Rufián attacks Junts refusal Vows no more Junts deals

Oct 2

Gabriel Rufián supports the housing measures and attacks Junts's refusal, contrasting a banknote with keys to homes. He alleges that Junts's stance serves private real-estate interests and repays an unstated debt, while acknowledging conservative disagreement is legitimate and criticizing the PSOE for acting only after Maricarmen's eviction. He asks Junts to return to a conservative politics with which ERC could talk rather than emulate Orriols or Ayuso. He asks for restraint and says he does not wish harm on its members. At the end he promises to work for Junts's political ostracism and for his party never again to make agreements with it. The allegations remain his claims and the pledge does not establish a formal ERC resolution.

During the October 2 housing-decree debate, ERC spokesman Gabriel Rufián attacked Junts's refusal to support the package and pledged to work for its political ostracism and for his party never again to make agreements with it. His full intervention alleges that private property interests motivate Junts, displays a banknote and keys, and asks Junts to return to a conservative politics with which ERC could talk. He also calls for restraint and says he does not wish harm on its members. His pledge is a personal public political commitment, not evidence that ERC had formally adopted a binding no-deal policy or that alleged private interests were proven.
