Before excluding Ruiz Gallardon from the party's congressional lists, Rajoy and PP officials used two preemptive arguments to protect themselves from attacks on such an irrational decision. Firstly, they said that mayors cannot be included in lists under internal party rules. Secondly, that Ruiz Gallardon could not go on the lists because mayors that did go on the lists had to be on the very top. Those were Rajoy's arguments to protect himself from accusations that PP was going centrist just for electoral purposes and they would come back to extremism after March 9.
Well, it seems that internal party rules can have exceptions, specifically 11 exceptions. And not all of them go as top candidates in provincial lists. Up to six of them are not at the very top, more than those that actually do, five.
Anyone still believes PP is genuinely gone moderate or it is just a wolf on sheep clothing? Also how can we trust a man to be President who stabs his own allies in the back to appease the most reactionary members of his right-wing establishment?
