    • 2021 May 5, Elsa García de Blas, “Casado da por muerto a Cs y proclama el regreso del PP: “Volvemos a ser el gran partido de España””, in El País[3]:
      Los barones, que después de las catalanas hicieron notar su malestar con la dirección nacional por la venta de la sede de Génova, se reconocen ahora satisfechos por el impulso que ha cogido de forma repentina el PP.
      (please add an English translation of this quotation)
      Casado assumes Cs as a dead party and proclaimes the comeback of the PP party: "We are again the greatest party in Spain" The barons that, after the Catalan elections did express their disapproval of the national management in relation with how they sold the Génova's Headquarters, they, now, are satisfied by the "all of a sudden" strength that has been gaining the PP.
