Ager Solano and Pablo CasadoDenying everything and aiming at a personal initiative of a supporter has become the answer of the PP, when he’s appointed as responsible for a campaign of intoxication in social networks. In March, when eldiario.es revealed that a PP worker and a New Generation militant were behind a swarm of fake Twitter accounts to promote Pablo Casado, the PP denied it and said he cannot control the “supporters and militants who do what they want at home. “Months later, Twitter confirmed the information in a report in which he directly accused the party of being directly responsible for that intoxication of the online political debate.
