Closer to IU PSOE
In any case, the new Socialist leader, Pedro Sanchez, also clear and has been blunt in saying that the PSOE will not agree with the “populism” includes, where can’t- “either before during or after.”
Therefore, alliances can be to the left of the PSOE, IU closer , although one of Can founders, Juan Carlos Wallet, members also insisted last in a so-called “mass wheels” organized through Internet week that “there is no assurance that go together add up votes.”
“It may be the opposite,” he added, because many people want to vote we as a possibility to change , without approaching other parties.
