The video that dismantles Alvise: from UPyD to MEP, the contradictions of the 'outsider'
An outgoing MEP has published a 57-minute video laying out the alleged lies of Alvise Pérez, the leader of Se Acabó La Fiesta (a Spanish anti-establishment party). The footage, circulating for eleven days, reviews the politician's career: from his beginnings in UPyD to his spells with Ciudadanos, Vox and the PP, before founding his own party. The question hanging in the air is whether Alvise is really a scourge of the system or just another actor in the same circus.
The accusations: personal data and missed votes
The video details how Alvise allegedly published personal data of two other MEPs from his party and stirred up his trinc against them. It also points to his absence from the European Parliament vote to denounce the Mercosur deal, a treaty he himself had harshly criticized. The coherence between his rhetoric and his actions is called into question.
The father's shadow and the constant turncoat act
Alvise's father said in an interview that his son "should be in jail", testimony that adds fuel to the fire. The MEP's profile, having belonged to four parties before creating his own, feeds the thesis that he is an unprincipled climber, willing to ally with anyone as long as it benefits him.
The trinc' reaction: controlled dissent or new hope
Some analysts argue that Alvise is the only one who has exposed the privileges of the political caste with hard data, and that the video is an attempt to discredit him because he is doing real damage. Others argue that his track record shows he is just another product of Spain's post-Franco regime (the so-called '78 regime), designed to absorb critics and neutralize them. The debate reflects weariness with the political class, but also the difficulty of telling the messiah from the charlatan.
The question left hanging is how long Alvise will last without burning everyone around him. For now, the comedy goes on.
