If the debate between the five national candidates evidenced how Pedro Sánchez avoided rejecting the votes of independence, the debate between the heads of the list by Barcelona, held yesterday on TV3, showed that ERC is willing to return to collaborate with the socialist candidate to return him to The Moncloa
The leader of the Republican ranks, Gabriel Rufián, called to inflict an "incontestable defeat" on the PSOE in Catalonia to "sit Sanchez at the negotiating table and not be able to choose." That is, to force the socialist candidate to rely on independence to be invested if he revalidates his victory on 10-N. "In politics, nothing is free," Rufián added to the PSC representative in the debate, José Zaragoza, who came to replace Meritxell Batet, who was sick yesterday. In this way the ERC candidate clarified Sanchez that his party's abstention will be much more expensive on this occasion than in July, when the trial process had not yet been published.
"We want a strong left-wing government, with the rights we don't want to know anything," said the socialist Zaragoza, to prove that the PSOE continues to contemplate the separatist crutch to make Sanchez president no matter how much the PSOE candidate has hardened his speech against the Catalan independence.
Álvarez de Toledo and Arrimadas withdraw yellow ties
The compadreo between ERC and the PSC deserved the denunciation of the head of the list of the PP in Barcelona, Cayetana Álvarez de Toledo, who called the Catalan socialists "bleachers of nationalism", criticized their "collusion" with secessionism and asked the promoters of the process who "lose all hope" to consummate their independence project. «They will not achieve self-determination, Spain is a great rule of law. Duel with dignity. They have failed, ”proclaimed the popular , who, while going to the set, withdrew yellow ties through the halls of TV3 and threw them in the trash in protest to the use of Catalan public television facilities to promote the process.
Inés Arrimadas followed the example of Álvarez de Toledo and brandished a live yellow tie that also claimed to have started with his own hands. He did so while announcing to the director of TV3 and debate conductor, Vicent Sanchis, that the first measure that his party would apply if he achieved the revival of 155 would be his cessation. A warning that came after the moderator called Albert Rivera "Alberto."
The representative of Citizens and Vox, Ignacio Garriga, were overcome by the push of Alvarez de Toledo, who called the "massive regrouping of the constitutional vote" to guarantee the victory of the PP next Sunday and did not hesitate to engage with the Party chaired by Santiago Abascal for "renouncing the Constitution" by calling for the abolition of the autonomous State.
Independence demonstrates its division
But the division of the independence block was even more evident. Only the JxCat candidate, Laura Borràs, remained when she proposed that the independence formations form a single independence group in Congress.
Both the training led by Carles Puigdemont and the CUP reproached ERC for their flirting with the Socialists. «I am not your enemy», Rufian had to refute on repeated occasions before the pressure of his companions of cause, without arriving, at any time, to deny his eventual alliance with Sánchez.
