Biography

González graduated with a degree in European Business from the University of Portsmouth in the United Kingdom followed by a Master's in finance at the Complutense University of Madrid.[1] He was the founder of a management consultancy business called Management Productive Resources SL and ran a number of local companies including a taxi firm which he owned with Louis Alphonse de Bourbon. According to media reports, González was investigated for "accounting irregularities" during his business career.[2][3]

He was elected to the Congress of Deputies in the November 2019 Spanish general election for Vox representing the Salamanca constituency.[4] He also serves as Vox's spokesman on economic policy.[5]

González travelled to Bolivia in January 2020, shortly after the coup that overthrew the socialist president Evo Morales in order to show his support for the new regime.[6]
