Ayuso laminates the 'casadistas' of the PP in Madrid

• Ayuso appoints Alfonso Serrano 'number two' of the Madrid PP on the condition that he resign from the position of spokesman in the Assembly

Isabel Díaz Ayuso had not hidden that she wanted to carry out a profound renovation of the Madrid PP when she took charge of the formation.

So it has been.

And at least four of the senior officials who until now made up the leadership of the party and who have fallen out of the new organization chart have in common their affinity for Pablo Casado.

They are the secretary general until now,

, and the deputy secretaries of Organization,

;

of Territorial,

;

and of Studies and Programs,

.

Among the survivors there is

, mayor of Arroyomolinos, who was in charge of the Sectorial area: despite the fact that she is being investigated for an alleged case of administrative prevarication, she has the "absolute trust" of the new president of the formation.

In recent weeks Ayuso had slipped that

for those close to the former leader of the PP.

"

have all been Casadists, it's his thing, all that was missing", he came to affirm when he was insistently asked about it.

Of course, the regional leader had indicated that "a different thing" was the one who had questioned the "honorability" of her government in the matter of the commission of 55,850 euros that her brother charged for bringing masks from China during the first wave of the pandemic: «I am not going to forget that an attempt has been made to transfer something different.

That is something that I am going to take into account.”

Especially relevant is the departure of Camins,

for years and a person of his utmost confidence when he arrived at the Government of Puerta del Sol in 2019. In fact, he tried to convince her to become a counselor and also offered her the Spokesperson for the PP in the Assembly, positions that she declined.

The relationship between the two began to crack when the former general secretary was raised from Genoa as the

in the region and thus prevent the regional president and the mayor of Madrid, José Luis Martínez-Almeida, from concentrating too much power .

Her fidelity to Casado - also close to both since the three met in New Generations - in the internal struggle for organic control ended up blowing up all the bridges.

Espionage

Also the case of the attempted espionage to Ayuso's environment, in which the City Council of the capital was involved through the

(EMVS), has left casualties in the organization chart of the popular people of Madrid.

That matter ended up eroding the already tense relations between the councilor and the regional leader who are now trying to rebuild despite the fact that he was hardly mentioned by her throughout the Congress in which she has been enthroned as leader of the formation.

Although the municipal ranks retain five seats in the party's regional leadership with Almeida himself,

,

,

and

, the changes are significant, especially in the case of the latter.

The delegate for the Environment and Mobility of the capital has been relegated from the Electoral Vice-Secretariat to a member of the Autonomous Executive Committee, a position of much lower rank.

This coincides with the fact that Carabante is one of the members of Almeida's hard core and one of those indicated in the espionage case as a participant in the meeting to try to verify the case.

Álvaro González, president of the EMVS and until now Secretary of Organization of the PP of Madrid, who has been left without an organic position in the popular ranks, would also enter that group.

He was the one who had the conversation, published by this newspaper, with detective

to find out if the regional president had been followed up from the municipal company.

other outlets

There are more doubts about the reason why

has also been struck down from the first floor of Génova 13. The regional deputy was included in the 2019 electoral list by Ayuso herself, with whom she had a close friendship, but according to sources consulted by this newspaper in recent months could have approached the

environment .

In the National Executive of the PP of Alberto Núñez Feijóo they have also dispensed with the magistrate

, adviser in the Government of Ayuso, who until now occupied the Secretary of Justice and who was one of the star signings of the former president of the party.
