The PP will ask the Government of the Canary Islands for explanations for the “waste” of 105,000 euros in a Feminist Perreo Festival

In a statement, the popular has considered that it is “nonsense” that this expense has been made “to link dogging with feminism”, adding that it is an investment of its own “of those who live far from the reality of Canary Islands and of the real problems that the canaries face, especially the young”.

In this way, the popular will ask the Minister of Social Rights, Equality, Diversity and Youth, Noemí Santana, what has been the contribution that the event has had in the fight against gender violence, while calling it “frivolous “trying to educate young people in equality and diversity with acts like this.

“With 35.16% youth unemployment, with 86% of young people who are unable to emancipate themselves, with 19% who neither study nor work, it is an insult to common sense that the priority for this government is to promote reggaeton workshops and concerts. “, declared Navarro.

Likewise, the popular criticized that this event has been registered within the State Pact against Gender Violence “because it does not seem that this initiative is the most appropriate to combat this social scourge and protect the victims.”

He also recalled that the Canary Islands is the community with the second highest rate of calls to 016 and that in the last quarter of the year the complaints grew by more than five percent.

“With 365,000 canaries in severe poverty, more than 18,000 waiting for the Dependency and with more than 500 benefited aggressors, 30 of them released, by the law of ‘only if it is yes’, allocate 105,000 euros of all canaries for the enjoyment of fewer than 300 people says very little about a government that claims to be feminist, progressive and social,” he concluded.
