Rajoy to Parliament to defend the legitimacy of the government

Rajoy, before the parliament of Madrid, responded to the intervention of Jose 'Luis Abalos, who presented the motion of no confidence to the government, following the condemnations of the Gurtel case, and to the intervention of the premier candidate of the Socialist Workers' Party (Psoe ), Pedro Sanchez. The motion is an "act of irresponsibility" that "paralyzes the country", said the prime minister, in a harsh speech in which he accused Sanchez of not having a real interest in the Spaniards but of "wanting to trip the government" . Numerous applause interrupted Rajoy's speech, which had to prove the legitimacy of the government he led despite the heavy outcome of the maxi trial that sentenced twenty-nine people for corruption, and in which Rajoy's People's Party was not directly called in. lawsuit but it emerged that he benefited from "corrupt money". Pedro Sanchez invited Rajoy to resign at the end of the debate, pledging before the deputies to carry out a "clean" government. The situation of the Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy is complicated, closer to mistrust since the 5 deputies of the Basque PNV made it known that tomorrow they will vote on the socialist motion. The premier did not return to the courtroom for the afternoon session, which was instead attended by alternative prime minister Pedro Sanchez. The Canarian Coalition deputy, ally of the Rajoy government, who initially announced a vote against no confidence, has changed her position and will abstain. Some analysts do not rule out that Rajoy may resign before the vote to prevent Sanchez from becoming prime minister if he wins the mistrust.
