SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, July 4 (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Minister of Labor and Sumar candidate for the Presidency of the Government, Yolanda Díaz, has appealed this Tuesday to “end the monoculture” of tourism in the Canary Islands and that the islands do not become a “tourist colony”.
In a rally held in the Plaza del Adelantado de La Laguna before more than 300 people accompanied by the head of the list for the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Alberto Rodríguez, has demanded “to be able to live with dignity” in the Canary Islands and that the youth ” may have a future.”
He has said that “precariousness in the Canary Islands is over” and for this he has defended the implementation of a “different” economic development model and against what “bipartisanship” has historically promoted in the archipelago.
At the same time, he has demanded to “stop the abuses in the house” because “a great injustice is being committed” with the rental prices, apart from the fact that the house has become an “object of desire” for foreigners, who buy in the islands and continue to “raise prices”.
Díaz, originally from Galicia, has confessed that she is “fed up” with both Galicians and the Canaries being singled out as “the periphery” because they are their “own center” which is why she sees it as “key” for Sumar to obtain deputies for the Canary Islands .
In addition, he has defended the labor reform and the application of the ERTE that allowed many workers and companies to be “saved” and “raised” what the pandemic had brought down with the zero tourism of the archipelago.
