Citizens believe that the Government should resign after the "devastating" order of the Supreme Court against its reform

MADRID, 14 Feb. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The spokesperson for Ciudadanos in Congress, Inés Arrimadas, considers that a "decent" government would have to resign after consulting the, in her opinion, "devastating" order of the Supreme Court known on Monday, which maintains the disqualification sentence of 13 years for Oriol Junqueras and censures the criminal reform undertaken by members of the Executive.

As Arrimadas pointed out at a press conference from Congress, the order is "a call for help from the Judiciary to the Legislative Branch in the face of the abandonment and attack that it has suffered from the Government." The text is "devastating for the Government", she has underlined, before affirming that any decent Executive "would have to resign" having seen it.

Along these lines, he stressed that the Government "does not have the technical, political or moral legitimacy to approach the Penal Code again" because "it has destroyed it in favor of rapists, coup leaders and corrupt people." "That is the legacy that (Pedro) Sánchez will have, the best defender of criminals in Spain", he has riveted.

Ciudadanos already greeted the decision of the Supreme Court on Monday, stressing that it maintains the disqualification of Junqueras despite the "reform" of the Criminal Code that, in their opinion, has been promoted by the Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, "tailored" to the leaders of the independence process of 2017.
