The former president of the government considers that his decision to bring forward the primaries, then canceled by Ferraz, was supported by local groups.
The former president of the government This Monday, Felipe González conveyed his support to the general secretary of the Socialist Party of Castile and León, Luis Tudancain his attempt to move up the primary election and claimed his decision had the support expressed by the bases. “You are right. They should be done in due time, when the groups have decided,” in reference to the vote of the Autonomous Committee, which supported a calendar that would have allowed the primaries to take place before the Federal Congress.
During an event organized by El Norte de Castilla and Caja Rural de Zamora, González criticized the lack of internal debate within the Socialist Party and he recalled that when he was secretary general of the PSOE, the meetings of the federal commissions lasted “a day and a half and not an hour and a half like now, and that only those who criticized the executive could speak.”
In this sense, he recognized that he has never been secretary general of the PSOE with 90 percent of the votes, nor has he obtained a vote in the Federal Committee with this percentage, much less by acclamation. Furthermore, he indicated that although today it seems that there is no fracture Within the PSOE there have always been divisions, “even if we were then confronted with another way of doing politics”.reports Ical.
