Rajoy has proposed a 50% reduction to future Public Administration payrolls. The presidential candidate reported that the number of these workers has doubled in size during the PSOE's legislation. Some argue that our public sector employment figures are lower than other countries. Still, public payrolls have risen considerably and now they need to be trimmed until we can foot the bill.
Further, it is necessary that this is done successfully and rapidly. If he has been accused of not getting his feet wet in the past, Rajoy is up to his ears in it now. Little by little, the candidate has offered a more realistic vision for how to get to Moncloa. He does not want to endure the downfall that Cameron experienced before his election, nor the disappointment that Obama faced after his.
