Page attacks the reform of the Penal Code: "It is not tolerable to agree to your own sentence with criminals"

He announces a legislative initiative against illegal referendums and says that the "criminals" are not sorry I continue to mark his roadmap

OCAÑA (TOLEDO), Dec. 13 (EUROPA PRESS) -

The president of Castilla-La Mancha, Emiliano García-Page, has considered that today is a "very hard" day due to the agreement between the Government and ERC to reduce the penalties for the crime of embezzlement, stressing that "it is not tolerable to agree with delinquents their own condemnation". He also stressed that the criminals are not repentant, but marking their road map towards independence.

"Yes, it is a hard moment that hurts me as a Spaniard and as a militant, although it is not an organic decision. I speak to you as president of the autonomous community, in the rank of absolutely affected", he added, in an appearance in which he has expressly committed to presenting a legislative initiative in the coming weeks --"vaccinated against changes of opinion"-- that "prevents consultations that do not affect all Spaniards".

"And I am willing to present an initiative to feel obliged as regional president to denounce before the Constitutional Court any attempt at official consultation that means that a few can speak on behalf of all," he indicated.

During a press conference after holding the Governing Council in Ocaña, he charged against ERC for having 'Esquerra' in its acronym when what they are defending with this maneuver is "pure privileges". And, furthermore, "they are imposing their conditions on the State."

In addition, he recalled that not only have the "criminals" not repented, but that "they are already marking their roadmap" to continue with the approach of possible future referendums.

He even recalled that by pardoning the prisoners of the 'process' they were not pardoned for this crime that is now being reformed, a crime that for him is "pure corruption".

To questions from the media, he said he agreed with statements by leaders such as Alfonso Guerra, assuring that it is a "difficult moment" and warning that "it is not forgotten."

"It matters to me that they take us for fools, me too. This is a serious moment for Spanish politics. One of those moments that remain etched in the collective retina. This really is making history," he said before pointing out that it is "very contrary" to the government's decision.

Very contrary, precisely, because it is "very consistent" with what the government of Pedro Sánchez heard some time ago, "before the elections."

For García-Page, it is not necessary to explain what is happening, "not even in the past, with meetings that will be useless."

"Most of what I see, I see from the headlines. Seeing that a Penal Code is agreed upon in two cafes at the last minute without a legal report, violates the five years that I invested in my law career," he said. .

But "95% of Spaniards know what is happening, Junqueras understands it, Aragonés understands it and Puigdemont understands it." "Basically it is what it seems. Or are we going to be wrong all the Spaniards? No man, no", has abounded.

After recalling that he himself has always said what he thinks within his party, --from González to Rubalcaba--, he added that "it is not tolerable to agree with criminals on their own sentence."

"Yes, it is a hard moment that hurts me as a Spaniard and as a militant, although it is not an organic decision. I speak to you as president of the autonomous community, in the rank of absolute affected," he added.

This time began "on October 1", and now those who celebrate are those of the second October 1. The reality is, for the president, that he regrets it "a lot, in form and in substance."

However, he has said that he does not endorse that the PP now calls for rebellion in the PSOE, recalling that part of the problem in Catalonia is the fault of the 'popular'.

In addition, he has considered that this movement will not fix the independence problem in Catalonia, since whoever is an independentist "will continue to be so".

"Only a naive, a saint, it is believed that this dissuades the independentistas from following their path", has addressed the leader of the Castilian-Manchego Executive. "From these powders, more sludge will come."
