In the entire democratic history of Spain, it is difficult to find a more corrupt government, a more rotten organization. The first vice-president, Ignacio González. The adviser to the presidency and secretary general of the party, Francisco Granados. The vice-minister of the Presidency, Ignacio López Viejo. The treasurer, Beltrán Gutiérrez… The complete list is even longer and the latest to join is the second vice-president, Alfredo Prada, who was sentenced this week to seven years in prison.
All these names have two things in common. The first is that they are convicted or awaiting trial for very serious corruption cases. The second is that all of them were part of the maximum circle of trust of the former president of Madrid, Esperanza Aguirre.
