The Minister of Equality of Spain speaks of “daughters” and generates controversy in Congress (VIDEO)

Irene Montero’s comments caused a wave of shouting and laughter within the Lower Chamber of the Cortes Generales of the Iberian country.

The Spanish Minister for Equality, Irene Montero, during her speech at the plenary session held this Thursday in the Congress of Deputies, spoke of “daughters”, which sparked controversy, as can be seen in a video released by Europa Press.

“This law also speaks of something very important, which is comprehensive sexual education, the need for our sons, daughters and daughters to have the right in all educational stages in a compulsory way…”, said Montero, causing a wave of shouts and laughter within the Lower Chamber of the Cortes Generales of the Iberian country.

At that moment, the president of the Congress, Meritxell Batet, asked those present for silence. “It is impressive how they are not capable of approaching, even with respect, the reality of people who are only asking to be able to exist and to be recognized without mockery, without discrimination,” added the minister, while several deputies applauded as a show of support for their words.

“If they don’t mess with me, ladies and gentlemen, what they do is mockingly approach people who suffer discrimination and misunderstanding and who have the right to have their institutions recognize their existence as well,” he continued, and the question arose again. controversy in the opposition caucus.

For this reason, Batet drew the attention of the deputy Tristana Moraleja, of the Popular Party, and a wave of discontent in the room became evident. “Whenever you want, uh, with your permission,” Montero added sarcastically, once again unleashing loud criticism from some congressmen.
