Alberto Núñez Feijóo closed the Partido Popular’s 21st National Congress on Sunday by declaring he would seek to form a single-party government if he wins the next general election, telling delegates “there are only two options: Sánchez or me.” The PP leader ruled out any “cordon sanitaire” on Vox, but said coalitions are dysfunctional and promised instead to negotiate issue-by-issue support while vetoing only the pro-independence party Bildu. He also vowed to tighten controls on irregular migration within his first 100 days in office. Questions over whether that was a preference or a firm promise were settled on Monday when the party’s new secretary-general, Miguel Tellado, said Feijóo’s stance is a commitment: the PP will govern alone or call fresh elections rather than share cabinet seats with Vox. Tellado framed the pledge as a response to what he called the “government of collision” led by the PSOE-Sumar coalition, arguing Spain needs a unified executive. Vox reacted sharply. Party leader Santiago Abascal accused Feijóo of seeking an alliance with the Socialists and warned the PP was repeating the “gigantic error” that, in Vox’s view, cost the right a majority in 2023. Vox spokesman José Antonio Fúster said the PP was “dividing up ministries before winning votes,” while other party figures urged Feijóo to clarify his intentions toward the far-right group. The dispute flared as Vox spokesperson Rocío de Meer advocated the mass deportation of up to eight million immigrants and their children, underscoring the ideological gulf between the two parties on migration. Feijóo’s promise of a solo administration, and Vox’s hard-line rhetoric, set the stage for a contentious pre-election debate on how the Spanish right could govern if it secures a parliamentary majority.
