Alberto Núñez Feijóo defends the pacts that the PP has reached with Vox, despite the fact that the PSOE was the most voted list, and tries to turn the page on his partner’s denialism, which has dragged him into various agreements to eliminate the councils of Equality or to omit references to sexist violence from programmatic documents. “Macho violence is obvious. It seems that the obvious should not call our attention that it is not in the texts”, he said in an interview on Hora 25 (Cadena SER) in which he has not ruled out that Santiago Abascal is part of his eventual government, despite the fact that he has reiterated that his intention is to govern alone.
The PP will flag its equality policies for 23J: erase the legacy of the PSOE and attack Irene Montero

The PP candidate has blamed Pedro Sánchez’s PSOE for this situation. The conservative leader’s argument is that the Socialists should allow him to arrive in Moncloa by assuming that he has no other formations to agree with apart from the extreme right. “We have reached the absurdity that when the PSOE wins, it will govern; and when the PP wins, the elections will have to be repeated, because the PP cannot govern with anyone”, he stated.
“He does not have any legitimacy to criticize him because he would not only facilitate it, he would impose it,” Feijóo added, who has assured that he would abstain to facilitate the investiture of Sánchez if he is the one with the most votes so that he does not support the independentistas, despite that this circumstance already occurred in 2019 and the PP did not do it and he, who was one of the barons with the most prestige, did not raise his voice to put pressure on Pablo Casado.
“There Vox and its affirmations”, Feijóo has dispatched about the denial of Abascal’s party regarding gender violence and has defended that, in the case of the Valencian Community, equality policies will correspond to the PP through the president, Carlos Mazón, and that it will preserve the law against regional gender violence.
“We say that we cannot sign with someone who is convicted of verbal violence,” he boasted about forcing the departure of the Vox candidate, Carlos Flores, convicted of sexist violence, and that he will end up in Congress, before downplaying it by recalling that It was “20 years ago”. “He is a professor of Constitutional Law, it is true; he has complied with the sanctions, it is true; It has been produced 20 years ago, it is true; He had a tough divorce, and it therefore led to verbal abuse towards his ex-wife ”, he has justified.
He keeps his salary a secret
“Let people assess whether or not they like the agreements with Vox,” he concluded before recalling that the PP agreed with the extreme right in the Community of Madrid or Andalusia and then obtained an absolute majority. Even so, he maintains that he has “no other objective than to govern alone.” “It is not arrogance, I think that Spain deserves to have a solid government and that it is not wasting time. We have been lost for five years and with many problems”, added the PP candidate, who has assured that there is a “stagnation” in the Spanish economy, despite the fact that it is one of the fastest growing in the euro area. His argument is that he has not recovered the GDP prior to the pandemic, although he ignores the specificities of the Spanish productive sector, such as dependence on tourism, and he has attributed the good figures solely to the increase in public debt.
At one point in the interview, Feijóo replied that he would not have time to promote the budgets for 2023, which have already been approved and, realizing, he has redirected his response and has promised to present those for next year. He has also assured that with the PP pensions have “always” grown at least according to the CPI, despite the fact that he has questioned the revaluation according to the growth of prices that the Government approved, knocking down the sustainability factor that Mariano Rajoy imposed.
Feijóo has justified the opacity into which he has plunged the economic team that would accompany him in the Government, although he has praised the former Andalusian minister, Juan Bravo: “I believe that a candidate cannot begin to appoint ministers.”
The leader of the PP has refused to clarify what his salary is, despite the fact that he has said that what he charges is declared in the Senate and it is not so. The declaration of assets and activities that the Galician presented in the Upper House only reflects that he presides over the PP, but not the amount that he receives. “My remuneration comes from the Senate and from the party. All of the people who have been on the management committee have their salaries increased by the party”, said the popular candidate with the commitment to reveal this information when he has to deliver the new declaration at the end of the legislature.
