Alvise's MEPs call him 'the most corrupt of the corrupt'

'He has lies in his DNA,' say Alvise's two MEPs

Two MEPs from Se Acabó La Fiesta (SALF) have broken their silence to portray their own leader, Luis 'Alvise' Pérez: they attribute lying as a genetic trait and label him the 'most corrupt of the corrupt.' The criticism does not come from a political adversary, but from those who shared a ticket with him in the European elections.

The portrait coincides with the management record attributed to him in Strasbourg. So far, the party's most visible milestones in the European Parliament are two: the vote in favor of implementing chat control and the absence on the day of the vote to take the Mercosur treaty to the courts. A meager record for someone who promised to shake the Government.

The founder's strategy, according to the most skeptical analyses, was always to promise until getting in. Once with the seat, the party would already be amortized and all that would remain was to harvest the legislature. What is surprising is that, despite everything, it retains voters ahead of the next elections. Some observers go further and define the project as an exercise in controlled dissent, more slapdash than other similar operations, but just as effective at channeling discontent without altering the board.

The disconcerting fact: the one who denounced the caste from outside has become just another MP who doesn't show up to vote when it matters. His own MEPs have already sentenced him. The voters, for now, are still not paying.
