The controversy between Pilar Lima, Podemos candidate for Valencia City Council, and El Hormiguero continues to be the focus of the news. A few days ago the presenter of the Antena 3 program and the collaborator Miguel Lago had some unfortunate statements about politics.
Motos asked the requirements that a good candidate had to have and Miguel Lago responded with some controversial words: ”Deaf. It’s that the one from Valencia says Irene Montero, ‘the best candidate, deaf, dyke…’ Then I say how anything goes, then she’s starting to miss. And here is this lame…”, he declared.
The purple party then decided to file a complaint against the program and both protagonists for an alleged hate crime and discrimination. Pilar Lima also wanted to give her opinion on social networks with an allegation against the words that had been pronounced in the entertainment space.
”A while ago a black person couldn’t even sit on a bus. Some time ago, it was unthinkable for a woman to hold any political responsibility. A while ago, LGBTI people did not have rights,” she confessed.
The controversy seemed to have remained in the past, but yesterday during the last program of El Hormiguero, the presenter and the collaborator spoke about the subject again. “It hurts me that the government of Spain denounces me with the Spanish that I am, but before this, I have extended my show to continue laughing at what I want and if they condemn us, Pablo Motos, I ask for the bottom bunk “, assured the comedian.
Politics has once again published a few words on her Twitter account against the recent statements by Pablo Motos and Miguel Lago in the Antena 3 space, in which she once again criticizes the comical tone with which they deal with the issue.
”Are you still weak-minded? Don’t worry, I’m going to teach you sign language, which opens your mind a lot to learn and also, that’s how I’ll update you on things of the 21st century, dear ones,” declared the Podemos policy.
