This morning, during the reading of the agenda of the ordinary plenary session, the deputy speaker of the MC Cartagena municipal group, Isabel García, has moved the positioning of her training in relation to the modification of the General Budget of 2018, extended from 2017.
García has argued the 'no' of MC, reminding the socialist spokesperson, Obdulia Gómez, his audacity to comment on something he does not know.
The mayor recalled that the refusal of Cartagena adheres to the proposal presented by the Socialists, not the fact of reinvesting the surplus.
Clarified this point, he added that "we are aware of the game of 'trileros' in which the PSOE has turned the City Council In addition, in the Finance Committee, their councilors were not able to explain what actions are going to be undertaken and in what neighborhoods that money".
Isabel Garcia has explained the incongruity of the Socialist Mayor's office able to approve, in the Government Board, a draft budget last Friday, which includes a batch of 2 million for the works of the Participative Budgets of 2018 for, two days then, want to use the treasury remnant to finance them, while "pouring another 500,000 euros without specifying their intention".
At this point, the reasons for not including in this heading the construction of the artificial turf soccer field of La Palma, as well as the arrangement of the pool cover of La Aljorra, projects completed by MC but that they have not been funded by the PSOE.
Going into what was presented by the councilor of Finance, the socialist Carmen Martin, the mayor of MC has acknowledged that "it may not explain where the investments go because it is unknown, as it is an open secret that the budget has been made in the offices of socialists in Cartagena, and not in those of its Council. "
In fact, Martín herself did not offer a press conference to that effect.
The councilor pointed out that "we can not value what we do not know, otherwise it would be an act of faith, and faith in the government of the PSOE we have little, we have already verified that the PSOE of Cartagena does not comply with what was agreed and signed. in the air, if we give them a blank check that is what they would like ".
Immediately, Isabel Garcia has warned that "we do not put sticks in the wheels, just like we do not give blank checks, precisely, if MC is no longer in the government, it is because we refuse to swallow with his 'martingales'. pretend to be blessed from the opposition. "
The deputy spokesperson has made clear "a constructive position with Cartagena, we are willing to work together to take forward the budget modification and reinvest the surplus, including those two projects and we will have our vote."
Subsequently, Garcia has drawn attention to the obvious differences between PSOE and MC Cartagena.
"Last year, being responsible for the Department of Finance, I brought to this plenary the proposal for the application of the surplus, having 14 votes insured." You, making faith of your arrogance, have wanted to impose it with your six councilors and your citizen paladins.
He concluded his speech by exhorting the socialist mayor's office "not to blame the opposition for the consequences of their incompetence and arrogance".
