The Miguel Ángel Blanco park, in the Chamartín district, was chosen by the mayor of Madrid, José Luis Martínez-Almeida, and the former president of the Government, Mariano Rajoy, for a pre-campaign act by the councilor who, as a candidate for the PP, aspires to re-election on May 28.
The pre-campaign act with the New Generations of Madrid, where the long history of the PP with "more than 40 years of history" was praised, was held in the Miguel Ángel Blanco Gardens that pay tribute to the young Ermua councilor who was assassinated by ETA in 1997 and contain part of the history of this party. A statue next to some children's games pays homage to him.
Upon arrival at the event, Almeida and Rajoy found themselves surrounded by a boisterous school group before entering the venue, with children jumping and shouting in front of the familiar faces. The former president was the star of the "afternoon" on this terrace in Chamartín. First for the little ones. "The best president of Spain," one of them shouted between jumping and jumping. Then for the young supporters of the PP who were waiting for the politicians inside the premises, with a flamenco background.
There the leader of the New Generations of Madrid, Ignacio Dancausa, has taken the floor, who has not missed the opportunity to start the event by congratulating the 'ayusers' on the second anniversary of the victory of Isabel Díaz Ayuso in the Madrid regional elections.
Nor did Dancausa miss the opportunity, in that afternoon atmosphere, to rescue one of Rajoy's most remembered phrases, which he pronounced in the December 2015 elections. "It is the neighbor who chooses the mayor and it is the mayor who wants may the neighbors be the mayor", was the mythical tongue twister.
"For those of you who don't know, it is the neighbor who elects the mayor, and that is why we are here today, so that on May 28 the residents of Madrid are the ones who elect José Luis Martínez-Almeida again", Dancausa said. among the applause and laughter of those present, reports Efe.
Mariano Rajoy, who picked up the glove and made a joke with the famous tongue twister, assured that as a "neighbor" he will vote for the mayor of Madrid in the next elections on 28-M and asked the young militants to contribute their grain of sand to support Almeida in elections that are going to be decided by "very few votes".
"Madrid is in fashion and the mayor must have had something to do with it. Things should be reiterated," he said.
He gave the reasons why Almeida deserved the vote. He is a "brilliant", "intelligent", "competent" and "with a sense of humor" mayor, although his greatest "advantage" is that he is backed by the acronym of the PP, Rajoy said that he is not a simple "gang of friends" but a formation with "more than 40 years of history".
"His life does not last a quarter of an hour, far from it", not like "others who appeared" giving the "sensation that they had discovered the Mediterranean", nor like others who, perhaps in a few years, have "joined the list of those who have vanished", Rajoy intervened in a veiled reference to Ciudadanos and Vox.
Rajoy has reviewed some of the "consequences" of the Frankenstein Government of PSOE and Unidas Podemos, with special emphasis on the "transsexual law" or the "only yes is yes" law, one of the "greatest political nonsense" that has lighting Spain.
He has not forgotten Sumar, the political project of Yolanda Díaz, of which he has said that "presenting himself in the elections" with the name of "Communist Party" is not "very such" and for that reason "you have to present yourself as Sumar".
