The future of the party Survey of all the PP barons: "Feijóo brings us closer to Moncloa"
Analysis The PP repudiates "immaturity" and bets on the safe
If the barons of the PP have joined forces, all as one, to force the farewell of Pablo Casado and the enthronement of Alberto Núñez Feijóo, it is not only because they have lost confidence in the possibilities of governing of their still leader.
It is also because they want a change in the organizational model in their party, so that the territorial organizations gain more weight and have more freedom of action.
Precisely, on the path of what one of them was already doing: Feijóo himself.
EL MUNDO
has asked all the barons
the same question: What changes should come out of the extraordinary congress of the PP?
And there is consensus that one of the main ones is that, from now on, his party should be built more from the territories towards the top, and not the other way around.
And that is something in which the one who is called to be the future leader of the PP agrees.
The Galician baron believes that the ideal is to "decentralize the party", according to sources close to him.
«
Genoa
has to be a sum, it cannot be a structure of the capital and for the capital, but must help the territories so that collaboration is full», he summarizes -without accusing Casado- in the PP of
Galicia
.
Feijóo, not in vain, is already a leader with a marked "peripheral" character, they remember.
And that will be reflected in the appointments he makes, although he has not yet spoken "with anyone" to accompany him on his project, when he takes the step.
In Feijóo's team they insist that his idea would be to recover ministerable veterans, as this newspaper advanced on Saturday.
Fátima Báñez, Román Escolano, Íñigo de la Serna
or
Fernando Martínez-Maíllo
would appear in that pool
, but in the Galician PP they assure that he will not announce his team until the last day.
For now there is only one name on the table: Esteban González Pons, who will lead the Organizing Commission of the Congress, in which there will be one person from each community, as a first gesture of autonomy.
"There are territorial particularities that do not have to be fought, but defended: you cannot do politics the same in
Extremadura
as in the
Valencian Community
," they explain in the team of the baron pointed out by all as a substitute for Casado.
The barons who were bordered predict a PP "from the bottom up"
Feijóo's message is subscribed in many of the main baronies surveyed by this newspaper.
Isabel Díaz Ayuso, for example, believes that a PP must come out of the extraordinary congress in April that gives more "support and confidence to the regional executives", with "joint strategies between them" and knowing how to "combine the peculiarities of each one, because
Madrid
, for example, the discourse is as national as it is regional and must always exercise a strong opposition to any attack against freedom».
Alfonso Fernández Mañueco, acting president of
Castilla y León
, believes that "a stronger, united, inclusive party will come out of Congress, in which the territorial organizations will have more voice and weight."
"Castilla y León is a strength of the PP, which is a party of all and for all," he adds.
The president of the PP of Extremadura, José Antonio Monago, is also very clear: «We must recover the dialogue within the organization.
Spain is an Autonomous State and the main party in our country must adapt its structure to that reality».
Alejandro Fernández
, leader of the Catalan PP, emphasizes that "a more united party in its various structures" will come out of the congress.
The popular regional leaders' criticism of their party's immediate past is crystal clear.
Another of those who most yearn for the change of model is the president of the PP of
Cantabria
.
María José Sáenz de Buruaga
calls for "a new form of relationship and joint work with territorial structures."
"This party is structured from the bottom up," she opposes Casado.
The Galician leader has not yet spoken with any former leader to reinstate him
The president of
Andalusia
, Juanma Moreno, assures this newspaper that "the PP electorate does not like the division."
“Our electorate wants a party that is solely focused on finding solutions to people's serious problems, such as rising prices and unemployment.
And that is what you have to dedicate yourself to », she adds.
The head of the Murcian Executive, Fernando López Miras, thinks in similar terms: «We have all had a bad time, but we have to take advantage of this situation to reemerge even stronger;
We should take it as an opportunity."
For
Paco Núñez
, president of the
Popular
Party of
Castilla-La Mancha
, it is time for "the participation of all the members of this party" and for a "permanent dialogue of the governing bodies" to take place with "all the members of the PP, from its base affiliates and councilors to its regional structures have to be a hallmark of this new stage.
Another voice that joins
on the record
to this majority current of the barons in pursuit of a party more committed to the territories is
José Ignacio Ceniceros
, president of the PP of
La Rioja
.
What change would straighten the course?
"A reinforced PP in its territorial structure, with a binding leadership, in which all members and voters are represented and with an exciting project for all Spaniards," he answers.
Juan José Imbroda , who leads the
Melilla
PP,
expresses himself in similar terms
: «It is essential that Feijóo be president and that there be a greater connection between the national leadership and the territorial ones».
