The PP policy tempest
In the Spanish political landscape, the Popular Party (PP) is at a crossroads that defines its future. Despite its history as a pillar of the political system, the leadership of Alberto Núñez Feijóo has failed to break the barriers of ambiguity, a situation that is becoming more unsustainable.
A promising start that was diverted
On his arrival at the PP headquarters in Genoa, Feijóo inherited the optimism that was breathed among his followers, hoping that President Pedro Sánchez was in a precarious situation. At that time, the predictions of sociologists such as Michavila spoke of a PP’s resounding victory with Vox as a partner, a scenario that seemed ideal for a moderate style leader.
The maneuver of Sánchez I Les repercussions per feijóo
However, Sánchez managed to rotate the tortilla with his decision to advance the election, taking advantage of the fear that Vox had generated. This play left Feijóo in a delicate position, with his party in the opposition and without a clear strategic plan, fighting a government that, despite its fragility, has proven to be more resilient than many predicted.
The internal voices and the future of the PP
Inside the PP, the atmosphere becomes more and more tense. The voices that call for a more defined position, such as those of Díaz Ayuso, are felt strongly. The ambiguity of Feijóo, who may have been well seen in Galicia, is now revealed as an obstacle to his political survival.
The PP Congress: A key moment
Thus, the PP Congress scheduled for July is an opportunity to redefine the party’s speech. Feijóo has to decide how to address the relationship with Vox, a party that has captured the essence of the new right globally. Vox is currently in a position of strength, especially among younger voters, and is a topic that cannot be ignored.
Controversial topics that need a clear posture
The PP faces various controversial issues such as immigration, euthanasia and abortion. Each of these issues requires a clear position from Feijóo, who also must make adjustments to the internal party regulations that define the primary process and the selection of leaders.
The vote dilemma: delegates or militancy
The question of whether to allow the direct vote of militancy or to continue with a system of delegates that could be easier to control is a dilemma that Feijóo will have to solve. These decisions are not only technical; They can determine the direction of the party in the coming years.
The shadow of Pedro Sánchez and the pressure of time
With Pedro Sánchez at the helm, which may surprise with more unexpected movements, the PP cannot afford another defeat. The lessons learned from 2023 are clear: the time of balance is limited, and current political uncertainty demands a quick and effective reaction.
Final reflections
The path that Feijóo chooses will not only define his leadership, but also the future of the PP as a political force in Spain. The decision between continuing with a moderate strategy or adopting a more aggressive approach will mark its trajectory and that of the party in the coming years.
