Vox has deployed this Thursday for an incisive parliamentary control session.

The controlled party, yes, more than the government, has been the first opposition party.

Or, according to the extreme right, the new partner of the Executive of Pedro Sánchez, because it is there, together with "communists, coup leaders and filoetarras", where Vox now places the PP.

His spokesman, Iván Espinosa de los Monteros, has made it clear, taking advantage of a question to Vice President Carmen Calvo: "They have managed to have all the parties in the Chamber on their side, except one."

The open war on the right has been installed in the Congress of Deputies, with very thick accusations: from "miserable" or "unworthy" to "xenophobic".

Vox's failed motion of censure and Pablo Casado's break with Santiago Abascal still resonate through the halls of the Chamber.

The Government has taken the floor of the PP leader to demand moderation, so much so that Vice President Pablo Iglesias has read a paragraph from Casado's speech last week, the one in which he promised never to join a project of "fascist involution" .

While the PP seeks to reposition itself as an opposition, the confrontation on the right is now total.

Because the PP's no to Abascal's motion of censure has been something else, "it has been a no to the existence of Vox," according to the deputy of that party Macarena Olona.

The skirmishes had begun late Tuesday night, between the yawns of a parliamentary session that was dying with the half-empty chamber.

In a debate on the situation of immigrant minors, the youngest deputy from the extreme right, Rocío de Meer, starred in a tremendous speech, cheered by a huge ovation from her group.

The essence of De Meer's speech was cultural: there are neighborhoods in Spain that live under "multicultural terror", the government's immigration policy is a "cultural suicide" and in front of them Vox is the only one that defends the "Spanish cultural identity" .

The immediate reply did not come from the ranks of the Government, but from the PP.

Addressing the “extreme right of Vox”, the popular deputy José Ortiz reproached him: “His speech borders on or reaches xenophobia”.

The episode stuck with Olona, ​​who this Wednesday exploded: “Calling ourselves the extreme right… what little shame!

If it was you who were called fascists ”.

The cannon session against Casado had already opened with Espinosa de los Monteros, very solemn to note that he was speaking on behalf of the "only opposition party."

The PP has been "domesticated" and now roams through Congress "begging the Government for some kind of agreement."

"It is not that Vox has been left alone, it is that there is only Vox left," said its spokesperson.

Olona has taken over, who, like other members of her party, cried out against the manifesto that the PSOE, along with the entire left and the nationalists, signed last week to request a sanitary cordon from Vox.

In that document that Abascal's party calls "garbage pamphlet", "only one signature is missing", along with those of "filoetarras and coup plotters": "that of the popular", described by Olona as "the submissive, complacent, contemplative right and weighed down by corruption ”.

The deputy has even insinuated that the PSOE is delaying the launch of the investigation commission on the espionage of Luis Bárcenas so as not to bother the PP.

The last volley had a special charge because it came from Ignacio Gil-Lázaro, with his four-decade history in the popular ranks before making the leap to Vox.

The Valencian deputy has accused his previous party of being dazzled by the "hypocritical applause of the left" and thus perpetrating a "shameful and unworthy surrender."

Vox, on the other hand, will not succumb “neither to the bullying of the Government nor to the miserable insults of others”.

To finish off, Gil-Lázaro made a gesture with his hand pointing to the rest of the hemicycle to define it as "the corrupt voice of official Spain that you all represent."

The popular ones have endured the attacks with stoicism, caught between the angry slogans of Vox and the taunts of the Government who doubted the sincerity of their turn.

Iglesias has even been encouraged to mimic a saying: "Although the allies of Vox dress in silk, allies of Vox stay."
