The president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, gave a well-attended speech this Monday, February 27, at the Círculo Ecuestre.

Within the framework of her eighth visit to Barcelona since she took office in the Madrid community, the president of the Popular Party in the Spanish capital launched a message of union and integrity, in which she called to "govern for all and watch over minorities , instead of confronting people”, alluding to the Catalan government.

After the introduction of Enrique Lacalle, vice president of the institution, and the presentation of the playwright and actor Albert Boadella, Ayuso announced that she had arrived in Barcelona with the intention of "give voice and ear to non-separatist Catalonia once again". The representative of the PP defined separatism as "a poisoned, diabolical and anti-human arrow that forces those who one day ate together to hate each other."

During the parliament, Isabel Díaz Ayuso outlined an “open, plural and inclusive” Madrid society and declared herself open to strengthening ties with Barcelona and Catalonia, “together we would be unbeatable. Living together with loyalty and collaboration we would have great achievements”.

Politics has taken advantage of parliament to boast of the "entry of Microsoft with three new data centers" in Madrid. In turn, she confirmed her aspiration to "achieve full employment" and "the result of a community with the lowest public debt and taxation in Spain."

 

During the final part of the speech, the representative of the Popular Party reproached that "the President of the Government allows what the separatists have been perpetrating for decades: expel the armed forces, the Civil Guard and not respect the Head of State." He also said that "suffocating taxes, shooting public debt to a historical record and pointing out and threatening businessmen, as they are doing now with supermarket chains, banks or energy companies" are "regular practices of the President of the Government's project, Pedro Sánchez", which must be "urgently eradicated".

The leader of the Popular Party in Madrid has demanded that Sánchez give explanations about the Mediator case of alleged corruption in which former PSOE deputy Juan Bernardo Fuentes, alias Tito Berni, is involved: "Tito Berni is going to bring down this Government." "There would be much more talk about it if an unnecessary motion of no confidence had not crossed the line, which will be a lure against the PP in the coming months", she lamented about the initiative registered this Monday by Vox.

Isabel Díaz Ayuso ended her speech with a standing ovation from the public, made up of more than 200 members of the Círculo Ecuestre who listened attentively to the statements by the leader of the Community of Madrid.
