The popular view is that it is a “moral obligation” to act against an “unconstitutional and immoral” norm.
The Popular Party has filed its appeal of unconstitutionality against the Amnesty Law approved last May to forgive a decade of Catalan independence processes, as confirmed by the party.
The secretary general of the PP, Cuca Gamarra, indicated that the presentation of this appeal was “necessary” and a “moral obligation” of the Popular Party because it is now “the only state party that remains in the Spanish parliamentary arc.”
Gamarra assured that the Popular Party has always defended that the amnesty was “unconstitutional” and “immoral” because, as he said, his only premise was “to grant immunity to a political caste so that Sánchez would be president of the government of the Spanish government.”
The autonomous communities governed by the PP are also considering appealing the amnesty law and the deadline to do so expires on September 11. The rule was published in the Official State Gazette (BOE) on June 11 and they have three months to appeal.
The “popular” will also try to exclude from the deliberations three of the twelve magistrates of the Constitutional Court (TC): its president, Cándido Conde-Pumpido, and the two members from the government of Pedro Sánchez, the former minister Juan Carlos Campo and the former general director of Moncloa Laura Díez.
The PP released a message confirming the registration of its appeal to the TC minutes before King Felipe VI opens the 2024-2025 judicial year at 12:00 in the plenary hall of the Supreme Court (TS), the first with a renewed General Council of the Judiciary (CGPJ) after spending almost six years with an expired mandate due to the lack of agreement between the PP and the PSOE.
