The Minister of Transport and Sustainable Mobility, Óscar Puente, said he hoped that the MEP and leader of “The party is over” (SALF) Luis Alvise Pérez “I ended up in prison” that “this is where the criminals should be” after admitting that agreed to charge 100,000 euros in cash and without invoice businessman Álvaro Romillo as “private contributions” to “be able to save more” and not enrich yourself thanks to your political activity.
The minister remembered the phrase “you smell like prison” which Alvise has repeatedly used against political opponents on social networks and assured that “he smells like prison”. “Where do criminals deserve to be? In prison,” was the response in an interview on Cadena Ser.
In your opinion, it’s not the same collect 100,000 euros for an electoral campaign in exchange for legislating in favor of whoever gives you this money, rather than charging work for work. “One is an administrative irregularity, the other is a serious offense,” he ruled.
“I hope that he will reap what this character has sown. He has done a lot of damage to this country,” he added, insisting that “People like that don’t deserve to represent anyone.”“.
In a video posted on Telegram, Alvise pleaded “guilty” “self-employed worker who was paid in cash for work” and for having exercised, as he denounced, his “legitimate defense” against “state fiscal terrorism”. “There are millions of us tax-slave workers in this country and sometimes collecting the illegal activities of those who don’t charge is often the only way out,” he criticized.
The MEP, who described the Ministry of Finance as a “mafia”, confirmed having collected 100,000 euros from businessman Álvaro Romillo “without an invoice” and “to be able to have more savings” and not enrich himself with his political activity, as he promised during the electoral campaign for the European elections, he declared.
Puente, on the “Begoña Gómez case”: “This gives the impression that there is a prospective investigation”
On another note, the minister was questioned about the decision of the Madrid court to postpone his deliberation because he does not have the appeal in which Begoña Gómez requests that the procedure be archived, to which Puente responded by criticizing the resolution of the judge who, as he said, did not not seen in his “life”.
“It seems that in fact there is a prospective investigation which covers a specific period of time and all activities of a specific person. And honestly, it’s not that it’s prohibited in our criminal law, it’s that it doesn’t get a free pass,” he added.
At this point he emphasized that there is no court in Madrid that “he didn’t want to go a little further” to investigate the deaths that occurred in Madrid residences during the Covid-19 pandemic but that they are investigating “a lady in case the software (…) was appropriated”, in reference to Begoña Gómez, wife of the president of government
“We are witnessing an investigation which has neither head nor foot on facts that have no public significance in the face of a case of such seriousness that it has not been noted in any court in Madrid,” he stressed.
