Party leader Mariano Rajoy will rule on the fight within the different sections of the Partido Popular in Madrid on Tuesday, when a meeting of the party’s National Executive is planned. He admitted Thursday that the party is facing two problems, the Gürtel case and the crisis which has opened in Madrid following the declarations of Deputy Mayor, Manuel Cobo.

Rajoy said there has only been one Saint Job, and that if anyone in the party had done something wrong he cannot be a member of the Partido Popular. Rajoy said he did not accept corruption ‘in any form’.

The PP leader has also repeated that he considers the ex Aznar Minister, Rodrigo Rato, would make a good Chairman of the Caja Madrid savings bank, and he also made it clear that he had not been holding any negotiations with Esperanza Aguirre. She meanwhile commented on Thursday that all candidates for the post were ‘magnificent or colossal’.
