Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has challenged PP leader Alberto Núñez Feijóo and Vox leader Santiago Abascal to table the motion of censure "as soon as possible" if they are so convinced that the coalition government has lost its parliamentary majority.
Ata press conference following the meeting of the PSOE Federal Executive, Sanchez stressed that the most democratic thing is not to force the opponent to resign "with some truths and many lies," but to articulate an alternative parliamentary majority and explain what country project they have.
He has advised Feijóo and Abascal to do so as soon as possible because after the summer decisions can be made on the PP's "many lawsuits" and "you will see who the real criminals are." "The elections are every four years, it has been and will continue to beso, "he said. "My duty as captain is to take the helm and support the progressive coalition government. "
Moreover, the President of the Spanish Government and leader of the PSOE has assured us that his party is a "clean institution" that will never act like the PP and Vox in the field of corruption, so "it will not pursue the accusers or hammer the evidence."
Sánchez made this comparison at the press conference he offered at the federal headquarters of the PSOE following the first meeting of the party leadership following the resignation of Santos Cerdán as Secretary of Organization following a report by the UCO.
"The PSOE is a clean institution and, since I have the honour of leading it, this is the only alleged case of corruption affecting my organization so far," he stressed in reference to the situation. "We can make mistakes, endure betrayals, but the PSOE is a clean institution," he reiterated.
Committee of Inquiry and appearance in Congress
On the other hand, Sanchez has announced that he will promote a committee of inquiry in the Congress of Deputies to "know the truth about the Koldo case" and will also appear in the lower house to explain this matter.
Sanchez has said that he will appear in Congress on the first possible day to "give the necessary explanations and answer the questions of all parliamentary groups," he said.
In addition, the PSOE leader has denounced that the village houses " have been attacked again this weekend. "Sánchez has called on the media, the PP and Vox to publicly condemn" the attacks that our village houses are systematically suffering. "
Machismo
Finally, the head of the Spanish Government has expressed, on behalf of the socialist leadership, his "disgust" and "anger" at the audio between former Minister José Luis Ábalos and his former adviser Koldo García.
"They are absolutely incompatible with the feminist values of this organization and with our identity as a party," said Sanchez. In this context, the leader of the socialists has addressed "especially" women, referring to the audios of Ábalos and Koldo in which they talk about the exchange of women. "We are disgusted (...) is the unanimous feeling of the Federal Committee," he added.
