The Deputy Secretary of Education and Equality of the Popular Party, Jaime de los Santos, has denounced this Saturday that the political situation surrounding the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, is “rotten” and has maintained that the “national priority” is that “he calls elections”.
“Sanchismo has once again come face to face with the judges: Mr. Ábalos, Mr. Koldo García, again demonstrating to what extent the entire political reality that accompanied and continues to accompany Pedro Sánchez since he first arrived at the General Secretariat of his party and then to the presidency of the Government is rotten,” he has declared.
Furthermore, he has referred to a video published by The Objective, recorded during the PSOE Federal Committee in 2016, in which, according to De los Santos, Sánchez was seen “as what he is, a man without morals, without principles, willing not only to deceive citizens”, but also “his own colleagues”, and has added that he is “a man who reached the General Secretariat of the Socialist Party riding on the benefits of the prostitution from which his wife's family had lived”.
“He intended to hide some ballot boxes so that the vote would be hidden and it seems that (it was) the closest thing to a ballot rigging”, he has accused. Along those lines, he has insisted that the party's “corruption” has led Spain to be “more irrelevant every day” on the international stage.
“If there is a national priority, it is that Pedro Sánchez calls elections” to “return to the path of democracy” and recover “prestige,” he has maintained, in reference to the concept of national priority used in regional agreements between the PP and Vox.
"National priority" and rooting
“When we talk about national priority, what we are talking about is a serious policy in which massive regularizations of immigrants cannot be made without even knowing how many people we are talking about”, De los Santos has explained.
Regarding the concept of rootedness, he/she has pointed out that it implies that “those immigrants who come to Spain have, I believe it's not too much to ask, a work contract, that they know how we Spaniards are and that they are willing to be part of a culture” which is “generous” and not “xenophobic”, and urges the critics of these agreements to read them “in depth”.
