This morning, the deputy spokesman of MC Cartagena, Jesús Giménez, has assessed the achievements of the local government in the management of actions and obtaining financing for the recovery works of the Roman Amphitheater after the departure of the Executive of the Cartagenerist formation in 2017.
In line with this circumstance, the squalid contribution (300,000 euros) that the central government, through the Ministry of Development, will allocate for the recovery of the Amphitheater under 1.5% cultural, a contrasting contribution, returns to the forefront with the remarkable investment that will receive the archaeological site of San Esteban (7 million euros).
Paradoxically, the local Executive, in the words of his mayor, the Ana Belén Castejón transfuge, has welcomed the pyrrhic endowment, in one of his complacency to those who continue to delay the materialization of strategic projects for our municipality.
Jesús Giménez has begun his intervention meaning the fact that "the first investment that has been made in the Amphitheater since MC left the government is 20,000 euros, and they sell it to 'hype and saucer'. It really is an amount to not presume when, in addition , in 2018, 120,000 euros were lost to condition their surroundings. "
Then, he has shown that "the only good news is that this small advance demonstrates that the project promoted by José López by Carmen Berrocal can no longer boycott him."
The direction, in the hands of a psychologist, and the role of Arroyo
The cartagenerista leader has continued arguing that "it must be uncomfortable because they attribute the direction of the excavation to a psychologist assigned to the PSOE, and also runs the rumor that his next investment will be to hire an archaeologist related to the PP".
Giménez, later, has evaluated the behavior of the vice mayor, Noelia Arroyo (PP), in relation to the Amphitheater.
"Given the succession of headlines it is good to remember what they will not read, that Arroyo delayed two years the project he now presumes, after the regional PP killed the Amphitheater a decade ago and left duty until the scaffolding."
Two years 'selling' the same investment
As for the Mayor's Office, the councilor of MC has reported that "Castejón has been selling 300,000 euros for 1.5% cultural year, which we hope will end up arriving, while Murcia the same government has committed seven million euros to San Stephen".
"A new mistreatment that they will not denounce because the transfugas are from the PP and the San Esteban site is Arroyo's personal commitment despite his forced exile."
In the future, the mayor has indicated that "from MC we will not lower our guard and demand that the City Council budget in 2020 an important advance and that it demands from the central and regional governments a major investment, something that is pending since the Municipal plenary approved at the initiative of MC in 2018 ".
"Because they are condemning Cartagena to a sad groundhog day, in which we wake up with complacent headlines and no claim, while nothing progresses, except the budget suffocation of the Cartagena people," he concluded.
