Felipe and Rafa are the backbone of Spain

El rey de España, Felipe VI

Six hours before the commemoration of the National Day, the pandemic gave us the thirteenth Roland Garros by Nadal and the twentieth Grand Sland of his career. Rafa was entering history as a sportsman and as a free citizen. On 12-O, 528 years earlier, Spain had discovered a New World. Christopher Columbus, under the orders of the Catholic Kings of Castile and Aragon, arrived first on the island of Guanahani (he called it San Salvador, today the Bahamas) and then on Cuba and Hispaniola (today Santo Domingo). The Spanish changed the history of Europe and America. The feats of Nadal and the Discovery confirm that we are a great nation. 

The applause of the people to King Philip VI in the solemn acts of this event and the tears of the manacorí while he listened to the national anthem in his honor in the Philipe Chatrier court in Paris confirm the pride of being and feeling Spanish. Rafa is the true left of our country and the Spanish monarch is the neutral arbiter in this fratricidal contest unleashed by the enemies of the Magna Carta: the social-communist government and the nationalist separatisms. But only in 24 hours - from three o'clock on Sunday afternoon to three o'clock on Monday - did it become clear that Felipe and Rafa are the backbone of Spain.

Siege of Madrid

The sacking of Madrid-Community, orchestrated by the Government delegate and by Moncloa with Arrimadas-Aguado as traitors of the Bellido-Dolfos family from Zamora, was on Dr. Sánchez's agenda for weeks before he visited Puerta del Sol. Between flags, he only went to inspect the place where he could unload his revenge because the High Court of Justice in Madrid rejected his ministerial order - signed by the Secretary of State for Health and not by the infamous Minister Illa - by invading the powers of the higher-ranking Organic Law on Public Health and, moreover, because it restricted constitutional rights and freedoms. Illa and Simón used false data from four days ago to justify the outrage.  

The ultimatum to Diaz Ayuso with nightmares and malice aforethought - either you write down in a community regulation what was rejected by the Court or I will apply the sanitary law, that is to say the state of alarm - is the new disposition of these dictators of the new normality. In other words, they will be ruined either by prevarication or by the isolation of the capital and the ten largest towns in the Community. And they will kill you politically. Either you surrender and justice or retaliation will reach mile zero in the capital of the Kingdom. Sánchez and the agitator Iglesias are clear that Madrid, the King and Justice are preventing the change they dream of "through the back door". 

The Numantine resistance of Isabel Díaz Ayuso is a defence of the rule of law and the freedoms that this government wants to control. They already dominate the Congress and the Senate with their secessionist comrades. They are left with the CGPJ, the Supreme Court and the Constitutional Court. And the seizure of Madrid is necessary to impose enabling laws (Hitler, 1933) such as, for example, appointing the members of the High Judiciary by half of the Houses instead of what the law says: by three fifths. The paradox could be that the members of the Board of Directors of RTVE need 210 votes in favour to be elected but those of the Organs of Justice only 176. Note: these guys are capable of creating a single (provisional) Administrator like Rosa María Mateo, so that it lasts an eternity and charges the Public Television, imposing the TV3 model.  

Lastra and Echenique have already said in Parliament that the "coup d'état" against Justice is underway. The logical thing would be to comply with the law: to return to the letter and spirit of the Magna Carta: Art. 122, as required by the PP. Its spokesperson, Cuca Gamarra, has been clear: "This is typical of a dictatorship". Cayetana already said this months ago, remind Pablo Casado.

The state of emergency imposed on Madrid is demonstrated at the very moment when the Minister of the Interior, Grande-Marlaska, "occupies" the capital and the ten cities that are confined in order to prevent the people of Madrid from enjoying the 12-O holidays, three hours before the decree signed by Carmen Calvo was decreed. They have already achieved what they wanted: to put fear into the body and to ensure that Spain's international reputation, which is the exclusive competence of La Moncloa, is, as they say in my town, of the highest reputation. How much does this irresponsibility, this government defection, cost? Billions. Thirty per cent of the premises on Madrid's Gran Vía are closed or rented. Who is going to invest in this Madrid of our sins and our virtues? No one. 

This government is more lethal than the coronavirus itself.  The Minister of Health has gone to the SER to confirm that "it will not lift the state of emergency in Madrid until the pandemic is reduced to less than 100 infected per 100,000 inhabitants.

Just one more question to explain that the 'Sanchista' decision has not been sanitary but political: why has the harshness of this exceptional rule not been applied in Navarre, Aragon, the Basque Country or Catalonia? The answer is because their partners are there: Bildu, PNV and ERC-JxCat, and this government is being held hostage by the separatists.  These guys are tyrannosaurs, in the style of "el Che", Castro and Maduro. They will see how they do not have the guts to go to Congress to renew the state of alarm for another fortnight because the budgetary cost to their allies would multiply exponentially.

Diverting attention

Those of us who have researched political and electoral advertising know that the most immoral and effective thing to do is to appeal to feelings. Neutralize rationalism. This is equally valid for inciting consumption or compulsive voting. If, in addition, they take advantage of the occasion to divert attention from real problems, we will have achieved the goal: turning citizens into subjects. This is the direction taken by Minister Celaá's Education Act, which aims to award high school diplomas without any restrictions on absences. This is something we have never seen before. This is the socialism of the 21st century. Goodbye to excellence, effort and equal opportunities. When education is the key to all rights and obligations, 'Sanchismo' tries to destroy concerted education and manipulate public education so that Spanish is not taught, as is already the case in Catalonia, the Basque Country, Navarre, Valencia, the Balearic Islands and Galicia. And then they complain that the PISA reports are not rigorous.

