The second vice president and minister of Labour, Yolanda Díaz, reminds Alberto Núñez Feijóo that the minimum wage does not pay income tax. She accuses him of lying or not knowing what he is talking about.
According to live coverage from RTVE, the second vice president of the Government and minister of Labour, Yolanda Díaz, has reminded the leader of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, that the minimum interprofessional wage (SMI) does not pay income tax. The socialist leader accused the popular politician of being unaware of the subject.
“He lies or does not know what he is talking about”
Díaz's reaction responds to Feijóo's statements regarding the taxation of the minimum wage. In the same news segment, the minister of Inclusion, Elma Saiz, accused the PP of lacking a “national project” beyond “lies and misinformation” in reference to those words.
The debate occurs in the midst of the campaign for the elections on 29 November, as noted in the coverage itself. For the reader, the key point is the disagreement over whether the SMI is taxed under income tax, a fact that both parties have questioned.
