The spokesman for centre-right Ciudadanos in the regional government of Valencia was seen leaping into the sea off Les Platgetes beach in Oropesa de Mar (Castellón province) 'without thinking twice about it' after seeing three girls, who appear to be in their late teens, in serious difficulty.
All three were struggling against a current and rapidly losing the battle, constantly dipping under water and being thrown against the rocks beyond the pier, and the general consensus is that without Cantó's bravery and presence of mind, they would have all drowned within minutes.
Other members of the party at regional and national level have championed the MP's actions publicly via social media.
Spokesman for Ciudadanos in the northern region of Cantabria, Félix Álvarez, wrote: “How great you are!”
And his colleague Sonia Reina, who uploaded photographs of the one-man rescue operation and of Cantó standing on the shore with the girls – whose faces are pixelled out – wrote: “There are some people who, faced with a dangerous situation, don't think twice, but throw themselves in at the deep end to save lives. And that's what this amazing Ciudadanos politician did this weekend.”
She added an emoji of a person swimming, and another of clapping hands, next to which she wrote: “Bravery and humanity is what defines Toni Cantó.”
