Good, arrogant and slimy and powerful. He had a lot of support, but I’m glad it wasn’t enough. I’m still shocked how long he was able to drag this all out.
Agreed on all counts … that said, his first “I’m not going to resign” speach got resounding applause, so I’m sure he had a lot of behind-the-scenes support to stay as long as he did.
Hopefully whoever gets his job will be both better and able to cut out more of the rot.
(I live in Spain, I’ve been royally pissed off at how the players have been treated)
Based on some of the footage showing the whole audience, he got less than half the people applauding… they just were the most influential, and cameras focused on them.
There is also the behind-the-scenes hint, that the day before, he was telling people he was going to resign, which seems to have turned out to be a ploy to get enough people into the meeting to have quorum.
Hopefully that means it won’t be that hard to make some overdue changes.
(…unless some-party-I-wont-name gets to form a government and decides that his is the right case for an amnesty /s)
(no, but seriously, how does VOX still defend this guy?)
Thanks for adding some context, I missed out on that!
As for Vox, they’ll keep defending him because they always look for the worst possible opinion to have and then jump on that … because unfortunately there’s enough people out there with the same shitty views who will then want to vote for them even harder.
I’m crossing all my fingers for a not-PP government.
I would have actually preferred to see him get fired and leave the office in furious humiliation. This is good too, though!
He’s also getting sued, this isn’t over yet. The guys who supported him, and those who still do, are also pending getting dealt with.
GOOD.
Hell yes!
Finally.
