Gonzalo Miró clashes with Mariló Montero and Susanna Griso over the amnesty: "Why does the right not comply with the Constitution?"

Pedro Sánchez's negotiation with the Catalan parties and the different agreements he has reached to ensure their support in the investiture has given rise to a lot of talk in recent weeks in our country. For many Spaniards, the amnesty is a tool that directly attacks citizen security and is a red line that should not be crossed under any circumstances.

In addition to generating a great discussion on social networks, different demonstrations have been held throughout the country to make popular discontent with the measure visible. This has made the amnesty one of the most talked about topics in television magazines.

One of the programs that has dealt with the topic the most is Espejo Público. Although it is a space that gives voice to all types of opinions, yesterday there was a very tense situation on the set. This episode featured Gonzalo Miró, a collaborator who has stated on more than one occasion that he does not view this measure with such bad eyes. The magazine aired an old video in which different socialist politicians spoke of the amnesty as something ''impossible'' or ''incorrect'', so, at the end, Susanna Griso wanted to know Miró's opinion.

In response, the communicator wanted to make it clear that no one can argue with the change in narrative: ''The problem that the PSOE is going to have in these four years in convincing its electorate is that this is not done out of conviction but out of necessity (... .) Whether or not he penalizes Pedro Sánchez we will see. There have also been a lot of things that were said to be penalized and they have not been penalized. He has had a million more votes than in the previous elections.' Given these words, the presenter returned to the fray and asked her if she was saying that Spaniards have "short" memories.

''No, it's not a question of memory, but things are not always penalized,'' the commentator responded while comparing Sánchez's performance with that of Díaz Ayuso, who for him did many things wrong and instead of losing the elections achieved an absolute majority.

After the exchange of ideas between Miró and Griso, Mariló Montero gave her opinion: ''The only option is the responsibility of the socialist deputies not to vote.'' It was then when the former Masterchef Celebrity contestant wanted to remember that we are facing an eight-party pact and that Sánchez has obtained a million more votes in the last elections.

''And all those he has lost?'' Montero replied before Miró exploded: ''Mariló, it's not opinion, it's data. Do not deny me the information, I do not deny you opinions. The problem is selling that you are doing it out of conviction when you are doing it out of necessity. But not everyone thinks that Pedro Sánchez is a dictator and that he is going to break up Spain, which seems to be a cry.'

Tired of her colleague's speech, the collaborator picked up the PP motto and explained that the PSOE had not won the elections, but had simply obtained the sum necessary to govern. ''Governing without winning elections is not new. In how many autonomous communities and city councils does someone govern who does not win the elections?'' Miró responded while Griso added that what is new ''is making an agreement in Brussels and creating a party table in Geneva with an international informer.''

The most tense moment of the program came when Mariló brought up ETA and Arnaldo Otegui, who were "partners of the Government" for her. Miró, exhausted by having to talk about this issue, replied that this was not true and that the PSOE has simply agreed with Bildu, a constitutional party: ''As much as you are concerned about the Constitution, why does the right not comply with the Constitution? ?''
