Parliamentary Clash: Opposition Politician Challenges Feijóo Over Judge's Book

Spain's Political Arena Heats Up: A Heated Exchange in Parliament Madrid, Spain – A recent session of the Spanish parliament witnessed a heated exchange between a female member of the opposition and Alberto Núñez Feijóo, leader of the Partido Popular (PP). The debate centered around a new book, "La Justicia Amenazada" ("Threatened Justice"), written by a highly respected judge. The opposition member questioned Feijóo about the book, prompting a sharp response from the PP leader. "Mr. Feijóo, today a significant book is published. Its author is a leading figure in the justice system. I assume you won't call him a 'fascist in a robe' or say he's joining the offensive against the government," the opposition member stated. Feijóo responded by highlighting the opposition member's past involvement in spreading misinformation. "I thank you for your question. And I'll also talk to you about a book, the one you presented last week with Mr. Iván Espinosa de los Monteros. I appreciate you showing us, with photos and actions, that the Popular Party and Vox are the same. I thank you that you, the extremists of the Popular Party, are so close to the extremists of Vox, as was demonstrated at last week's event." His remarks revealed a strategy of turning the focus onto the opposition member's reputation. The exchange underscores the deep divisions within Spanish politics and the ongoing debate surrounding judicial independence. The incident has sparked significant discussion and analysis across the country.
