The Spanish Royal House has no competences attributed in this. All the powers are of the Central Government, which has looked the other way and has refused to send all the resources and instruments of the State necessary to alleviate this catastrophe. The boos and insults were not for the King, they were for President Pedro Sánchez, who fled from this situation. This for those who really want to know the real situation we live in Spain at the moment.

The Valencian people are against the president of Spain, Pedro Sánchez, not against the king.
What has happened is that the king was with the president when the people have insulted and thrown mud at the president, also reaching the king, but they are not against the king but against President Sánchez.

It's not the King's fault that there were floods.

The fact kings and queens still exist in 2024 is a clear demonstration of how humanity, at its core, is still archaic

[jimmyjohns]

Every comment on here is wierd in its own way. We cant afford basic necessities and rent anymore without more work then our parents had. Im pretty sure most of society is done with royalty. This flood is probably the last straw for most there and to see rich people come take pity on you is infuriating. Id ve mad too

[Rastebb]

I dont even think its honest to say "it did little to damper their anger and frustration". If anything it made them more angry and frustrated

[dougsinthailand]

You want absolute power but you can’t take care of your people!

[lestervaldesnunez]

And that’s the way it should be. Enough with that BS of kings and queens

[jeanneganrude]

Um, how were they supposed to stop these unnatural floods?

[cbwavy]

It's easier to yell at people than doing actual work

[NickySphinx]

Not alarms, not help, not any reaction for suffering people 😬

[reginanwahiri]

Was the flood caused by the King. The crowd misplaced thair anger.

[danielsolorzano]

What took place in Spain was very devastating.
And the people have the right to be angry.
But at the same token, we here in the united state was faced with a different devastating called the COVID pandemic where we had lost over a half million American citizens
And the so called president at that time did nothing to protect or to provide proper medical machines who gave some to Putin in Russia.

The royals should've stayed home and just made videos asking the world for donations and other help for the Valencia region instead of just clogging traffic.

What the f. How does the King have to do with weather. I can't believe Spaniards had no class . Unbelievable. What did they do about it. Besides walk around like caring citizens.

[Sigmatronproductions]

It is crazy how bad spain is falling apart. I feel like i'm learning about a new spanish country that wants independence by the day.

[jenofoto]

Flood has nothing to do with their King.
Why do they call him murderer ?
I can understand why
Latin America is so chaotic and unstable.😢😮😢

[joelvanwinkle]

No warnings, no aid, nothing for the suffering people

[ladyarthuria]

He's looking older than his age after being a King. Be a King is stressful 😬

[kolbybeautymakeupartist]

The people should be ashamed themselves.
