People's Party (Spanish: Partido Popular; PP) was a Spanish liberal conservative political party, founded in 1976. The leaders of the PP were Pío Cabanillas Gallas and José María de Areilza.[1][2]

History

[edit]

The party was founded through the merge of 7 regional parties:

  • Extremaduran People's Party: led by Rodríguez Requera and Luis Ramallo García.
  • People's Party of Catalonia
  • Valencian Regional Autonomist People's Party: led by Emilio Attard Alonso, J. Aguirre de la Hoz and J. R. Pin Arboledas.
  • People's Party of Ourense: led by Eulogio Gómez Franqueira, E. Reverter, J. A. Trillo, J. Quiroga Suárez y J. Rodríguez Reza.
  • Aragonese People's Party: led by León J. Buil and César Escribano.
  • Alicantine Autonomous People's party: led by J. María Pérez Hikman, Antonio Espinosa and Ramón Sancho.
  • Balearic People's Party: led by R. Ciar Garau and Francisco Gari.

The majority of the members of the party were members of the reformist wing of the Francoist Regime, that wanted a "controlled" and moderate democratic transition.

The PP joined the Union of the Democratic Centre (UCD) in 1977, gaining 32 seats in the 1977 Spanish general election.[3] The party was dissolved in February 1978, fully joining the UCD.[4][5]
