Alberto Núñez Feijóo, in April About the Madrid Regional Government's Plan to Buy a Property to House President Isabel Díaz Ayuso's Offices

Party spokesman Borja Sémper also refused to demand further explanations from Ayuso's government, contradicting Feijóo's own call for answers. At a press conference on Monday following the party's Management Committee meeting, Sémper avoided saying who met with Feijóo in April and who gave him the information about the planned works at the Puerta del Sol building. "In April, President Feijóo knew that works were going to be carried out at the headquarters of the Government of the Community of Madrid, because in the context of an informal meeting that is what he was told.

'Look, we are going to do some works here. 'Oh, very well. That is the information Mr." Feijóo had, and since he hides nothing, unlike other political leaders, he told it as it was, Sémper said..es, that informal meeting took place on April 8, the same day as a public event organized by the ultraliberal Juan de Mariana Institute titled "You pay more, you receive less.

Attention has focused on García Martín, as he chairs the public company Planifica Madrid, which is responsible for the purchase of the penthouse intended to house Ayuso's office and her team during the works.

Feijóo had pointed to García Martín when demanding explanations for the purchase of a property that, in his view, "cannot be used as an office. On Monday, Sémper contradicted his leader, saying: "The responses of the Community of Madrid are reasonable and the ones they have wanted to give; I refer to them. Earlier that morning, Ayuso appeared before the media visibly annoyed at having to answer more questions about the penthouse. "It is for sale, chao pescao, she said, lamenting Feijóo's remarks: If they go asking one by one to each politician coming back from vacation, it is obvious that one by one there is a new headline, but it is going to be the same.
