• Politics The barons of the PSOE are erased from the great act of Pedro Sánchez for the 40 years of the victory of Felipe González

The PSOE has rectified and is finally going to send invitations to the act of homage to the 40th anniversary of the victory in the 1982 general elections to all the socialist deputies who won a seat in those elections, including

Alfonso Guerra

.

In addition, it is expected that the heads of the list in each Andalusian province, and among them was the now condemned by the ERE

Manuel Chaves

, occupy the first row of the act, although the main interventions will be those of the former president

Felipe González

and the current head of the Executive ,

Pedro Sánchez

, according to Ferraz sources.

In this way, the party meets the declarations of Guerra, former Vice President of the Government, number two of the PSOE and one of the architects of that absolute majority, who announced this Tuesday that he was not invited to this meeting, which is being held this Saturday in Seville.

Subsequently, the Andalusian PSOE reported that the provincial leadership of the PSOE in Seville is going to send an invitation to Alfonso Guerra for the aforementioned act and has indicated that he was "one of the great protagonists" of that victory.

Now the aforementioned sources add that this same provincial directorate will also invite the rest of the deputies who won seats for the PSOE in this autonomous community in the elections of October 28, 1982. In Andalusia they won

43 deputies

, of the 202 they got in all of Spain , a record that has not been broken to date.

In Ferraz, however, they do not hide their discomfort with Guerra, who also stated that he was not surprised not to be invited.

Thus, they point out that the PSOE remains the same as when it was founded

143 years ago

and continues to defend the interests of the working class, while others have moved their position.

"I liked the War better than before," says a prominent leader.

Those will be the only people who will be expressly invited, according to the same sources, who stress that the act is open and therefore "the 185,000 socialist militants" are invited.

Zapatero will not go

The act will be starred by Felipe González and Pedro Sánchez, who will deliver the main speeches of the day.

Before them, the president of the party, Cristina Narbona

, the deputy general secretary,

María Jesús Montero

, the general secretary of the PSOE-A,

Juan Espadas

and the mayor of Seville,

Antonio Muñoz

, will speak at a table of four

, as confirmed. sources from the PSOE leadership.

The message to be conveyed will revolve around the role of Spain in Europe over the last few decades, from Felipe's government until now.

"Europe will have an important role in the speech" of Sánchez, point out from Ferraz.

However, former Prime Minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, who will be traveling to Brazil to attend the second round of the presidential elections that take place this Sunday, will not attend.

Nor will there be a special call for the members of the Executive at that time nor for the ministers of the first socialist government that was born from those elections.

list heads

In the first row, therefore, would sit the head of the list in each of the provinces that were: Alfonso Guerra, in Seville;

José Antonio Amate

, in Almería;

Manuel Chaves, in Cadiz;

Guillermo Galeote

, in Córdoba --died in 2021--,

Pedro Cerezo Galán

, in Granada;

Carlos Navarrete

, in Huelva, the former Foreign Minister

Fernando Morán

--who died in 2020-- in Jaén and

José Antonio Griñán

.
