In the middle of the meeting, many people were surprised to see Mr. Bustillo naked in his shower. The conference was also being broadcast live, on a local television station in Cantabri. This shocking sequence lasted for several minutes, which allowed his colleagues to figue out what was going on.
When the councillor realised his mistake, he immediately hid behind his bathroom door. Fortunately, no one saw his private parts, which were hidden by the shower curtain.
Many internet users then passed on this funny video. However, many of them do not agree with the councillor's behaviour. Here are some of the comments posted on Twitter:
'Our tax dollars hard at work,' 'Taking a shower during a meeting is disrespectful,' 'Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha,' 'Here's an example of a CLEAN politician.'
Faced with the magnitude of this situation, the councillor himself spoke out on social media:
I have spent half my life half-naked for my job as a swimming coach and I have never been embarrassed by nudity. I believe that this is not a criminal, unethical, or dishonorable act...
This might seem like a funny situation at first, but Bernardo Bustillo has had to resign as a result of this incident.
