Carlos Angrisano Girauta, until now general secretary of New Generations of the PP, has decided to resign from all his positions within the party and also request his deregistration as a member after more than a decade linked to the party. In his farewell, the young leader has justified his departure due to what he considers a distancing between the party and the ideas that, he affirms, led him to join 14 years ago.
Angrisano, nephew of Vox MEP Juan Carlos Girauta, announced his decision through a message published on his personal account on the social network X. In it, he assures that the Popular Party “has stopped defending the values for which many of us joined”, and concludes with an explicit message: “For consistency, I ask for the vote for Vox. It is time to defend our ideas and Spain without fear.”
Tensions with Bea Fanjul
His departure comes after a period of internal tensions. According to PP sources consulted by the outlet ElConstitucional.es, Angrisano had for some time maintained a complicated relationship -"very bad"- with the national president of Nuevas Generaciones of the Popular Party, Bea Fanjul. These same sources assure that the discrepancies came from a long time ago and that the youth leader had been distancing himself from the party's leadership for some time.
Furthermore, last summer he was dismissed as an advisor to the PP in the European Parliament, a decision that, according to the same sources confirm to 'ElConstitucional.es', came because over time he began to spend a large part of the year outside Europe for personal reasons.
With his resignation, Angrisano puts an end to a career of more than a decade within the Popular Party and publicly places himself in the political orbit of Vox, a party in which his uncle, Juan Carlos Girauta, is a member.
