The parliamentary spokesperson of the Popular Party, Cuca Gamarra, has visited the set of RTVE's 'La Noche en 24 horas' and, among other questions, Xabier Fortes has asked her about the controversy surrounding the mass in honor of Franco which was attended by the leader of his party Pablo Casado in Granada.

According to Gamarra, the controversy is serving to mislead people so that they don't talk about other issues "that are happening in this country."
