Isabel Díaz Ayuso brought these young people back to the plenary session of the Madrid Assembly, at the same time as the Inspector General’s Tribunal was unfolding, accused of filtering the e-mail from the couple’s lawyers. It’s the second and final week of juicing. In his intervention, Ayuso attacked the PSOE, describing it as an “authoritarian” party. “Ustedes is an authoritarian project that does not respect the separation of powers or the authority of the press,” said Ayuso, who told the Socialist spokesman that she would “never be a candidate in my life.” Previously, Mar Espinar, spokesman for the Socialist Workers Party, had a direct reference to the court, which Ayuso did not talk about. “The chief of staff and your counterpart must admit your lies in court,” Espinar said, referring to the statements as testimonies of Miguel Ángel Rodriguez and Alberto González Amador in the General Finance Court. “Ousted will have to do that too,” he told Ayuso.
The President of the Community of Madrid tried to focus on her governmental responsibilities while deciding whether the inspector, Álvaro García Ortiz, would filter the press message so that his junior lawyer could learn about tax crimes in the public farm, according to his surroundings. However, it has been impossible to strip away most of the media that the Supreme Court has celebrated in recent years, with the transcripts being rebroadcast across Spain.
Ayuso, against Fox’s ‘eviction effect’: ‘Someone is going to have to clean their house’
The plenary session began with a question from Isabel Pérez Monino, spokeswoman for the Vox party, who asked the president about the 25,000 homes he promised to build since 2019, when he took office, and, in the meantime, spoke about the supposed damage done to migrants in Madrid neighbourhoods. Ayuso responded by positioning the Immigration Center in opposition to Fox in this regard: “It would be bad if there was an expulsion effect, because, as I say, someone is going to have to clean their house, someone is going to have to gather their crops, someone is going to have to lay tiles in the houses that we are all going to live in, so what needs to be done is to encourage work-related, regulated, migration where law and order are met.”
The opposition recorded, in order, several questions on general issues, most notably the most important. The Madrid Board of Health has admitted an error in sending letters to 571 patients who were notified of false negative results related to colon cancer. Challenge Health ensures that there is no diagnostic error at the center and that “correct results” are always recorded in the clinical history of patients. Since the error was discovered, the administration has been contacting all these patients via phone, SMS or even through primary healthcare professionals. According to this information, the topic was covered in one week.
Now is the time to see what Ayuso argues in this regard. However, the focus will once again be on Ayuso’s duo, Alberto Gonzalez Amador. In the entire previous episode, the opposition addressed him in very harsh terms. Socialist spokesman Mar Espinar said he was “obsessed with financial fraud”, while Manuela Bergerot, from More Madrid, said he “did not run away” from open cases of these crimes. The president responded by pointing to cases of corruption that plagued the government, such as those of José Luis Albalos or Santos Cerdán, the latter among conservatives.
