Moncloa corrects Escriva’s proposal to centralize taxes and attacks the PP for “giving one to the rich”.

Moncloa corrects the Minister of Social Security, Inclusion and Migration, José Luis Escriva, who in an interview on Onda Cero this Tuesday proposed the centralization of taxes to avoid competition between the autonomous communities, after the president of Andalusia, Juan Manuel Moreno, reopened the debate. By proposing the abolition of inheritance tax, which would affect the 0.2% of citizens in the community above €700,000. “The minister himself said it was a personal opinion,” spokeswoman Isabel Rodríguez said at a press conference of the Council of Ministers, where she used the opportunity to attack the PP for trying to take advantage of the “privileged”. “He’s going to stop collecting millions of euros to transfer this tax to the richest, to those who have the biggest assets, and that means less resources for the autonomous communities, and they’re not there to cover themselves, as I would say. [Alberto Núñez] Feijoo,” he expressed, citing the opposition leader as saying that Sanchez is holding back by increasing collections due to price hikes.

The government rejects, therefore, the re-sale of the taxes collected by the communities. What he has proposed is a fiscal harmonization that sets minimum tax rates to avoid unfair competition among the autonomies, which until now has been criticized by almost all of Madrid’s community presidents for the wealth tax bonus. However, little is known about this general proposal that Moncloa is making to reform the regional funding system, which has not made much progress, despite the PSOE’s commitment to renewing it in this legislature. “It is the government’s job to consider any progress on taxation, always in conjunction with the funding model.” Payments are made in conjunction with the funding model. We don’t have a small car to pay teachers, health equipment, dependency system… [ha explicado Rodríguez]. This car is called taxation.”

However, in Moncloa, they are convinced that the tax debate will benefit them because citizens’ “awareness” about taxes does not coincide with “individualism”. And also this prompts them in their speech to rule for the “majority” against the PP, which they put on the side of the elite. “When tax cuts happen, they sound great; But I ask the citizens: What do you think about the abolition of the wealth tax? Are you among those selected to make this tax-deductible gift? Most people watching us don’t. They are not here. This group of select few has a fortune of more than a million euros. “There would be very few people who would raise their hands and say ‘I’m here,'” Rodriguez said. “99% will say no, I’m not chosen because I don’t have much wealth.” Despite the fact that at the state level it was a figure eliminated by José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, in the current government they deny its discount at the regional level, and government sources resolve: “It is clear how the competition is done. throw away Fiscal”.

Moncloa reasserts himself against Feijoo: “It’s insolvency or bad faith”

Rodríguez defended the government’s management from those who “hype and clap” for the tax cuts in an initial intervention at the press conference, in which he also took the actions of the executive branch when they asked him about the criticism. The president of Castilla-La Mancha, Emiliano García-Paige, for the coalition allies and Moncloa’s strategy against Feijoo. “I like that the government is evaluated in terms of social profitability. I think we can take a positive view of it,” Rodriguez insisted, before insisting on the same phrase that Sanchez repeated in the Senate debate and that Page criticized: “I think it’s insolvency or bad faith, and I’m trying to think which is the first because the second is bad He has an arrangement.”

The spokesperson noted that the government is focused on what is urgent and what is important. “We are sorry that we did not feel accompanied by the main opposition party,” he argued in the same line that was recently used by the Socialist speaker in Congress, Patxi López, who was not even questioned by journalists, responding to the performances of his colleagues without unequivocally. He is cited, but with reference to Sanchez’s “dangerous friendship.” “The government is being punished for not governing, not taking responsibility and not responding to the citizens’ problems, which is what this government is doing,” Lopez said, before claiming they had agreed with Bildu on issues such as pension increases. or Minimum Living Income due to denial of PP.

In the PSOE, they do not hide their discomfort with Paige, who has dynamically expressed the image of unity that Sánchez and Barons organized just 48 hours ago, questioning the strategy of the Socialist leadership by saying that Feijo is “not insolvent”. In Moncloa, they are trying to sidestep the controversy, saying they will continue with the same strategy they claim has given them good results in the polls for weeks and managed to stop the “Feijiao effect”.
