Why It Matters
The article refers to information published by El Mundo about the approval of bonuses in Adif and the political response to DANA.
The president of Vox, Santiago Abascal, asked this Saturday, November 7, "what was the objective of the Adif leadership" under the Government of Pedro Sánchez and has denounced that the organization has spent money "on nieces, on bribes, on placements and on bonuses."
In a public event held in Guadalajara at the Pedro Díaz Auditorium before nearly 2,000 people, the Vox leader questioned whether the objective of the Adif leadership was to "destroy high speed" or "kill more than a hundred Spaniards."
"What was the objective of Pedro Sánchez's cronies? Why doesn't Pedro Sánchez resign when he sees that all those he has placed are taking the money in the middle of the massacre, in the middle of the dead?" he said, alluding to the information published this Saturday by El Mundo, which suggests that the former president of Adif Marco de la Peña would have approved the management's bonuses shortly before resigning.
Abascal, who has called for a "gigantic mobilization" for next November 29, has warned that "an existential election" will be decided at the polls and has assured that "Spain cannot resist 4 more years of this mafia."
The president of Vox has also referred to the displays of support from the socialist militancy, which he has defined as "fanaticized", to the former Minister of Transport, Óscar Puente, this Friday in Valencia.
"Yesterday, in front of Pedro Sánchez and with Pedro Sánchez standing, we heard the cry of Óscar, Óscar, Óscar. We have not heard the cry of the name of the victims of Adamuz, Urda, DANA or the blackout, no: Óscar, Óscar, Óscar," he criticized.
In this sense, he has said that he is not going to run a campaign with "little dances, jokes and rubbish, which tragically end with 70 deaths", and has pointed out that "now they no longer dare to dance."
He has also referred to the decision to withdraw olive oil to control prices, stating that "in the meantime we bring oil from Morocco and Tunisia."
Abascal, who has presented his campaign axes "national priority deregulation and remigration", has also criticized the Ministry of Health's campaign that reminds migrants without legal residence of their right to be treated in the public health system while their file is being processed.
