The Minister of President and Justice, Félix Bolaños, introduced a mystification to the Congress of Deputies when, precisely, he invited in his speech to “talk about lies and hoaxes.” In one of his responses during the government control session this Wednesday, the minister assured that Cayetana Alvarez de Toledo She was chief of staff of the secretary general of the People’s Party during the attacks of March 11, 2004. False: the current PP deputy assumed this position in 2006.
“We’re going to talk about lies and hoaxes, do you think or don’t like the subject?” The biggest hoax in Spanish historyand the most painful, which relates to the 11-M attack, where more than 200 people lost their lives, this hoax perpetrated within the Popular Party bears his name. Bolaños thus referred to the PP deputy before ensuring that at that time, she was chief of staff of the secretary general of the PP, in reference to the former Minister of the Interior Ángel Acebes.
The head of the Interior at the time attributed responsibility for the attacks to ETA, but Álvarez de Toledo was not his chief of staff at the ministry. Abeces, who left office in April 2004 after the elections, later assumed the role of general secretary of the PP, while Álvarez de Toledo she only became his chief of staff in 2006two years after the attacks.
“Lie!” or “that’s not true!”the PP deputy seemed to indicate from the bench before the words of Minister Bolaños, who continued by exclaiming: “You were in the engine room that invented the worst deception in the history of Spain. On Wikipedia, when talking about hoaxes, a photo of Cayetana Álvarez de Toledo should appear.
🚨 Once again, Minister Bolaños launches hoaxes at the seat of Parliament.
This is also the second time he has broadcast it.
Since he has a penchant for lying, his endless team of advisors could at least give him some new ideas. pic.twitter.com/5xdfkDi2rd
