Alegría hopes that Feijóo will bring "realistic proposals" to the Senate debate and not his "catastrophizing" policy

He labels the PP's fiscal proposal as "failed": "It takes as a reference the economic policy that has led the United Kingdom to agonize"

MADRID, 16 Oct. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The spokeswoman for the PSOE and Minister of Education and FP, Pilar Alegría, has appealed to the leader of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, to bring "realistic" proposals to the Senate debate next Tuesday and not a policy of "demolition and catastrophism".

"I would like to be positively surprised if the PP is capable of putting forward a realistic and positive proposal with the country's social majority in mind," Alegría said at a press conference at the PSOE headquarters, in which he lamented that "the only thing" that has been found by the 'popular' is "nothingness" and "negationism".

For Alegría, for the PP to offer an "alternative" would be "good for Spain and the citizenry", but he believes that for the moment "there is no alternative" as, in his opinion, the general secretary of the PP and spokesperson for the Group made clear Popular, Cuca Gamarra, on Thursday in the Congress debate on the anti-crisis measures of the Government and the European Council in Prague.

"It only took 50 seconds in the mouth of Mrs. Gamarra to show us that there is no alternative in the PP", the minister has disfigured.

In this sense, he stressed that the PSOE is going to the debate in the Senate with its "clear" project against a PP "without direction, focused on its own game" and with no prospect of "leading a real alternative for Spain." "We find Feijóo nothing, that we listen to him talk and talk and sometimes nobody understands anything," he added.

"The Feijóo effect does not exist, until now there was ignorance about him and that helped him, but now we hear him speak without saying anything (...) or seeking to benefit his own, those who have the most," he added.

In this context, he has censured the measures proposed by the PP in the face of the crisis because they are based on "cuts in rights and public services." "The PP draws on old recipes of cuts and austerity for workers and tax gifts for the wealthiest," he warned, to vindicate the government's commitment to social measures.

Thus, he has branded the PP's tax proposal as "failed": "They take as a reference the economic policy that has led the United Kingdom to its death throes and that had as a half star the general lowering of taxes for the rich."

"The proposal that Feijóo defends in Spain has lasted 40 days in the United Kingdom," he warned. The British government reversed its fiscal plan.

On the other hand, Alegría has indicated that the talks to reach an agreement that allows the renewal of the General Council of the Judiciary (CGPJ) are progressing "reasonably well", although he has demanded "discretion and prudence" in this regard.
