United We Can deputy Peter Honrubiaparliamentarian in Congress for Granadasays he misses “a good guillotine in the history of the Spanish state” after Felipe VI’s gesture at the inauguration of Gustavo Petro as the new president of Colombia, when the monarch did not rise before the passage of the sword of Simn Bolvar.

In a message published through the social network Twitter, Honrubia calls Felipe VI a “facha” and praises the sword, considered an icon of the struggle of the Latin American people: “Alert, alert, alert that Bolvar’s sword walks through Latin America. And if Felipe is bothered by the façade, then let him be taken for a sack.”

The decision to show the sword was “sudden” and decided “at the last moment”, it was explained this Tuesday from the Government, which is why it was not part of the protocol. A justification that is not convincing in the purple rows, from where the “serious lack of respect” is criticized for the fact that Felipe VI remained seated as Bolvar’s weapon passed.

The “insult” of the king

The purples have launched an offensive against the Royal House in the last few hours due to the monarch’s attitude, which they consider “disrespectful” against Colombia, and against the socialist sector of the Government. Especially against the Foreign Minister, Jos Manuel Albares, who has been asked if the Executive “endorses” the “insult” of Felipe VI.

Moreover, the Minister of Social Rights and leader of Podemos, Ione Belarra, demanded that the Government of which she is a part officially apologize to the Colombian people. An extreme that the socialist side of the Executive has discarded this Tuesday when considering that the gesture responds to a “protocol” and not a political issue.

“What is missing is a good guillotine in the history of the Spanish state, joer”, wrote the parliamentarian of United We Can in relation to the controversy.
