Second Vice President Yolanda Díaz has accused the leader of the PP of having"hacked" the elections in Galicia by making "the living and the dead" vote and, in addition, has reproached the Popular Party for having been entrenched in the"ethics of coup d'état" since July 23.

These words have sparked a scandal in the PP party:"Accomplice, accomplice," they retorted. The response to the vice president's statements came from MP Ester Muñoz, who asked Díaz if she is not ashamed of belonging to a government that is rife with corruption and that, as her colleague Elías Bendodo had previously stated,"trades in prostitutes." According to Bendodo, Díaz is happy with the idea of"thief or no thief, we want Sánchez Castejón."

Muñoz has stated that Yolanda Díaz's "false dignity" is "laughable." "You are surrounded by corrupt people and pimps with whom you have made decisions. Are you really not ashamed of all this?" he asked.

"I don't steal, I'm a clean person; in our political space, there's no stealing," the second vice president stated before assuring that she will not break with her majority partner, the PSOE, and that she will continue to be part of the progressive government.

"You defend Sánchez to guarantee yourself a place on the Socialist lists" and you defend "that the pimps and the corrupt should be the ones who share the wealth they have stolen from the Spanish people," the Popular Party member retorted."You are part of a Government that is a corrupt network," she insisted.

The PP faction believes that Díaz's attitude is pure hypocrisy, expressing outrage over corruption cases only to cling to the seat of a government tainted by scandals. And then, all in unison, the deputies from the main opposition party once again chanted"accomplice, accomplice, accomplice."
