"I find it very tacky and a sign of a lack of awareness that a PSOE councillor would be forging these passes so that more of his friends could watch the proclamation from there," she said. The events date back to October 10 and, according to municipal information provided by Councillor for the Presidency Ángel Lorén, at least three fake passes were allegedly detected when the councillor tried to access the balcony with three companions.
Chueca stressed that access restrictions are in place for safety reasons, since checks are carried out on the weight the structure can support and the number of people who can remain on it. In her view, the alleged forgery puts those accessing the balcony at risk. "He is putting people's safety at risk," she insisted.
PSOE'S CONDUCT CALLED INTO QUESTION
The mayor used the controversy to extend her criticism of the Socialists, asking: "Is there no decent person left in the PSOE?" She also described the conduct as "absolute irresponsibility" and presented it as an example of the behavior she attributes to those who support Pedro Sánchez.
For its part, the PSOE had already rejected the accusations and accused the municipal government of using Zaragoza City Hall as "a branch of the PP headquarters in Genoa Street." The Socialists described the PP's criticism as "lies, hatred and targeting" and called for political debate to be conducted respectfully, while pointing to other municipal issues on which, in their view, Chueca's team should provide explanations.
