Iustitia Europa presents Luis María Pardo's candidacy for the general elections

Iustitia Europa, which exercises the popular accusation in the main causes of political corruption, will appear in the next general elections appealing to those who do not feel that any current political party, "regardless of its ideology", as announced this Sunday by its candidate for the presidency of the Government, Luis María Pardo.

Pardo himself intervenes as a lawyer, on behalf of Iustitia, in cases such as the investigation of Begoña Gómez, the very brother, the Koldo case or, the Plus Ultra case and, more recently, the case opened in the National Court due to the wave of immigrants in Ceuta. In this last procedure, he acts as representative of the unified popular accusation. He has also filed a complaint to investigate what happened to the penthouse linked to Isabel Díaz Ayuso.

The celebration of Pardo's candidacy took place in a hotel in Madrid, where he was unanimously supported by party members to head the list in the general elections. "We need a restart. Not changing one for another. Change the way we exercise power," said the candidate in his speech, according to Servimedia. With this idea, Pardo defended that the regeneration of the country does not happen through a simple alternation of acronyms in the Government, but rather through a profound transformation of the rules of the system and the way in which power is exercised, based on combating corruption and "non-partisan" institutions.

Iustitia Europa has operated for years as an extra-parliamentary party, financed by its members. The party defines itself as an "anti-party" and has used its structure to bring judicial matters to court.

The party has highlighted the opening of a case for what happened in Ceuta and the suspension of the electoral effects of the so-called grandchildren law. This last action was initiated by a complaint filed by the formation before the Central Electoral Board. "We use all legal instruments available to combat the corruption of power. That is the difference," said the candidate, underlining the action as a pillar of his campaign.

The formation highlighted that Pardo's candidacy arises from a project born from civil society, which renounces public subsidies and limits the mandates of its positions. Iustitia Europa proposes reforms such as the elimination of assessments and the direct election of the President of the Government.

This Sunday he also presented an "electoral contract" that includes specific commitments to citizens about the reforms he will defend. Among its measures, the independence of Justice and the elimination of public subsidies to parties, unions and employers stand out.
