| Isabel García: "The PP has always been more about helping their families and related companies and they will not change now" | This morning, the councilor of the municipal group MC Cartagena, Isabel García, defended the positioning of the Cartagena formation during the extraordinary plenary session in which the local government presented its proposals for the destination of the liquid treasury remnant. He began by alluding to the lack of modesty of bringing a proposal that leaves the current deputy mayor, Noelia Arroyo (PP) in a bad place, who not so long ago claimed "to the central government that the savings of the municipalities should be used to help families and Cartagena companies ".
At the same time, he pointed out that Arroyo's party has always been more about helping "their families and their leading companies." To establish his conclusion, García has warned that of the 3.5 million liquid treasury remaining, really "only 450,000 euros are used for social assistance, that is, 12.85%", thus dismantling the umpteenth lie of the local Executive . He then recalled that the Executive, for 2020, already cut the spending on social assistance expected in 2019, going from more than one and a half million euros to some "Pyrrhic 69,000 euros, which then had to compensate with the so-called Contingency Fund ". A burning nail, this Contingency Fund, which the Government has seized on to "alleviate its incompetence when it comes to making the provision of social services in its budget." Despite being warned by MC in some amendments that were ignored. To end her speech at this point, the Cartagena mayor has specified that, despite being a ridiculous amount, "we cannot oppose the allocation of 450,000 euros to help those who need it most at this time," however censoring that the Executive destines, trying to hide its lack of management, one and a half million euros, to rescue the transport company or Puerto de Culturas. He has ended up censuring, once again, that one euro is not contemplated for a true aid plan for SMEs.
"How many companies would avoid closing in Cartagena if their city council allocated 1.5 million to help them!", Exclaimed the mayor. The money of Cartagena, for similar companies and pay court sentences Regarding the second item on the agenda, the budgetary modification to meet different expenses, García has expressed the dissatisfaction of his training for using everyone's money to guarantee "that their head companies have guaranteed benefits and pay for their abuses, that they are the cost of sentences for having helped friends.
" More specifically, he regretted that part of the 20 million euros have not been used for investments that they had without spending as of September 30 to have undertaken a comprehensive reform of the Cartagonova municipal stadium, an issue to be added to the "sanitary structure of the stadium, a necessary security work that has been delayed for more than a year ". Avoid arbitrary spending by district councilors The Plenary has concluded with the debate on the modification of the 2020 budget for social assistance.
García has justified the vote in favor of his formation because "removing the money that district councilors can arbitrarily spend without participation or transparency to allocate it to social aid seems to us a wise decision." "It is a pity that in order to provide a budget for their district councilors they have had to miss the Participatory Budgets", Isabel García pointed out.
