Breaking news of the political current events, live | The PP defends the AI videos of the campaign because they do not have a “spurious purpose”
Álvarez de Toledo y Sémper serán los números dos y tres de las listas de los populares por Madrid | El PSOE dice que participará en “todos los debates”, incluido el de vivienda | Acaba el plazo del Supremo para que se personen los afectados por la ‘ley de nietos’
As the final moments in political news unfold live, the People's Party (PP) has defended the AI-generated videos used in their campaign, dismissing concerns over their "spurious intent." The party's spokesperson, Borja Sémper, emphasized that these videos, which impersonate the identities of the president's wife, Begoña Gómez, and former Socialist leaders like José Luis Ábalos and José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, serve a legitimate purpose.
The PP has also announced that Cayetana Álvarez de Toledo and Sémper will serve as the second and third-ranking members of the PP in Madrid. The Socialist Party (PSOE) has responded, asserting that they will participate in all electoral debates, while criticizing the PP for deciding matters of timing and media channels. The controversy began when PP campaign chief Miguel Tellado sent a letter to the PSOE proposing a debate on housing between the party's vice-secretary for Finance, Juan Bravo, and Minister Isabel Rodríguez.
However, the Supreme Court recently granted a deadline for affected individuals to challenge the temporary injunction on the voting rights of nationals, citing the law of heirs.
