> Jordi Turull rules out backing a new investiture for the Prime Minister as Junts per Catalunya calls for his resignation ahead of polls.

[Jordi Turull](<https://spainnews.co.uk/entity/jordi-turull-q17037054>), the secretary general of Junts, has ruled out supporting a new investiture for [Pedro Sánchez](<https://spainnews.co.uk/entity/pedro-sanchez-q6070218>) during an interview with TV3. Citing a failure to meet commitments made to [Junts per Catalunya](<https://spainnews.co.uk/entity/together-for-catalonia-2020-q97155800>), he confirmed the party will withdraw their backing.

The announcement follows a [Constitutional Court](<https://spainnews.co.uk/entity/constitutional-court-spain-q1566394>) ruling that corrected the Supreme Court's interpretation of the Amnesty Law. Meanwhile, Junts spokesperson [Miriam Nogueras](<https://spainnews.co.uk/entity/miriam-nogueras-q22337925>) has called for the Prime Minister to resign to facilitate a change in leadership.

With general elections set for 29 November, polls suggest a PP and Vox majority. While Ernest Urtasun claims the PP would not repeal the Amnesty Law, Nogueras insists Junts will not reach agreements with a right-wing coalition if they form a government.
