The VOX party has called this Sunday for an end to the "Madrid of all accents" model promoted by the regional president, and has urged for tougher immigration policies, including the expulsion of foreigners who commit crimes.

The spokesperson for VOX in the Madrid Assembly, Isabel Pérez Moñino, voiced these criticisms during an event held in Puente de Vallecas. The leader described current immigration policies as "soft," attributing to them the "degradation, fear, and lack of coexistence" in the capital's neighborhoods.
These statements were linked to the recent murder of a 17-year-old minor in the area, an incident the spokesperson connected to the activities of Latin gangs. In this context, she advocated for the necessity of adapting legislation to the current "reality" of society.

"The criminal who commits a crime must be expelled to their country of origin."

Furthermore, Moñino called for the closure of what she described as a "sieve" at Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport. She warned that her party would demand the application of the principle of "national priority" in any future agreements with the Popular Party.
In conclusion, the spokesperson affirmed that VOX aims to "recover Madrid" and enhance security in the various neighborhoods and municipalities of the region.
