## Political Offensive Intensifies

PP leader Alberto Núñez Feijóo and Secretary General Miguel Tellado have launched a coordinated campaign against Pedro Sánchez’s government. They characterize the current administration as a period defined by corruption, negligence, and mismanagement. The opposition aims to mobilize voters for the upcoming November 29 elections by promising a national reconstruction.

## Railway Safety Allegations

Feijóo has specifically targeted the government over railway safety, citing the recent accident in Urda, Toledo. He warned that if investigations confirm that funds intended for transport safety were diverted to the Socialist Party or individuals, those responsible must face prison sentences rather than merely resigning from their positions.

## Ministry of Horrors

Miguel Tellado labeled the Ministry of Transport, under former ministers José Luis Ábalos and Óscar Puente, as a museum of horrors. He alleged that the department became a hub for corruption, nepotism, and fraud, arguing that the systemic failures in infrastructure reflect the broader decay of the current executive branch’s governance.

## Economic and Social Hardship

The PP leadership argues that Spanish families are struggling to make ends meet, emphasizing that GDP growth does not translate into improved living conditions. Feijóo highlighted the plight of young people living at home and criticized the government for allegedly creating fear regarding the stability of the national pension system.

## Border and Security Concerns

Feijóo criticized the government’s handling of the border in Ceuta, claiming over 100,000 people crossed the frontier while Moroccan police facilitated the movement. He expressed disbelief that Sánchez congratulated the country involved, vowing to restore normalcy to that region and provide better support for state security forces and the military.

## Agricultural Policy Reforms

Addressing the rural sector in Castilla y León, Feijóo promised to eliminate all Spanish regulations that impose requirements on farmers beyond European standards. He characterized the current government as being indifferent to the needs of rural populations and pledged to seek a regulatory moratorium to support the agricultural industry.

## Institutional Decay Claims

Tellado argued that Spain is currently ungovernable, citing the lack of a state budget since 2022 and the absence of stable parliamentary majorities. He called for a return to the consensus-building spirit of the Spanish Transition, invoking the legacy of Adolfo Suárez to advocate for a more orderly political landscape.

## Electoral Strategy Outlook

As the November 29 election approaches, the PP is focused on consolidating its base and expanding its parliamentary presence, specifically targeting regions like Ávila. The party presents itself as the sole alternative to what they term sanchismo, promising to end years of political scandal and restore public service functionality.
