- "Mr. Espejo is only interested in perpetuating the bipartisanship with his exasperating competition with the PSOE to see which of the two delays the AVE to Cartagena, or is a worse public manager," laments Manuel Padín.
- Manuel Padín responds to Espejo: "The superior objective pursued by supporting the amendment of MC to remove 400,000 euros from our Fire Department was to destroy the municipal accounts and damage the PSOE at the expense of the public workers of Cartagena."
Cartagena, Monday, September 17 -.
On the occasion of the announcement made today by the spokesman of the Popular Party of Cartagena, Francisco Espejo, about his intention to promote an extraordinary plenary session with the aim of condemning the management of the PSOE Government in Cartagena, the local spokesman for Ciudadanos, Manuel Padín, has indicated that "it can be a fantastic opportunity to also reject the regional government of the PP for its systematic abuse to Cartagena in health, infrastructure, and investment for our projects of archaeological recovery, and to reproach the Cartagena PP for destroying, along with MC, the municipal accounts of 2018 making unviable amendments and removing the reserved items to pay our public workers. "
"It would be necessary to clarify to the PP that a Debate on the State of the Municipality is not only a Debate for an insubstantial disapproval from anyone, but something more complex and profound," explains Manuel Padín who asks Espejo not to attempt to boycott the debate. for his electoral purposes, we ask him to take his hands of the debate, if he wants to convene an extraordinary plenary useless to campaign against the PSOE and resuscitate the tired bipartisanship, to do it with its 10 councilors, the regulation allows it even without the modification made by Cs for the debate, but leave the Debate on the State of the Municipality in peace, because we want it to be an in-depth examination of self-criticism, a point of constructive inflection, where useful agreements can be reached for Cartagena to get rid of the abuse suffered by state and regional investments, recover lost infrastructures, and re-dignify the Cartagena policy and that it complies with the
that it is expected, among other things, effectiveness and optimization in the approval process of the municipal budgets, or in the relationship between City Hall and Neighborhood Councils ".
"It does not seem that the PP cares about that, but perpetuate its exasperating competition with the PSOE to see which of the two delays the AVE more, or is a worse public manager, with rancid accusations of which we are all fed up", complains Padín.
According to the orange spokesman, "if the PP really thinks what he has said what he should do is present a motion of censure and stop useless gestures that have no specific legal effect, so that citizens know that the PSOE alliance , MC, and Podemos has not worked and has paralyzed the municipality and has worsened its public services, there is no need for reprobation, we all know it since 2015. "
Regarding the response that the popular spokesman has offered to journalists' questions about why he voted in favor of the MC amendment that removed 400,000 euros from the Fire Department to pay for his overtime, Manuel Padín says he has given it " shame to see how Mr. Mirror did not know how to get out of this quagmire and said something like that pursued a higher objective, it is true, the ultimate goal of the PP was to destroy the accounts at the expense of the pocket of our firemen to politically damage the PSOE an authentic shame of trash policy insensitive to our public workers that certainly deserves reprobation, or several. "
"The reproaches, to be able to do them, you have to be in a position of moral authority, and neither the PP, nor MC, are available to give lessons to anyone," says Manuel Padín.
"Apparently, Mr. Espejo has not cared for a long time, to tell his president, Fernando López-Miras, because he seems to care about our support to get the regional budgets forward, or to push through laws and agreements positive in the Regional Assembly, "recalled Manuel Padin who understands that" not like Citizens take the colors and remind you of the amazing ridiculous they did during the processing of municipal accounts, which MC joined, to destroy and make unviable.
