Every time Patxi López, socialist spokesperson in the Congress of Deputies, steps on 'Espejo Público' (Antena 3), the tension is already felt in the environment. And it is that, every time the PSOE politician visited Susanna Griso, both star in 'high voltage' interviews, characterized by the 'zascas' that both lead. Stinks well, this Wednesday the talk that the journalist and the interview have had was no different and the friction has been observed since the beginning of the talk.
'Espejo Público' I found myself in its first half hour of the program when Susanna Griso announced that Patxi López was on the matin's set to be interviewed in the 'A coffee with' section.
Susanna Griso went to her area where she met the socialist politician and knew that he was there to let her know where she had to come from. "Good morning, Mr. López, it seemed to me that you were stirring in your chair listening to the comments from the table," said the presenter of 'Espejo Público' to the guest. "No, not much," Patxi López replied from his seat. "No, not much? Haven't they surprised you?", the journalist questioned the thread of the debate that the gatherings had held minutes before about the 'Mediator' case
Patxi López responded that from the party they acted immediately after the facts were known. “In just 16 hours you expelled from the PSOE someone who with this behavior was not a socialist. We want to know all the information. We will act in the same way with any other deputy who has a similar behavior, that is, who has corrupted”, said the guest of 'Espejo Público'.
Patxi López gets angry in 'Espejo Público'
The interview progressed in the morning of Antena 3 and Susanna Griso was interested in the 'Mediator' case. "Do you know the numbers of the other 15 deputies?" She asked her, Patxi López had her reply that one "thing" was "going to dinner" and another was corrupt. "I know journalists who are shooting at everything that moves and many deputies are already putting fights against these journalists to defend their honor because they have not been to dinners or have assumed anything at all," said the politician before the Antena 3 cameras.
"Mr. López, wouldn't it be easier to give the list of the 15 deputies or for them to say that they had dinner and that's it?" Susanna Griso told López, who responded immediately. “To put a target of these corrupt ones on them when they have simply gone to dinner? Because that's how they are being thought of," said the socialist announcer, who was once again interrogated relentlessly by the 'Espejo Público' communicator.
"Are you aware that they only went to dinner?" Questioned the journalist, leaving a question that would ultimately leave Patxi López resoundingly angry. "Yes, in some cases, yes," confirmed the guest. "In some, with which I deduce that in others not", declared Susanna Griso as an interlocutor who immediately reacted with a great 'anger'.
“No, I have not said that in others no… don't get me wrong. Don't say what I haven't said. I have said that in some cases not because they are the cases with which we have spoken and with which we have evidence that they have been able to come to a dinner. Spot. Dinner. Period”, indicated the very upset Patxi López.
Susanna Griso: "It was not the most ethical thing to do"
Susanna Griso was not sung and continued with the interview. “She is not aware, with whom she has spoken, that she eventually had dinner with prostitutes and cocaine. I tell you this because in the end that is also scandalous. We were five days away from the seconds due to the pandemic, we used figures of 35.000 deaths in Spain and the Spanish at that time could not move beyond our provinces”, said the presenter of 'Espejo Público'. "It doesn't cost me", was the response of Patxi López who received the reply once again from the journalist. "A dinner in a booth in a restaurant like 'Ramesses' is also striking," said Susanna Griso. "But if the separation of the tables and the curfew are respected...", the political response that, as in a tennis match, received a new ball from the presenter. “I seem to remember that at that time there was a maximum of eight people for the rest of the mortals, they were fifteen”, pointed out Susanna Griso. "But you can eat at separate tables," counterattacked the socialist spokesman.
Then Susanna Griso paused briefly, took a breath, and closed the matter. “But it is unethical. We have criticized Boris Johnson's parties and you agree that at that time what he wore in Madrid was not the most ethical thing to do, "said the 'Espejo Público' presenter.
