Just one day after the regional and municipal elections on May 28, and in light of their results, Pedro Sánchez decided to call the next electoral elections several months in advance. The Spaniards have a new appointment with the polls on July 23, a date that has been highly commented because it coincides with the holidays of many people.
The reactions to the choice of that date to decide the next central government have been echoed even in the media. Àngels Barceló, presenter of the morning program Hoy por hoy on Cadena SER, saw her gesture when she heard the announcement of the elections live go completely viral. Given the barrage of messages, the journalist has explained the reason for her reaction to Sánchez’s statement.
Barceló has visited the Buenismo bien space, from the same chain, where he has analyzed the highly commented images together with his partner José Luis Sastre and the comedians Manuel Burque, Henar Ãlvarez and Quique Peinado, in charge of conducting the program. As her gestures reveal, the presenter’s conflict is not so much with the announcement of the elections, but with the chosen date.
“In July, from the 14th, I didn’t plan to be here,” Àngels explained, hinting that it had to do with his vacations. However, the real reason is much more personal: “It is the week that I go on vacation with my father, who is 90 years old, and that is the week of his life”, he began by exposing himself.
“That week I take my father to Menorca and it is the week of my vacation with my father,” explained Àngels Barceló, who assures that he will carry out the electoral coverage from the island. “I will work a little from Menorca, but no, I will not delay it because I already have the tickets and my father is super excited,” he said in the Buenismo bien microphones.
Regarding the enormous repercussion of his gesture, Àngels has been ironic. “I thought about this this morning and I thought: ‘fuck, with the trajectory that I have, and stay for this …'”, he assured, comparing his moment with the one also commented “how are the machines?” of David Bisbal: “Well, I hadn’t fallen for that, but I, come on, now I’m Bisbal, eh”, he responded to the words of Quique Peinado.
