The main points of the party platform were:

  • Defence of the unity of Spain. Rejection of the Autonomous Regions.
  • Respecting the "religious principles".
  • Monarquism.
  • Defense of social order. Opposition to class struggle.
  • "Agrarian nationalism" and promoting cooperation and agricultural credit.
  • Equitable taxation.
  • Free elementary education and letting popular classes access to middle and upper education.
  • Nationalization of health services and social assistance.
  • International action to prevent the discrediting of Spain.
