Whatever happened in the Lower House, manners had always been tried to be preserved among the members of the Congress Bureau out of respect for the institution. Not even in the toughest meetings, in the previous legislature when Podemos occupied three chairs in the body of the Courts, had there been such tense moments as yesterday’s.
A few minutes earlier, the president of the Lower House, Francina Armengol, had appeared to defend the management of the community that she presided over until last year and to demand responsibility from the opposition so that it does not continue to cross “red lines”, in the face of the attack wear and tear to which she is being subjected due to the Koldo case. “In politics, not everything is worth it”, repeated Armengol.
Then came the high-tension meeting of the Congress Bureau. Hostility was the general tone of a meeting that was not like the one they usually have every week and in which some perceived a certain discomfort among the members of the PP because of the position that their party has adopted since it broke out the plot of the masks. The manners of the implacable popular spokesman Miguel Tellado, who yesterday once again referred to the president of Congress with harsh words and demanded her resignation, are not liked by everyone in the party. Surely the socialists are also disgusted by the brash X of the brash minister Óscar Puente, who shoots right and wrong.
Nevertheless, the PP, which since the Galician elections has smelled the weakness of the PSOE, increased following the scandal of the Koldo case, has begun a race to continue to penetrate the current fragility of the Socialist Party. He did not want to vote in favor of Congress investigating corruption in the sale of masks to all institutions, but he does not plan to give a break. Yesterday the official account of the PP published a controversial tweet: “Message for the corrupt socialists, it’s one in the morning, you can now go orderly to the brothels of trust”.
The PP has every right to demand the clearing of responsibilities, but it would be convenient if it demanded it without grotesque stilettos. Especially when, according to the CIS, political problems in general and the bad behavior of our representatives appear among the first concerns of citizens. Then they say that there is disaffection, but it is that there are other reasons. In the end, it ends up transcending the perception that politics is pure theatre, of the bad.
