Government and Prime Minister Sánchez accused of inciting violence by Tellado, who claims the course of action will lead to the undoing of the government
In a series of escalating events, the General Secretary of the People's Party (PP), Miguel Tellado, has made a series of controversial remarks against the Government, igniting a firestorm of criticism from various political figures and organisations.
Tellado accused the Government of turning Navarre into a laboratory of experiments and of writing the first pages of moral and economic corruption during Pedro Sánchez's era. He also described the current Government as "dying, begging," and accused it of kneeling before fugitives from justice, convicted individuals, and radicals.
These remarks have not gone unnoticed, with the Socialist Party of Workers' (PSOE) Minister of Science, Innovation and Universities, Diana Morant, urging Feijoo, the leader of the PP, to reprove Tellado's words and make him rectify. Morant's sentiments were echoed by other PSOE ministers, including Pablo Bustinduy, the Minister of Social Rights, Consumption and Agenda 2030, and Ernest Urtasun, the Minister of Culture, who demanded Tellado's immediate resignation and apology for his lack of respect for victims and political stature.
Yolanda Díaz, the second vice president of the Government and Minister of Labor, also joined the chorus of condemnation, demanding Tellado's resignation on the social network Bluesky, calling his latest outburst intolerable. The PSOE has warned that the PP's surrender to the far right takes on dramatic tones for a party that once was a state party.
Emilio Silva, the president of the Association for the Recovery of Historical Memory (ARMH), has considered Tellado's comments as taking political action to a completely undignified place. Óscar López, Minister for the Digital Transformation and Public Administration, considered Tellado's statement a lack of respect for the victims of the dictatorship and a franchise of the far right.
Monica Garcia, the Minister of Health, has warned that the PP is going off the rails and is now only competing with Santiago Abascal (Vox) to see who lets out the most nauseating ultra-burp. The PSOE considers Tellado's words the best example of how both Feijoo and his 'number two' have brought "dirty politics" to Spain.
Tellado has replied to the Government's accusations, accusing it of manipulation but warning that "Francomodín is no longer giving more of itself." However, he has not announced a specific date for ending Pedro Sánchez's political career as Secretary-General of the PP.
Pilar Alegría, Government spokesperson, stated that the PP continues to cross red lines by insulting victims, disrespecting memory, and trampling on democracy. The PSOE has demanded that the leader of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijoo, immediately disavow Tellado for his latest outburst and demand an apology to all people in the country offended by his words.
Óscar Puente, Minister of Transport and Sustainable Mobility, reproached the PP for not having limits. The tensions between the two parties show no signs of abating, with the political landscape in Spain becoming increasingly polarised.
