The candidate for the presidency of the Government in the general elections by Vox Santiago Abascal allowed himself a moment of improvisation in his campaign start speech at Hospitalet de Llobregat. It was when he spoke of the "coup d'etat" committed by the successive presidents of the Generalitat, "from Pujol to Torra" and the public began chanting the crushed slogan "Puigdemont to prison". It was then that Abascal replied: "And Torra to the dungeon", to the jubilation of the 2,000 people who attended this event.

And it is that Abascal took advantage of his first campaign act in one of the epicenters of the so-called 'red belt' to charge hard against the PSOE for "abandoning" all its voters and telling them that Vox "reaches out and tells them that this is his house and we will never abandon them. " "The greatest heritage you have is called Spain and we are not going to allow it to be taken away from us," said Abascal, who recalled that in Hospitalet, "the gigantic betrayal of socialism to its voters, left at the mercy of separatism for decades, is proven."

That is why he appealed to the origins in other parts of Spain of many inhabitants of these towns near Barcelona to remember that "the first betrayal of the PSOE was to leave them alone at the mercy of the crap of the PSC, depriving them of a national party and with traitors like Maragall , Montilla and the frivolous dancer Iceta, turned into second-rate caretakers on this earth, called charnegos and having to admit that their children, to survive, have embraced the separatist cause that called us beasts. "

He also indicated that the Socialists made a "systematic pact with the separatists discriminated against millions of Spaniards and Catalans in this land. They betrayed them by betting on a non-Hispanic mass immigration so that Hispanic brothers who spoke Spanish did not arrive here, they wanted it to be an immigration of Africans with the taxing problems of coexistence that they cause in all Catalonia, like the discrimination of Spaniards who are the last ones in the social helps ".

Abascal said that "we live moments of national emergency, of extreme gravity" and added that "they call it 'procés' since Catalonia has a coup d'etat with impunity from Pujol to Torra, passing through Mas and Puigdemont. They have all been enriched and national parties have let them do. " He stressed that "the problem of Catalonia is not resolved overnight, not even applying the law tomorrow. It will take decades to build affections."

That is why he considers that one must act against those who continue with the "coup d'etat" and who has "17,000 armed men, a TV3 that calls for demonstrations, education and a subject at the head of the Generalitat who calls terrorists with explosive committed citizens. " In this regard, he announced that the first step he will take if he is president of the Government is the arrest "and made available to Torra, the CDR's boss."

The Vox leader stressed that "we are here to take charge of the real problems of the Spaniards" and indicated that "the voters of the socialist party have felt betrayed. But we are not going to ask for the right or center vote, we come to call all Spaniards without distinction for the national emergency. " In addition, he asks for the vote for "an alternative, political, civil and patriotic, that follows the backbone of society, of united free men who live in harmony and respect their dead, be called Francisco Franco, Dolores Ibárruri or Lluís Companys, there are that to restore patriotism in schools, teaching a common history and schooling in the national language. Knowing Spanish there will be no discrimination. "

"The worst thing that can happen to a Catalan is to stop being Spanish," Abascal said, adding that "the right to decide belongs to all Spaniards, but not with the unity of Spain, which is an inheritance that is not touched." . That is why he appealed to legal referendums on immigration "so that the one who enters irregularly will be placed on the border", dissolve the Mossos and recover transferred powers or "what we do with terrorists, murderers or rapists, on that they do not let us vote, their priority was to take a dead man out of a grave after 44 years. "

Abascal also recalled that his party led the popular accusation against the separatist leaders condemned in the Supreme Court and stressed that they ask for the vote to confront in Congress the "progressive dictatorship" which, according to him, does not allow debate or vote on aspects that they interest most Spaniards, such as immigration, abortions, gender violence laws or autonomy. "We have come here because Spain deserves from us a greater ambition, a political alternative," said the candidate who affected the mayor of Barcelona, ​​Ada Colau the impediments to start the campaign in the Plaza de Sant Jaume: she is "a mayor cheater and prevaricator, who agrees with hooded street terrorists. "
