Editorial: El País

• The Popular Party (PP) continues to show contradictions in its stance regarding the historical memory and the Franco dictatorship.
• The PP voted against the 'concord' bill, registered together with Vox, aiming to challenge the Democratic Memory Law.
• The regional historic memory regulations pushed by the right may slow down or halt the finding and opening of mass graves, and hinder plans to study about the repression.
• The PP shows inconsistencies in its stance towards historic memory depending on the region.
• The PP has performed various political acrobatics lacking a clear stance on historical memory, thereby welcoming the revisionism of Francoism.
• International legislation backs historical memory and warns about the dangers of 'concord laws'.

Conclusion: The PP's attitude towards the Democratic Memory Law shows a lack of internal coherence and some complicity with a historical revisionism that whitewashes the Franco dictatorship.
