The Madrid president demands that the Government Delegation clarify whether there are individuals with terrorist backgrounds in the housing protest. She links the camp to pro-Palestinian groups included on lists from the US and Canada.
The president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, has asked the Government Delegation in Madrid to clarify whether among the participants in the camp at Puerta del Sol there is a group with terrorist backgrounds linked to the pro-Palestinian movement. She made this statement during a pre-campaign event held this Saturday at Ifema, alongside the national president of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, and the mayor of Madrid, José Luis Martínez-Almeida, as reported by elplural.com.
Ayuso has claimed that the United States and Canada have included individuals or groups she associates with the protest on their lists of terrorist organizations. She has not provided evidence to support this connection. Regarding the campers, she sarcastically remarked: "We have the best of every household there."
The popular leader has reiterated her suspicions about postal voting ahead of the elections on 29 November. She stated that the Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, intends to alter electoral rules through "all the tricks he can." She recalled the general elections of 2023 and maintained that there were voters who did not receive their electoral documentation or received it late.

She has also linked the policy of regularising migrants and the grandchild law with a supposed intention of the Executive to "inflate the census," without providing evidence. She contrasted her model of coexistence with that of the left, which she accused of wanting to impose "the peace of the cemeteries." She rejected the escraches and boycotts of major events, mentioning the protests that affected La Vuelta last year.
We are not the ones of violence
Ayuso described Madrid as a city "overflowing, full of joy, concerts, theatres, shows, investments, and opportunities." She asserted that her party will defend "harmony" and "plurality," but without "submitting to anyone," and stated that Spaniards do not allow themselves to be subjected "to pressures, threats, or the street violence of four cowards." The president responded to warnings from Más Madrid about the possibility of unrest in the capital's streets.
These statements come just weeks before the elections on 29 November, where Ayuso again places postal voting at the centre of her criticisms of Sánchez's government.
