The president of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, has stated that if the general strike called for this Wednesday, 11 November, "is a strike against the opposition," it becomes "an absurdity that does not exist in any country in the European Union."

He also emphasized that the call comes just one day after the State funeral for the victims of the second rail accident and, in his view, "dispenses with all the principles of sensitivity and respect for the citizens of the country," as he said this Monday in an interview on the program 'En boca de todos' on Cuatro, as reported by Europa Press.

"Seeing the vice president, who now wants to be president of the ILO, egging on the unions, so that they carry out a general strike, it is an unprecedented absurdity," the leader of the 'populares' has said, stressing at the same time that "this never happened" in Spain.

Regarding the snap election, Feijóo has said that it was carried out to "cut off judicial investigations, to cut off the case files, so that the judges stop investigating and stop avoiding rulings, so that the UCO and the UDEF do not continue all the way in the case files that there are, which are case files that directly affect the Partido Socialista".
