The president of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, has denounced this Thursday that in Spain "You pay more, you receive less" after new data became known about the railway accident in Adamuz (Córdoba) on January 18 and about the blackout on April 28, which in his opinion evidence a serious lack of management on the part of the Government.

In a message disseminated on the social network X, Feijóo has echoed the information that suggests that new audios would demonstrate that Red Eléctrica knew three months before the blackout that the system presented failures, without the necessary measures having been adopted to prevent it.

The opposition leader also refers to the report prepared by the Civil Guard and sent to the Court of First Instance of Montoro (Córdoba), square number 2, where it is detailed that the track was already broken 22 hours before the derailment of the Iryo train occurred. In a matter of seconds, that convoy ended up colliding with an Alvia at the height of Adamuz, which caused, on the afternoon of Sunday, January 18, the death of 46 people and left more than 120 injured.

In this context, the PP leadership has intensified pressure on the Executive. This Wednesday, the party's general secretary, Miguel Tellado, and the deputy secretary of the Treasury, Juan Bravo, again demanded the resignation of the Minister of Transport, Óscar Puente, considering that there was "continued negligence resulting in death". "How many deaths deserve a dismissal or a resignation according to Pedro Sánchez?", Bravo asked, demanding immediate political accountability.

Feijóo had already hardened his discourse against Pedro Sánchez's Government in recent hours, accusing it of "taking" money from citizens through what he defines as a "fiscal hell," while, according to him, public services deteriorate, Spain leads the child poverty rate in the European Union, and young people are forced to delay their emancipation beyond 30 years of age.

During the closing of the event "You pay more, you receive less: against the tax hell of the Sánchez Government", organized by the PP in Madrid, the popular leader maintained that "Decadence in Spain has been growing at the same rate as taxes. It's the world upside down", thus linking the high tax burden with the worsening of social indicators and the management of key infrastructures.
