The spokesperson for Vox in Congress, Pepa Rodríguez de Millán, has censured the attitude of the Junts representative, Miriam Nogueras, whom she accuses of "lack of education" and of wanting to "attract attention" for using the greeting to the Pope in the Chamber to take his hand and ask him in English to speak in Catalan during his next visit to Barcelona.
"Well, we find it a lack of education, a lack of knowing how to behave, a lack of everything, on the part of people who do not know where they stand and who have the permanent need to attract attention," Millán summarized at a press conference in Congress.
In that same appearance, the Vox leader has lashed out at Junts, considering that "the separatist-coup party Junts lives by extorting all Spaniards and by extracting as much as possible from the Government to keep them in power and continue turning Spaniards into a bargaining chip to continue financing their separatist business."
From her point of view, the pro-independence party should not even have attended the hemicycle to listen to the speech of Leo XIV. In her opinion, it would have been "better" for the Junts spokespersons to have "stayed at home" instead of attending, because "if they don't like it," at least the rest of those present would have felt "much better" in the Congress palace.
