NO MEANS NO!

Sanchez tweeted thinking about those who doubt PSOE commitment to protect the unity of Spain: ”No means no. Independence is not possible. There will not be right to self determination. The constitution will not be violated. The problema of Catalunya is coexistence, not independence. There are only 2 ways: dialogue or confrontation’

Life imprisionment

Abascal said he was in favour of Life imprisionment for all kinds of sexual crimes. The leader of VOX also reiterated his opposition to Eutanásia and his willingness to derogate the abortion law.

State intervention in TV3 ?

PP candidate for Catalunya, Caytana Alvarez de Toledo defended that PP would impose the article 155(direct rule from Spain) ”for the time needed using the measures necessary for the correct exercise of autonomy”

Caytana argued that there are motives to intervene in several environments in the catalan public sphere and gave the catalan tv statio TV3 as an example. The candidate asked”Why would catalans pay for a tv that insults and mocks half of them?” The PP candidate added ”Either TV3 belongs to everyone or nobody” and criticized the lack of democracy in the tv station.

Some parties will revise their strategies

Pedro Sanchez, in an interview, didn’t exclude electoral pacts with any party except VOX and indirectly took aim at Ciudadanos ”Some parties that today say no, never ever may have to revise their strategies after the election”

The comment is obviously directed at Ciudadanos. It’s no secret that PSOE prefers to deal with Albert Rivera than with Pablo Iglesias. Rivera, exluded any chance of working with PSOE or Sanchez but in 2016 he also rejected helping PP in government and end up making an electoral pact with Rajoy. Will Rivera go back on his word again? I doubt it, but who knows?
