Vox reproaches Feijóo for his absence from Congress: "He is playing Swedish and filling up on canapés"

MADRID, 21 Mar. (EUROPA PRESS) -

Vox has reproached this Tuesday the president of the Popular Party, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, for his absence from Congress during the debate on the motion of no confidence and has used his visit to the residence of the Swedish ambassador to accuse him of "playing Swedish and puffing up Canapes".

Feijóo held a meeting on Tuesday with the ambassadors in Spain of the EU member countries and the representative of the European Commission in our country. The meeting was held at the residence of the Swedish ambassador, Teppo Taurianen, whose country currently holds the rotating Presidency of the European Union.

This appointment with the ambassadors took place on the same day that Vox's motion of no confidence was held in Congress, which presents the economist and former leader of the Communist Party, Ramón Tamames, as a candidate for the Presidency.

Vox has criticized the absence of the PP leader from the chamber in the debate on the motion of no confidence and has asked on his official Twitter account: "What are Feijóo, Santiago Abascal and the Spanish doing at the moment?"

Thus, in the Vox account a photo of Feijóo appears with the ambassadors around a table, with the following caption: "Playing Swedish and filling up canapés", while another snapshot of Abascal appears next to him Tamames, who adds that meanwhile the leader of Vox is "making a motion against the worst government."

In the message appears a third photo of a worker in a construction site who is following Abascal's intervention in the debate on the motion of no confidence from his mobile phone. "Sánchez or elections," says Vox in the same comment.

Precisely in his speech before the Plenary Session of Congress, Abascal blamed the PP leader for his absence from the debate and, in fact, warned him that in order to "lead the opposition it would be good" to be present in the Lower House, given that In his opinion, "there are plenty of reasons" to put an end to the "suicidal" legislature of Pedro Sánchez.

It will be the general secretary of the PP and spokesperson for the Popular Group, Cuca Gamarra, who will appear on the rostrum of speakers in this motion of censure --predictably this Wednesday--. PP sources have accused PSOE and Vox of having turned the motion into a debate against Feijóo, who "each day strengthens his position as the alternative that the Spaniards need." According to the 'popular', these two parties "need each other in the face of the demographic strength of a Popular Party that wins votes to the right and left."
