Rajoy confirmed that the elections are in December in Spain

USPA NEWS - The Spanish Prime Minister, Mariano Rajoy, confirmed Thursday that the legislative elections in December, but avoided specifying whether will be the 13th or 20th of the month. "There is another date out there," Rajoy said when asked if the legislative be held on 13 or 20 December.

In an interview on Spanish radio network COPE, the chief executive did confirm he will call elections for the last month of this year and will do so following the approval in Parliament of the state budget for 2016. With regard to the loss of votes that could suffer the Popular Party (PP), Rajoy said that "the PP is improving in the perception of citizens. Unless very sectarian, nobody can deny that we have had to govern in a very difficult situation. In three years the change that has occurred in Spain has been very great. Our policies have been useful and effective."

On the proposal of giving the Constitutional Court (TC its acronym in Spanish) of sanctioning capacity, which has been rejected by all opposition and the PP intends to adopt urgently even without the support of other parties, the Prime Minister said that "the decision we have taken has been critical in form but very little in the background, because what is intended is that the judgments of the TC are met, and who can resist that?
