PP and PSOE become entangled with the economy

On the management that the Socialist Government has made during the current legislature, and this was revealed in the debate that the parliamentary spokesmen of the PSOE, PP, Sumar, PNV, ERC and EHBildu held last night.

As the president of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, did last Monday, the parliamentary spokesperson for the PP, Cuca Gamarra, again attacked the PSOE and, in this case, its parliamentary spokesperson, Patxi López, on the recovery of Spain after the economic crisis of the coronavirus, which broke out in 2020. Gamarra reiterated that Spain is the last country in the euro zone to have recovered its gross domestic product (GDP) from before the pandemic. That is, in 2019.

The popular spokesperson also accused the Government, and the PSOE, of hiding the real data of the discontinuous permanent workers. Gamarra asked how many workers are not employed and are not listed as unemployed. The popular spokesperson also recalled that hours before the Director General of Traffic, Pere Navarro, had corrected Sánchez, and acknowledged that, in 2024 there will be tolls on the highways.

López accused Gamarra of lying and recalled the arguments used by the Government and the PSOE regarding the recovery of the economy and social policies. For example, the revaluation of pensions with inflation or the 47% increase in the minimum interprofessional salary. From 735 euros to 1,080 euros per month.

The ERC spokesman, Gabriel Rufián, asked for a tax on large fortunes and, in this chapter, he referred to the emeritus King, Juan Carlos. He also requested an increase in the compensation for unfair dismissal. The PNV requested Social Security and its own framework of labor relations for the Basque Country.
