García-Egea, in the face of the chaos of defective masks: "It is a national emergency that health professionals have protective equipment" Video conference of President Casado with regional PP presidents

El secretario general, Teodoro García Egea


Holders of their statements to the media:

  1. In the absence of reliable data on those affected by coronavirus: "If we do not know the size of the problem, we will not be able to reach the solution."

  2. “Everything is leaks, probe balloons and rectifications. Five weeks have passed and now they tell us that the data of affected persons that they offer is not correct. Is no one going to take responsibility for this very serious negligence?

  3. He regrets how the Spanish see that "while the propaganda does not stop, the masks do not arrive." "Mr. Sánchez, it is a national emergency that health professionals have all protective equipment. We are the country with the highest number of infected health personnel ”, he says.

  4. “It is worth of so much propaganda and survey. I ask the government to stop so many mistakes and bungling at once and start managing this crisis professionally. If you need help, here we are ”, he adds.

  5. He explains that we are seeing how "the lack of government foresight remains." “They did not foresee anything before 8M and after the declaration of the State of Alarm they continue improvising day by day. We have the worst government at the worst time, "he says.

  6. It demands that the Government "put an end to the scandal of not satisfying benefits to the 4 million workers covered by ERTE, who have not been paid in April."

  7. Announces that the PP will resort to the decree on the occupation of housing by Minister Ábalos because it creates "legal insecurity" due to its difficult fit in the Constitution and concern for citizens because "it is not clear if it can open the way to de facto expropriations and legalization of occupations "

  8. He describes as “absurd” that Sánchez leaves Iglesias the “economic agenda” and points out that the Government has left SMEs and the self-employed to their fate. "At zero income, zero taxes," he stresses as the measure that the Executive has to implement.

  9. He stresses that the main error in the Government's economic policy is that it does not provide liquidity to SMEs and the self-employed “the true lungs and job creators of our economy”. "When the curtain rises on the economy, thousands of self-employed will not be able to raise the blind," he argues.

  10. He criticizes Celáa's “occurrences” proposing general passes to the students that the experts reject and the PP will not support. "The one who will not have a general approval is Sánchez, who is generating a social alarm" with his measures.

  11. He proposes to RTVE that he “invite” Sánchez as he has done today with Minister Duque and Fernando Simón in a children's program so that he tells all Spaniards “how to buy masks”.

  12. He extends the PP's hand to the Government to "manage the crisis with professionalism and seriousness", but reminds him that "loyalty is not complicity". “We have already shown Sánchez our loyalty by supporting extensions of the state of alarm. A loyalty that it does not find in its own government partners ”.

  13. Remember that "the Popular Party, as always, has been loyal to the Spanish and is ready to help end this health crisis that plagues our country as soon as possible."

  14. He reiterates the request to Sánchez to establish an extra pay for the toilets during the state of alarm, the gross salary for the rest of the workers in essential sectors and the abolition of inheritance and donation taxes to the relatives of those killed by the virus.

  15. He affirms that President Casado has transferred the party leadership in the CCAA to continue making a "useful and rigorous opposition" and to continue presenting initiatives in their respective parliaments.

  16. He denounces that the Government does not want to impose the national mourning that the PP asks for and announces that the PP will promote initiatives in the Autonomous Communities, as it is already doing in the City Councils, to establish it.

  17. Transmits "condolences, support and affection" from all the Popular Party, to the families of the fatal victims of the coronavirus that especially affects our elders, those who were the children of the postwar period, the adults of the Transition and the grandparents who With their pensions, they helped their families to cope with the crisis of 2008. It also transfers all "strength to the sick who are fighting to win this battle."
