In recent years, several cases of corruption involving members of the PIL have been reported.
[3] The PIL has acceded, among others, to the mayor's office in the municipalities of Teguise (Dimas Martín, and José Dimas, son of the previous one) and Arrecife (Cándido Armas, after buying the vote of a councillor for 26 million pesetas), or the vice-presidency of the Cabildo of Lanzarote (Fabián Martín, son of the president of the PIL).
[4][5] In the municipal and regional elections of June 2007, he ran with the CCN, but was not represented in the Canarian Parliament, although he achieved a good representation in the Cabildo of Lanzarote, where he was the second political force after the PSOE.
It is precisely with this party that he has maintained government pacts in the Cabildo, as well as in some main town halls of Lanzarote, including Arrecife.
In the 2008 general elections, it ran with the Canary Islands Coalition, without achieving this electoral pact representation either in the Spanish Senate for the island of Lanzarote or in the Congress of Deputies, by district of the province of Las Palmas.
