SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, March 24. (EUROPE PRESS) –
The deputy of the Nationalist Group, Rosa Dávila, has branded this Thursday as “obscenity, irresponsibility and indecency” that the President of the Government of the Canary Islands, Ángel Víctor Torres, has predicted an economic “comeback” when the Canary Islands “is poorer”.
On the third day of the ‘Debate on the State of Nationality’, he questioned the “passivity” of the president in the face of rising prices, the fear of shortages and companies that are “faltering”.
Dávila has pointed out that Torres “lives in a bubble” and in a “virtual world” while families and companies are experiencing difficulties, for which he has demanded a “roadmap” to deal with the crisis and that it must go through the lowering of taxes and debt.
He has said that his group is going to support almost all the resolution proposals of the seven groups in search of “unity” and has questioned the “rudeness” of President Pedro Sánchez, the last one, the change of position on the Sahara without counting on Canarian institutions.
“He has sold out the Saharawi people and has betrayed the Canarian people,” he commented.
Along these lines, he has said that NC has no principles in “agreeing” on a resolution on the Sahara, without bringing together the government pact table, and in exchange for the vice president, Román Rodríguez, “remaining in the armchair.”
Dávila has called for a strategic plan for tourism and for the file on the RIU hotels in the dunes of Corralejo to be paralyzed until the Government of the Canary Islands has jurisdiction over costs.
It has requested a mental health plan, a strategic plan for energy communities, island development models and the inclusion of the Tenerife south train in the general rail network.
In addition, it has criticized the fact that 80% of the resolution proposals of last year have not been carried out and that the balance of the Reactive Plan has not yet been brought to Parliament.
His partner Lady Barreto has commented that “living every day is more difficult” due to the sharp increase in prices and given that there are now more public funds and debt capacity, she has demanded measures be taken to lower fuel prices in the ‘green islands’ ‘, because in El Hierro, for example, it costs to fill a 70-litre car for a total of 127 euros.
For this reason, he has proposed to eliminate the tax on hydrocarbons in the three islands and establish an OSP. “It cannot be that there is no solution,” he stressed.
THE GOVERNMENT “ARRIVES LATE”
He has said that the Government “is late” in taking measures, for example for the livestock sector, which needs a “rescue plan” to avoid the closure of farms and that Canarian cheese becomes a product “in extinction” .
In the case of La Palma, he has requested a multi-year reconstruction plan with concrete measures, another for mental health, that a consortium be created and the rights of those affected be shielded “against political will.”
Barreto has criticized the Executive for thinking more “in headlines and slogans” than in solving problems and has offered the “outstretched hand” of his group for decision-making but without a “blank check”. “Things can be done differently”, he has commented.
