The president of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, believes that the Government of Pedro Sánchez is making it very difficult for his party to seek agreements such as the renewal of the General Council of the Judiciary, after the insults and attacks he launched against his leaders in the plenary session of control of Congress. But even so, Feijóo is willing to continue with his hand outstretched to reach agreements not with the Government, but to support the State, as he explained on RNE. One of those agreements would be the renewal of the General Council of the Judiciary (CGPJ), blocked since the end of 2018. The leader of the PP has promised to present his proposal for renewal and regeneration after the Andalusian elections.
Feijóo has accused the Government of lying and deceiving his party and all Spaniards with the crisis of the National Intelligence Center. In his opinion, there is a lack of explanations from Sánchez about the espionage and about the reasons that have led him to the sudden dismissal of Paz Esteban as director of the intelligence center.
The relationship of the PP with the Government right now is rarefied, according to the popular, and the insults of Sánchez, who called the leaders of the main opposition party “mugs”, have only served to worsen it even more.
For this reason, Feijóo has explained that the Government does not make it easy, and sees it necessary to cool down the tension generated, as he has underlined, from La Moncloa. Before the renewal of the General Council of the Judiciary, he has insisted that his intention is to reach an agreement, but that it includes a commitment for the regeneration of that body that affects judicial independence. The difference with the previous stage of the PP is that Feijóo does not put the legal reform as a red line prior to any pact attempt, although it is true that he has not yet explained what his concrete formula is to achieve this reinforcement of judicial independence. .
For now, he has made it clear that he is in favor of letting the Andalusian elections pass, on June 19, to cool down the political environment, and it will be then when he makes his specific proposal.
