POLITICS Cuca Gamarra: "I do not accept equality lessons from the left"
POLITICS Feijóo, the Galician king allergic to marriage turns 60: "A wedding is a pain in the ass"
It was the only consensus decision made in the seven deadly days between Pablo Casado and the barons who decided to throw themselves out of the window of the seventh floor of Genoa 12 .
Until the "urgent and extraordinary" PP congress puts its ermine cape on Núñez Feijóo,
this 47-year-old from Rioja will be in charge of piloting a
political formation that has embarked on a path with no possibility of return.
Concepción Gamarra Ruiz-Clavijo
, Law graduate (University of Deusto), acquired in 2011 to be the first female mayor of her city, Logroño, with an absolute majority.
She is not a woman very given to the fuss, nor the hubbub.
She flees from "frontism" like Oliver
, her Maltese bichon, like magnetized water.
Pablo Casado placed her as parliamentary spokesperson despite being a supporter of the Soraya Saénz de Santamaría candidacy in the Extraordinary Congress of 2018. She Moderate in tone, center-right in its purest form, she often says that she is specializing in breaking "glass ceilings ";
She was also the first president of the
New Generations of La Rioja, although this did not prevent her from losing
(100 votes) the primary elections in his community against José Ignacio Ceniceros in 2017.
"My political concern began very young... I was always interested in politics, so they didn't have to insist much to take the step either... I chose to go on the lists to the town hall because that way I could make it
compatible with my professional office as a lawyer."
Her political father was the eternal president of La Rioja (20 years), Pedro Sanz
, her great mentor and adviser.
Gamarra collects in 2011 a council in bankruptcy and leaves it eight years later with a surplus.
It is the conviction of the facts and the management against the vain talk;
soul of municipalism, he held for some years
the vice-presidency of the Spanish Federation of Municipalities and Provinces.
Cuca
, with her soul as a mayor, makes the leap to
Madrid
as a national deputy in the 2019 general elections. Tenacious in her goals, determined, Stajanovist.
"I am a curranta above anything else
and of solid humanist, democratic and liberal convictions."
She arrives in
Madrid
as a deputy from her land in 2019 and makes the seat compatible with the party's deputy general secretary for
Social Policy
.
Pablo Casado
-whom he has known since the times of the New Generations- notices her because of her negotiating capacity as a hammer not exempt from waist and sarcasm "to the pata la llana".
Cuca Gamarra speaking in Congress
The family
Single, she joined a law firm in
Logroño
after finishing her training as a lawyer before being convinced by
Sanz
to take the step into politics.
She is the oldest of three siblings and her family is one of the basic props.
"At the end of the day, when the political thing is over, I will always have my return to Logroño and
my office."
Godmother of her niece Candela
de Ella, she has her father
De Ella Alfonso
(former manager of a transport company) and her mother, a nursing assistant, as her main human supports.
They don't lose debris from her daughter's public career.
In his free time, he prefers novels to escape
from the real world and, if possible, listen to music by U2, one of his favorite bands.
Among her hobbies is also modern art, especially urban art that she promoted during her time as mayor of Logroño.
Her European city par excellence is Berlin, "which is constantly reinventing itself."
The practice of sports is one of the hobbies of the general coordinator.
Few know that she has run five marathons, including New York,
Florence
and
Budapest
and many other half marathons.
"I am a long-distance runner in sports and in life."
He has no problem admitting that he is a "big eater"
, especially garden products such as artichokes or asparagus, naturally, washed down with a good
Rioja
as it could not be otherwise.
"In my years as mayor I learned to listen to people and that learning hasn't gone bad for me...", she says.
Curiously, one of the historical icons is
Margaret Thatcher
who said that in politics "when you want something to be said, tell it to a man and when you want something to be done, tell it to a woman.
You have 30 days to go.
