• Catalonia.Ayuso offers Catalan businessmen 'refuge' in Madrid

Isabel Díaz Ayuso

, president of the

Community of Madrid

, will be in

Barcelona

this weekend

to launch the election campaign for the Catalan PP.

Alejandro Fernández

, popular candidate for the Generalitat, has encouraged Ayuso to attend a meeting in person on Saturday morning.

Madrid government sources have confirmed the trip of their leader on Thursday afternoon.

Other barons, due to mobility restrictions and perimeter closures that have been imposed by the pandemic, will participate in the campaign electronically.

It is not the first time that

Ayuso has

backed Fernández.

He did so at the end of November, in pre-campaign, on a visit to Barcelona in which he defended the tax reduction and attacked the educational law promoted by Minister Isabel Celaá.

The economy and the defense of educational freedom are, in fact, two of the main axes of the PP's campaign.

Apart from the leader of the PP, Pablo Casado, who plans to travel to Catalonia for seven of the fifteen days that the campaign will last, the rest of the PP leadership will also be fully involved in the elections.

The party's deputy secretary for Organization, Ana Beltrán, will do so in particular, who has been in Tarragona since Thursday and plans to visit all the Catalan provinces in the coming days.

This landing of Genoa to support the Catalan PP is also due to the lesser territorial presence that the party has in this community, which touched down in the December 2017 elections, achieving only four seats.

Now he aspires to double his deputies.

The PPC will also have the support of the exporter of the Popular Group in the Congress of Deputies Cayetana Álvarez de Toledo, who this Friday has advanced on TVE that will have an act in Barcelona with the PPC candidate next week.

"Whatever he asks of me, I'll be happy to do it," he added.

OBJECTIVE: STOP VOX

Casado, who has visited Catalonia fifteen times since the beginning of November, with events in all the provinces, will be accompanying Fernández tonight at the start of the PPC electoral campaign held in Barcelona.

In addition, it will return to this autonomy on Sunday - presumably to Badalona - according to party sources advance to Europa Press.

The 'popular' they say their data rule out

a

Sorpasso

of

Vox

.

However, they do not hide their concern about the fact that Santiago Abascal's party may enter the Catalan Parliament with force, as almost all published polls predict.

In this situation, sources from the leadership of the PP consider that Casado is the best asset to visualize that the Popular Party is "the only alternative to sanchismo and independence."

"We are the common house of all", is one of the messages that the 'popular' repeat.
