'La Revuelta' has taken the lead in Monday, November 9th's audiences with David Broncano's interview with far-right leader Santiago Abascal. The La 1 program led its time slot and was the most-watched broadcast of the day. The visit of the Vox candidate was part of the program's round of interviews due to the general elections on 29-N.
The program registered a 33.6% screen share and gathered an average of 4,815,000 viewers. In total, more than 8.6 million people connected with the broadcast at some point.
The broadcast began with an explanation about the change in the audience. Broncano said that Abascal's team had asked to manage attendance and did so through an agency, after the reservations of those who had planned to attend the recording were canceled.
Broncano criticizes Vox for its absences in moments of silence
The presenter defended that laws against gender violence have given more women the necessary support to report. Abascal questioned their application and maintained that "that law must be reviewed." When Broncano reproached him for Vox's absence from moments of silence for the victims, the party leader replied: "What I usually do when a person dies is pray."
Abascal points to immigration for housing prices
Abascal attributed the increase in housing prices to the decisions of successive governments and linked the imbalance between supply and demand to immigration. Faced with Broncano's questions about investment funds, he directed his criticism at the Executive and proposed eliminating taxes associated with the purchase of a first home. On immigration, he defended the expulsion of people in irregular situations and foreigners who commit crimes, whether or not they have a residence permit.
Climate consensus and Gaza mark two other clashes
The Vox leader questioned the scientific conclusions about the causes of current warming. When he stated that "The climate changes from day to morning," Broncano replied: "What changes is the weather, not the climate."
The conversation became tense again when addressing Abascal's contacts with Israeli authorities. Broncano reproached him for not taking advantage of those conversations to denounce what the presenter called "genocide" in Gaza. Abascal, who defended Israel as an ally, criticized him for not having mentioned the Israeli victims and reproached him for not having condemned Hamas's crimes.
