- "The government coalition has betrayed the trust placed in them by their voters and has put their partisan interests before the general interests of Cartagena;
Cartagena does not deserve this nonsense but a stable Government, strong and with a project for the future, "said the local spokesman for Citizens
On the occasion of the breakdown of the government pact between PSOE and MC announced this afternoon by the mayor of Cartagena, Ana Belén Castejón, the spokesman of the Municipal Group of Citizens has said that "what happened today can not surprise anyone in Cartagena , we all knew that this moment was going to arrive, nobody was asking in the street if this Government was going to explode or not in a thousand pieces, but when it would do it;
what today is the chronicle of a dead woman announced, the failure of an ideological experiment that was perpetrated in May 2015. "
Manuel Padín has asked that no one forget that "today's disaster we have to thank not only MC and PSOE, but also the visionaries and distinguished politicians of CTSSP-Podemos that made it possible with their support in the investiture of 2015, the sponsors and intellectual co-authors of a political marriage in which nobody believed, the alchemists of an ideological experiment that is dragging the name of Cartagena and paralyzing the city and without a project for the future, through the mud of political intrigues;
all are to a greater or lesser degree guilty of this situation, "explained the spokesman for Citizens.
"I could not follow this nonsense, it is impossible for citizens to feel protected by these politicians, we have endured true atrocities in plenary, insults, disqualifications, can someone with two fingers of the front understand that a politician can act in this way?
it is impossible to govern without the affection, coherence and rectitude that citizens require and deserve, "said Manuel Padín, who today denounced a lie published by José López in his official Twitter account in which he claims that Ciudadanos voted against of a motion by MC to request a separate piece from the judge of Lugo for the situation of Hidrogea in Cartagena, "we did not vote against but we abstained, because we understand that political groups must collaborate with justice and provide all the documentation that estimate timely but not to tell the judges what they have to do, that is an irresponsible interference.
"The only thing that these three formations had in common (PSOE, MC and PODEMOS) was their objective to evict the Popular Party from the City Council at any price, but they have been unable to present a minimum government plan for Cartagena;
not only because of what happened today, but because of the multitude of misunderstandings and betrayals that have played a role since the beginning of the legislature that has resulted in delays in paying suppliers, the accumulation of invoices, delays in granting work licenses and activity , lose thousands of euros in aid to unemployed, lose millions of euros of European subsidies or the abandonment of our neighborhoods and councils, "recalled the Cs spokesman who believes that" today the Government of Cartagena has betrayed the Cartagena and have wasted and despised the trust placed in them by their voters. "
"Cartagena does not deserve this, the thousands of unemployed people from Cartagena who were waiting for their local government to work to rescue them, the self-employed who seek to improve their conditions, the big and small entrepreneurs who seek opportunities and a more agile administration, our farmers, our public workers, among many others, do not deserve this embarrassing and grotesque spectacle, this tactical and opportunistic strategy to position themselves electorally before the electoral year of 2019 arrives, if it is not for water, MC would have found another excuse ", he pointed out. Manuel Padín who has stated that "the Cartagena people wanted the politicians they placed in the Corporation with their votes to dedicate all their time and effort in executing a government action plan, designing policies to combat unemployment, generate jobs, that everyone's money is invested in profitable future projects, they wanted their lime
and clean squares, the logistical, educational and sanitary infrastructures that they needed, that would lower the price for which they pay for water, the protection of the natural and archaeological patrimony, strategies for the promotion of culture, Cartagena deserved a stable, strong and with a future project ... they are paid to do all that and not to generate concern, or to pass the legislature with soap operas like this one ".
Future precarious
"We are concerned about the immediate future of Cartagena, the rupture of the government has occurred before the draft of the municipal budgets of 2018 is presented and we do not know if the current ones will have to be extended indefinitely, besides, this year is key for us, is the year in which the Logistics Activities Zone will probably be born in Los Camachos thanks to the impulse of Cs in the Assembly, and perhaps the year in which the works begin for the arrival of the AVE, and in which we have to work to achieve the European millionaire subsidy Edusi for the center of Cartagena;
and the tremendous irresponsibility of the government coalition between PSOE and MC has put at risk the monitoring and development of all these projects "
According to Padin, "the situation in which the Government remains is very precarious, we do not believe that Cartagena can be governed well with only six socialist councilors, and we can hardly think that it is a government legitimized by a social majority because it only represents a little more than 17 percent of the electorate. "
For our part, we have to analyze everything that has happened, and above all wait to see what happens with the areas of government that were MC's competence to plan our position today in the City Council and our ability to do something positive for Cartagena, but I can assure that Ciudadanos will always watch over the interests of Cartagena over any other interest, and we will be a responsible political organization that will fight for stability, calm, and vocation for the public service required by a municipality like ours. "
"If we have been a factor of economic stability with the former mayor despite his insults, and his attacks, we will be less with the current mayor of Cartagena while still in the Government, we will continue along the same line adding and adding to find consensus for the good of citizenship, "concluded the orange spokesman.
MC voted in favor of the extension of 25 years to Hidrogea
The Cs spokesperson also thinks it appropriate to recall that MC voted in favor of the extension of the 25 years to Hidrogea, as reflected in the minutes of the famous ordinary plenary session on November 12, 2003 and in which it can be verified that , the councilman of MC, Luis Carlos García, after abstaining from the Finance Committee, changed his vote in the House and voted in favor of the extension, "this could be confirmed with the Secretary of the Plenary recently, so that part of the merit that Cartagena suffers an abusive and harmful extension for our interests, and the origin of the so-called water plot we owe in part to Movimiento Ciudadano. "
The red line of MC to request resignations in cases of corruption
On the accusations against the mayor of Cartagena, Ana Belén Castejón, the orange spokesman believes that "Mr. López has exceeded, I guess he will have proof of what he says and will take them to the courts, we prefer to wait for the court ruling to use those qualifiers, at a time when the red line is being debated at national level to demand responsibility, whether in the investigation ordered by a judge, in the declaration, or in the opening of the oral trial, today we finally know where there is the red line of MC: we must ask for the resignation when Mr. José López suspects that something bad is happening ".
"To Mr. Lopez we want to remind you that here, at the moment the only councilman of the City Council that is being judicially investigated for corruption offenses is him for the express purchase of the Peninsular Hotel," said Manuel Padín, who insisted that "if the Mr. López was in a political party that had an ethical code, he would have already abandoned his councilor's act to solve his problems with justice;
now not even denouncing what he has denounced has wanted to lose their salaries and abandon their positions and it has had to be the mayor of Cartagena who casts MC from the Government. "
