Alegría vs. Santos: Heated Debate Erupts in Spain's Parliament Over Feminism

Spain's Parliament witnessed a heated exchange between government spokesperson Pilar Alegría (PSOE) and PP deputy Jaime de los Santos. The argument stemmed from Santos's remarks categorizing feminists as 'good' and 'bad.' Alegría defended the PSOE's record on women's rights, citing the legalization of abortion, same-sex marriage, and equal parental leave. "If abortion is legal, same-sex marriage is permitted, and parental leave is equal, it's thanks to the PSOE," Alegría stated. The video shows the intensity of the debate, underscoring the deep divisions within Spanish politics on feminist issues. Alegría's response highlights the PSOE's commitment to progressive social policies, while Santos's comments reflect a more conservative viewpoint. This exchange reflects the ongoing debate surrounding feminist issues and the role of political parties in shaping social policy in Spain.
