- "Mrs. Castejón can not continue to insist on not seeing reality, that is, her absolute minority forces her to sit down and negotiate the budgets with the rest of the political formations, and that is what we want to do and that is why we support the creation of a negotiating table at the last ordinary plenary ", recalled the spokesman of Cs, Manuel Padín
- In reference to the mayor's continuous appeals to the opposition's responsibility, since the government must make the budget, "I do not know if you are aware, but you are censuring the position of your leader at the national level, Pedro Sánchez, who not only refuses to approve or abstain in national budgets, but also refuses to negotiate and has preferred to submit an amendment to the whole, "said Manuel Padin
In response to questions from journalists, the spokesman for Citizens in Cartagena, Manuel Padín, said today that he is attending the meeting convened by the mayor of Cartagena to deliver the draft accounts for 2018 with "the best of predispositions, but with an extraordinary déjĂ vu, with the strange sensation of being reliving a past episode ".
Manuel Padín said that "this is the second time that we are given the draft of the municipal budgets of Cartagena for 2018, which shows several things, that the first time was a useless pantomime that has made us waste time to all, and that the first draft was indeed so plagued with errors that it was difficult to work with him and impossible to amend. "
"Castejón can not continue to insist on not seeing reality, that is, its absolute minority forces it to sit down and negotiate budgets with the rest of political formations, and that is what we want to do and that is why we support the creation of a negotiation in the last ordinary plenary, "said Manuel Padin who recalls that at the last Board of Spokespersons," I gave Mrs. Castejón the opportunity to say that the last meeting was framed in the execution of the plenary agreement to negotiate the budgets , but he refused to do it ".
As for the possible amendments of Citizens, Manuel Padín, has assured that his Group "has prepared a battery of viable and necessary proposals for Cartagena, many of them, have to do with plenary agreement not executed in 2016 and 2017, but obviously not we can say today that they are the definitive, to be before the mayor has to present a final accounting document, with all its reports, with a real income forecast, without schedules imposed to measure, with the economic memory, without errors , with the budgets of the Autonomous Bodies and approved by the Government Board, that is, doing their job well ".
The spokesman of the orange training has warned that if mayor does not fulfill its obligation and obeys the will of the Plenary, that is, of the majority, "we will meet with the rest of the opposition parties to negotiate fair, balanced and party tints ".
"The accounts in a minority government must be negotiated without calendars and red lines, and we will do it, whether the PSOE wants it or not," Padín warned.
Finally, Manuel Padín has referred to the continuous appeals of Castejón to the responsibility of the opposition since it must be the Government who makes the budget, "I do not know if he is aware, but he is censoring the position of his leader at national level, Pedro Sanchez, who not only refuses to approve or abstain in national budgets, but refuses even to negotiate them and has preferred to present an amendment to the whole, that is, is making his own accounts, there is the famous socialist coherence of all the life, "he ironized.
