MÁS demands that the PP break with Vox in the Consell de Mallorca: "They have to remove them from the government."

The party believes that Toni Gili's statements "are not an anecdote or an outburst, but rather part of a planned strategy to criminalize Catalan."

PalmMÁS por Mallorca has demanded that the PP in the Consell de Mallorca break with Vox, after Vox's spokesperson in the island's institution, Toni Gili, this week compared the PP's support for subsidies aimed at defending and promoting Catalan with the spending of "public officials on whores and cocaine," considering that "a 'get out of the government' is not enough."

In a press release, Catalina Inés Perelló, the spokesperson for MÉS for Mallorca in the Consell, demanded this Saturday that the PP break its governing pact with the far right in the island institution.

For Perelló, the PP's condemnation via tweet is "totally insufficient," considering it "a purely cosmetic gesture." "It's not enough to make a post on social media to save face. What they must do is act accordingly: either condemn Vox's far-right drift or continue governing with them. Both things at the same time are not compatible," she stressed.

In this context, the party considers that the Vox spokesperson's words "are neither an anecdote nor a blunder." "They are part of a planned strategy to criminalize Catalan and degrade politics," they opined. Thus, Perelló insisted: "If the PP does not break with Vox, it becomes an accomplice to its crusade against language and democratic decency."

The party considered the statements of the Vox spokesperson in the Consell "absolutely shameful" and accused the PP of "looking the other way." "The pact with Vox delegitimizes the island government and turns the Consell into a loudspeaker for hatred and attacks on its own culture. The Consell cannot be a platform for spreading ignorance, contempt, and ideological fanaticism," the MÉS spokesperson told the island institution.
