Ada Colau targets Cayetana Álvarez de Toledo in election campaign

Ada Colau, the Frente Amplio candidate for the presidency and former mayor of Barcelona, has criticized Cayetana Álvarez de Toledo, the second candidate for the People's Party (PP) in Madrid. During a campaign event in Barcelona, Colau stated that if her coalition reaches government, she intends to significantly increase taxes on Álvarez de Toledo and her social circle.

This exchange follows recent comments by Álvarez de Toledo, who suggested that one of her first measures as a legislator would be to eliminate the simultaneous translation devices, often called 'pinganillos', used in the Congress of Deputies for Catalan, Basque, and Galician. Colau dismissed this priority as being out of touch with pressing issues such as rising living costs, housing access, and low pensions.
