PP and Vox take advantage of the controversies of 'Mediator' and 'Only yes is yes' to surround Sánchez in Congress on 8M

MADRID, 5 Mar. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The PP and Vox will focus on Women's Day their questions to Pedro Sánchez from the next plenary session of Congress, which coincides precisely with the anniversary this Wednesday, and will ask him for explanations for his policies of equality and protection of women, in full controversy for the reductions in sentences for the application of the 'Only yes is yes' law and for the connection with prostitution of those involved in the 'Mediator' plot.

Thus, in the control session to the Government of the plenary session, the PP spokesperson in the Lower House, Cuca Gamarra, will ask Sánchez if women really "are a priority" for the Government, according to the registered text.

Everything indicates that the "popular" leader could allude to the "Only yes is yes" Law, which has generated more than 70 releases and 700 reductions in sentences for sexual offenders since it came into force in October, and to the festivities of the The 'Mediator' plot, presumably headed by the former socialist deputy Juan Bernardo Fuentes, nicknamed 'Tito Berni', which allegedly included drugs and prostitution.

Along the same lines, the leader of Vox, Santiago Abascal, intends to question Sánchez about the measures that the Government is going to take to protect women.

Sánchez will also have to face one more question, that of the deputy expelled from UPN Sergio Sayas, who will ask him if he "believes that his Government is complying with what it promised to the Spanish people."

The Chief Executive will not be the only one who will have to respond to issues related to equality and women. The 'popular' deputy Belén Hoyo, who was the one who announced the first initiatives of the PP in the 'Mediator' case, will also ask the second vice president and Minister of Labor and Social Economy, Yolanda Díaz, that "how does your Ministry plan to celebrate 8M ".

Also the spokesperson for Citizens in Congress, Inés Arrimadas, will bring up these issues in plenary session next week, in her case with a question addressed to the head of the Equality portfolio, Irene Montero. "Do you consider that the government of which you are a part is a feminist government?" reads the text.
