Lleida

Spanish Socialist spokeswoman Montse Mínguez is facing accusations of hypocrisy after reports that her partner, Óscar López, owns around 30 rental flats in Lleida, some of them luxury properties. She approved an urban planning change in the city as a councillor that reportedly benefited him. The PP has called the situation hypocritical, given the party's housing policy stance, and Mínguez has publicly defended herself against the controversy.

Spain's opposition PP has branded the PSOE hypocritical after reports that the partner of the party's spokesperson owns rental flats in Lleida, Catalonia. The accusation, reported by El País, is being framed by conservatives as a contradiction of the Socialists' housing rhetoric, and the clash is fueling political sparring over housing policy and the left's consistency on landlords.
