Vox leaves its attendance at the PP event in Madrid up in the air but prepares a "great landing" on 8-O in Barcelona

Vox works in silence. Away from the noise, they say in Bambú, but with the calendar in hand. They know that the political future is going to be played largely in the streets, and that is why they assess how and in what concentrations against the amnesty to turn.. While waiting to learn more details about the “great event” announced by the Popular Party for Sunday, September 24, the protest that most convinces Vox is the one on October 8 in Barcelona organized by the Catalan Civil Society.

In fact, while Génova still does not confirm whether Alberto Núñez Feijóo will attend this demonstration – in which the participation of the Madrid president, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, is planned -, Vox is already preparing a “grand landing” of its leadership in Barcelona: Santiago Abascal and Ignacio Garriga, president and general secretary of the party, will lead a powerful delegation from the party, as confirmed by sources from the Vox apparatus.

The party already warned in recent days that it intended to be the political spearhead of demands in defense of the Constitution and compliance with the law, and in Bambú they define themselves as the only party that marks a real red line with nationalisms.. What's more, the PP's approach to Junts in recent days in an “informal” manner did not please the Vox management, which demanded explanations from the popular people about these contacts that have not yet arrived.

In the same way that no more information has emerged about what the PP's plan is for Sunday, September 24, just a couple of days before the investiture of Alberto Núñez Feijóo.. As this newspaper publishes today, the majority of the territorial leaders of the PP plan to be present in Madrid. But Vox, which has not received any communication in this regard despite being a partner of the popular parties in six regions, has not decided for now whether or not it will attend an event that Génova defines as open in order to have the company of other parties. and associations.

In any case, the call in Barcelona pleases Vox management more than the one at the end of September for different reasons.. Firstly, because the convener is a platform and not a party, which gives a more civic than political spirit to the mobilization.. Secondly for the location. Vox boasts of being the main right-wing party in Catalonia and the most voted among the “constitutionalists”, a group from which the PSC is excluded.

In the last general elections Vox, despite falling into important fiefdoms, maintained its level in Catalonia. In fact, it has two valuable deputies in Congress for Barcelona.. Furthermore, the hard core of Abascal – who today will go to Murcia to accompany José Ángel Antelo in his inauguration as regional vice president – in the political leadership of the party, Ignacio Garriga and Jorge Buxadé, come from Catalonia and know the situation in depth. of politics in this region.

Finally, the calendar of this demonstration practically coincides in date with the void left by Viva, the festival that Vox has celebrated with its militancy for several years the second week of October and that this year, given the political uncertainty of the coming months , decided to postpone to spring. From the party, in any case, the organization of another event that temporarily fit on similar dates was not ruled out.
