Today, December 4, has been a sultry day for the LGTBIQ + collective in the Region of Murcia.

At the same time, three proposals that directly affect the population of gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgenders of our region were discussed in the Regional Assembly and in the City Council of Cartagena.

The socialist deputy D. Antonio Espín, has presented a motion in which he requested the withdrawal of the Illegal Beginning Course Instructions that the Minister of Education Ms. Esperanza Moreno Reventós sent at the beginning of the course, in which she imposed the pin obligation parental for training in values ​​of equality and respect for diversity that our laws defend as mandatory, thus fulfilling their commitments with the extreme right to form government and approve budgets.

This motion has been rejected with the votes against the Popular Party and the abstention of Citizens.

It should be remembered that these instructions incur illegality, in violation of regional, state and international regulations, including educational laws and Law 8/2016 of Equality and against discrimination of the LGTBIQ + population, unanimously approved in the Regional Assembly, something of which The Minister of Education and the Vice President and Counselor for Women, Equality, LGTBI and Social Policy, Isabel Franco, have already been informed of which we have not yet received a response, and a complaint has been lodged with the State Ombudsman's Office .

On the other hand, in the plenary session of the Cartagena City Council, a VOX proposal to reaffirm the same irregularities has been rejected, thanks to the votes against United We, MC and the unassigned councilors, supported however by the PP and Citizens

And likewise, a motion submitted by United We-IU-Equo has been approved, asking the municipal government to urge the Ministry of Education to withdraw those illegal instructions, despite the votes against PP and of Citizens.

From the GALACTYCO Collective we show, first of all, gratitude to the political forces that have been involved in defending the value of our laws, laws that protect the dignity of LGTBIQ + people and the right to diversity.

Those that make our country a larger country, more evolved and more worthy of being called "free country".

And secondly, we show our most absolute rejection, indignation and shame towards those other political forces that are selling to the growth of the extreme right, represented in Spain and in our region by a party called VOX, of clear and forceful hate speech. LGTBIQphobes, sexists and xenophobes, who insist on curbing the social progress of respect, rights and freedoms.

We are aware that the Popular Party does not believe in Equality, as it has been demonstrating since it exists as such, and we are aware that it will never strive to make social policies that favor the most vulnerable, in this case, policies in favor of the LGTBIQ + population.

Against this we have been fighting since democracy is democracy in this country, and even before, against its ideological ascendants of Franco.

But today we denounce with great indignation the position of Citizens, who on the one hand has adorned his Ministry of Equality with the name LGTBI in full color, and on the other he sells to all the collective of gay, lesbians, bisexuals and trans to the ideology of extreme right , thereby causing education in the Region of Murcia to remain anchored to ultraconservative models defended by the Popular Party for 25 years in this autonomous community.

We disapprove the deception, so sparsely concealed, with which it intends to look good in the face of public opinion that applauds equity and equality values, launching hype and saucer, since this legislature began, the claim that it would launch law 8 / 2016 of Equality, while voting against it in our institutions.

We disapprove of this farce, so harmful and toxic, so unethical and in bad taste.

Such an unintelligent attitude, which has led them to the electoral collapse in the last general elections.

This commitment acquired with the extreme right by Citizens leads us to the LGTBIQ + collective to continue committed to the defense of an Education in Diversity, fundamental to end the LGTBIQfobia fed for decades in this Region, unique in all Spain at the time of having implanted the badly called Parental Pin in educational centers.

Unique in setbacks, unique in playing dirty to keep their seats in the Assembly and their positions in the regional government.

From our group we openly declare that it is a shame for this country to yield to the pressures of a party that in any part of Europe the rest of the political forces would face and curb with much more courage, dignity, intelligence, commitment to democracy and know .

We denounce that they are laundering their hate messages, thanks to which, they are giving wings to different LGTBIQfobas, macho and xenophobic aggressions that we were leaving behind.

We denounce that lack of political ethics that plays to be for and against the same thing at the same time, and we send a loud and clear message of rejection for such outrageous hypocrisy.

Finally, we require the current mayor of Cartagena, Ms. Ana Belén Castejón, formerly of the PSOE, to launch as soon as possible the motion today approved in the plenary session of this City Council, which forces the municipal government to urge the Ministry of Education of CARM to withdraw the illegal Start of Course Instructions with which its government partners, PP and Citizens (the friends of the extreme right), have stained the rights and freedoms of LGTBIQ + people, and likewise, to request the Legal Council of the Region of Murcia the report regarding the legality of these Instructions, as expressed in the motion approved.

All this, before delivering the municipal government to the enemies of this group, as she herself agreed in her investiture together with her municipal team, unfortunately.
