Ayuso nombra a Gallardón, Aguirre y Cifuentes para un puesto consultivo por el que optan a cobrar decenas de miles de euros al año
Los expresidentes ingresarán una dieta de 750 euros cada vez que asistan a la Comisión Jurídica Asesora de Madrid, que se reunió 45 veces en 2025, año en el que habrían cobrado 33.750 euros de ir a todas las citas
Former Spanish presidents Alberto Ruiz-Gallardón, Esperanza Aguirre and Cristina Cifuentes, all from the People's Party (PP), are being considered for a consultative position by Madrid's Government under Isabel Díaz Ayuso. This role is expected to pay them tens of thousands of euros annually. Upon being chosen, each of them would receive 750 euros net for attending a meeting of the commission.
In 2025, the commission's plenary session held 45 times, meaning these former presidents would earn 33,750 euros annually if they attended every meeting, totaling over 100,000 euros together. Since Cifuentes disbanded the regional consultative council in 2015, they were previously unable to receive public funds. Ayuso incorporated this possibility in the 2025 statutes for former presidents, appointing these three individuals towards the end of July.
Consequently, if they are summoned to four plenums per month and attend, they would earn 3,000 euros net.
