Beyond his commitment to a hard line, opposing the PP's transformation into "a demoscopic PSOE," his criticism of tutelage, and his call for nationalism to never again hold any "key" to Spanish politics, Fernández proposes constitutional reforms to guarantee party primaries and open lists that "reduce risks"; and also to clarify regional powers to guarantee the "unity of Spain." "Our Constitution was not designed to protect itself from cheats like Sánchez, Conde-Pumpido, and company," he concludes.
Alejandro Fernández declares war on Feijóo and demands autonomy for the People's Party (PP) in Catalonia.
The leader of the Catalan People's Party (PP) lashes out at Madrid's "tutelage" and denounces a "shredder" of Catalan leadership.


BarcelonaIn a political party, a war can be fought in several chapters, including truces and armistices. This is what happened with the battle between the leader of the Catalan People's Party (PP), Alejandro Fernández, and the national PP led by Alberto Núñez Feijóo, which has now resurfaced with a book by the Catalan leader that went on sale this Wednesday. In underwear off (La Esfera de los Libros, 2025). The message is clear: stand up to Feijóo, demand an end to Madrid's "tutelage," and denounce a "human shredder of Catalan leaders." He even asserts that his closest circle has suffered a dirty war and cites two allegations of sexual assault involving close leaders: the case of Albert Fernández Saltiveri and Daniel Serrano's.
"The development of this suicidal strategy for almost four decades is sweeping the party in Catalonia. It must be stopped, but right now, or the recovery of the recent electoral cycle will be a mirage," he says, referring to the "absolute dependence" of the Catalan PP on the state party. The swords have been drawn again after the appearance of peace pepera for the elections of 12-M forgetting the Fernández's declaration of war in the summer of 2023, with the warning also against "tutelage" and the outright rejection of any conversation with Junts, but also the dance of names that Madrid handled Before the Catalan elections, the government is trying to oust Alejandro Fernández.
"The national leadership imposes everything."
For Fernández, the problem with Madrid's tutelage within the party isn't just Feijóo's, but has worked this way in all of Madrid's Popular Party leaderships. "We are facing a structural problem that no one has ever wanted or been able to adequately address," he says, asserting that until now, the actions have been "tutelage and stumbling." His diagnosis is that whether the leader is of a disposition like Alejo Vidal-Quadras or himself, or leans toward the moderation of Josep Piqué, the outcome doesn't change because both Vidal-Quadras and Piqué were dismissed: "Hardliners and moderates end up experiencing the same problems and the same fate." In his opinion, the problem has always been that "regional leaders are appointed and removed by hand."
He laments the fact that "the national leadership imposes everything: candidacies, messages, projects." "If it goes well, it's thanks to his genius. If it goes badly, it's the fault of the person under his tutelage. He's replaced and it starts all over again." This dynamic demands that Feijóo change in order to build an alternative that completely excludes nationalism, commits to a tough ideological battle, and is clear that the Process has come to Spain to create an asymmetrical plurinational confederation, a project that must be "confronted" without limiting oneself to talking about "real problems." He also believes that "there are no more state pacts with the PSOE" given the current trend and demands that we stop holding out hope for an "alternative Juntos" because moderate Catalanism "is a lie" and proposes an all-out struggle.
Prologue by Cayetana Álvarez de Toledo
Fernández not only opens a new war with Núñez Feijóo, but also aligns himself with the most hardline wing of the state PP, represented by the PP's deputy spokesperson in Congress, Cayetana Álvarez de Toledo. She wrote the book's prologue and also sends this message to the leader of the state PP: "No one who aspires to the high honor and grave responsibility of presiding over the government of Spain can afford to ignore the teachings and recommendations of this book. Therefore, dear Alberto, read it carefully. It was written for you, from the beginning." After the book's stir among the PP ranks, Feijóo dodged the issue this Thursday: "I think it's great that everyone writes their own book, and besides, the title is very powerful."
Personal Experience
According to Alejandro Fernández, "submission to the postulates Genoese It irrevocably degrades the autonomous project precisely because it makes it unviable" and further attacks the dominant idea that "the essential thing is to be good stewards of Genoa, which is, ultimately, the one that will decide everything." This causes "the gradual and unstoppable degradation of the Catalan organization." s in Barcelona and Genoa to prepare for the imminent replacement." "I myself have been dancingbreakdancingon the wire since I was elected president of the PP of Catalonia in the primaries [...] And there I remain, in precarious balance."
However, he decides to reveal the alleged plot that Dani Serrano, his right-hand man, now advisor and former deputy, would have suffered - who remembers that he has not been reinstated from his positions. "mobbing" with "extreme cruelty" during the 2021 Catalan election campaign for "politically eliminating him" with a "false accusation." He speaks in the same way about former deputy secretary of communications Albert Fernández Saltiveri, who was close to him and who returned to politics this year as a district councilor in Sarrià-Sant Gervasi. He received the complaint from his partner, Irene Pardo, who chairs Nuevas Generaciones Catalunya. In the trial, she explained the ordeal and the attacks she suffered, although they ended in an acquittal. Alejandro Fernández asserts: "We have faced this type of practice against those of us who, in Catalonia, have refused to submit to certain power clans."
