[edit] Ideology

There exist other political parties of similar ideology such as FE-La Falange, Fuerza Nueva, Arbil, Democracia Nacional and the more moderate national Catholic Partido Demócrata Español. España 2000 advocates conservatism centering around the defense of the traditional family, tighter control of Spanish borders to prevent illegal immigration, more investment in the police and military, priority for native Spaniards to gain access to jobs, and the immediate expulsion of illegal immigrants. They also endorse values set forth by the Vatican, although right-wing catholic parties tend to distance themselves from them, given the relationship their leader has with the prostitution bussiness.

The party defines itself as socially and democratically populist.

[edit] Leadership

Its leaders are José Luis Roberto (lawyer, and Secretary General of the National Association of Businessmen of Locales of Alterne (ANELA in Spanish)) and Salvador Gamborino.

[edit] Controversy in extreme right wing circles

The main political target of España 2000 is the far right wing spectrum of the population, with emphasis on anti-immigration and anti-separatist politics. However, other extreme right wing parties have been critical of España 2000 mainly because of the ties it's leader José Luis Roberto, has with prostitution business, and point out that he opposes illegal immigration but brings women from Eastern Europe to have them work in his brothels.

Alianza Nacional, a self described National Socialist party, while sharing many of the beliefs and target population of España 2000, has asked their supporters not to collaborate with this party, as they look down on the relationships it has with prostitution.

Spanish nazi skinheads usually joke about España 2000 calling them "Puteros 2000" (a "putero" in Spanish is someone who usually requires the services of prostitutes) or "ANELA 2000" (a reference to Jose Luis Roberto's relationship with the national association of Spanish pimps, ANELA).
