Óscar Puente, Spain’s Minister of Transport, never misses an opportunity to display his poor manners on social media.
Yesterday, he did it again in a crude message posted on his X (Twitter) account, in which he cited a notice from the Madrid Metro regarding the closure of the Sol station for the purpose of cleaning up all the waste (including urine and excrement) dumped into the Metro’s ventilation grates by far-left extremists illegally camped out in the square—an encampment tolerated by Pedro Sánchez’s government that is causing harm to citizens who cross the square daily, as well as to local business owners and Metro users.
To give you an idea, Metro de Madrid has posted these two photos of the cleanup work. You can view them in a larger size by clicking on each image. The second photo shows the waste that had accumulated at the site. I’d advise against viewing this photo in full size if you’ve just eaten.
In his post—without specifying who he was referring to—Óscar Puente provided an accurate portrait of himself: "A miserable, evil person. Screwing over public transport users solely and exclusively out of malice. Having a black heart."
Es una persona miserable y malvada. Jode a los usuarios del transporte público única y exclusivamente por maldad. Tiene las entrañas negras.

Seven months ago, Óscar Puente’s political responsibility for the Adamuz rail accident was confirmed—an incident that occurred on January 18 and resulted in the deaths of 46 people. During Puente’s tenure as minister, the Spanish rail network has seen its service quality steadily deteriorate, plagued by constant breakdowns and delays. Because of these issues—and the resulting loss of passenger confidence—many high-speed rail passengers are switching to air travel. It is a distressing situation, yet one that does not seem to concern the minister in charge of transport in Spain.
Óscar Puente is known for spending his days insulting anyone who says or does something he dislikes, using his Twitter account as a platform to spew hatred and rudeness. In that sense, one must give this Socialist activist credit: his message serves as a highly accurate reflection of his own character. He has managed to capture his own personality in a brief, easily understood statement.
It is always a good thing for a politician to make such gestures of self-criticism, even if it comes just a month and a half before an election in which the Left, according to almost every forecast, is set to suffer a major setback, and Óscar Puente is set to lose his job. I highly doubt that a résumé like his would secure him an honest position at a decent company. Fortunately for him, he will always have the PSOE to fall back on.