This emotional sect created by Iván Redondo and his media trumpeters is clear that with the majority Frankenstein they can change the regime and take us back to the most disastrous period of our recent history: the Second Republic, which led us directly into the Civil War. When the Executive, Legislative and Judicial powers are united in the same person (Pedro Sánchez himself), there is no longer any freedom.  We have already seen how Vice President Pablo Iglesias harasses and threatens the Supreme Court if it dares to charge him with various crimes, including those of false denunciation and/or simulation, disclosure of secrets with aggravating gender and computer damage. Previously, the pack of computer experts paid by UP, as denounced by the lawyer José Manuel Calvente, has already threatened to kill Judge García Castellón and he has immediately denounced the Attorney General's Office and the CGPJ. Europe, thanks to Rosa Diez, already knows this too.  If this guy from the purple ponytail attacks, with the consent of Sánchez, the King and the Monarchy, it is not surprising that "the assault on Justice is imminent".

But all that we have said should not make us forget the main problem: the uprising in Catalonia, Navarre, the Basque Country and the Balearic Islands, where the independence fighters, in collaboration with Ferraz, Podemos, nationalists and terrorists where the law no longer prevails.  There the rule of law has given way. And in a few days we will see the Minister of Justice amnestying Junqueras and associates, including Puigdemont himself. It was painful for any democrat to see the picture in Perpignan of the coup leaders Torra, Más and the Waterloo escapist himself threatening the nation's government with a total breakdown after the forthcoming regional elections. Government response: none. Everything is for coexistence. A preventive surrender like that of Don Mariano.  All three have been in the Generalitat and in less than four years they are already generating life pensions, with an official car, office, secretary, assistants and escorts. Around one million euros a year. This is the consequence of the neglect of Rajoy and Soraya, who, with their absolute majority, from 2011 to 2018 did not modify the law so that these coup plotters could collect from the taxpayers of the "oppressive state".

I will not tire of demanding that the political and economic disqualification of these enemies of democracy and freedom (see point 2 of the Fourteenth Amendment to the US Constitution) be put into effect and not be laughed at by all of us. And now, moreover, the PSOE and Podemos, with their troop of national-separatists, including the PNV, want to reform the Regulations of the Houses so that deputies and senators do not abide by the Law of Laws, as has just been done in the Basque Parliament and has been in force in Catalonia for decades. These fools allude to the fact that loyalty to the Magna Carta is taken for granted by those elected by the people. If they do not swear or promise, why should they obey it?  

Never have so few done so much harm to so many. The most perverse thing of all is how to defend the law and the Parliamentary Monarchy is detrimental to coexistence, and to mercilessly attack the head of state from the Executive itself is freedom of expression. César Sánchez Castejón - our tin Catilina - supports his second vice-president and has also become the "protector" of Philip VI. That's a lie. Falsehood. The monarchical institution is in good health, despite the lack of exemplarity of the King Emeritus in recent years. I reiterate that today only Felipe VI and Rafa Nadal, deservedly decorated with the Grand Cross of the Order of Sporting Merit, can provide the backbone of our country.

Counting all the dead

Although now more than ever a State Pact is required to save the future as proposed by Emiliano García-Page, little can be done from the opposition with a stripped-down PP, with VOX clamouring in the desert without media loudspeakers and with Ciudadanos delivered to a trickster and dodgy president, who has disappointed many of his voters. If Doña Inés del alma mía trusts Sánchez, she will end up falling over herself when she sees that the Budget is being negotiated for prisoners between Otegi, Junqueras, the intermediary Iglesias and the happy-go-lucky Montero.

First, the urgent and necessary thing is to count the dead. We already know that from January to 7 March, the "CNI monclovita" alerted Pedro Sánchez and members of the Executive on up to seven occasions that the pandemic would bring many deaths.Therefore, do not continue to say that they did not know. The Sánchez-Illa-Simón trio lied, from day one until today. They did not let the pain of the broken families show, - now they chase those who put national flags on the beaches or in the parks so that we do not forget them - and they lied with the team of experts that never existed. A malicious and criminal attitude. This government has to admit its political responsibilities and resign as the ordinary people asked comrade Sanchez on the same day of the National Day. It will not do it because it is hostage of its arrogance, ineptitude and authoritarianism. They are taking us directly to Venezuela without passing through Cuba. I know that you will tell me that "this cannot happen here". They said the same thing in Havana and Caracas. If they want communism, let them pay for it.

My suggestion is that until the number of official deaths (50,000, 60,000...) is known, nothing should be negotiated with this immoral, sectarian, extremist and undocumented government. A government that has given wings to the separatist cancer. An Executive that allows the ETB to call the Guardia Civil a coup plotter, corrupt and repressive while the miserable ZP tries to whitewash ETA by trying to make us believe that the bloody past did not exist but only "different feelings". The president was right: "This government will not leave anyone in the gutter". Indeed; there are the ERTES unpaid since March, the dead uncounted, incinerated, the budgets not made, the milkmaid's accounts with expenses without income, the unbearable accumulated debt and the "miracles of the SMV" without funds to pay the most needy.

Sanchez boasts that he is in charge, but the "quadriga" of secessionist partners is out of control. And indeed, as the Castilian president says, "the debate is either constitutional agreement and stability or turning everything upside down". With this coalition government, dear Emiliano, democracy is in danger. And you know that Spain is more than Madrid, but the people of Madrid are not going to give in to a government without principles. The thousands of citizens who took to the streets of our cities this Monday, waving the red and white flag and proud to be Spanish, are not prepared to let a gang of unscrupulous cattle rustlers destroy democracy and freedom in our country. We will defend democracy and the 78 Constitution for another 528 years united! Long live the King! Long live Rafa! And long live Spain!
