First control session of the year for the president in Cortes Carlos Mazón. The Valencian parliament resumed its activity this Wednesday with a plenary meeting in which, for the first time in nine years, all spokesmen of political groups were male and a decree was made to reduce public transport prices until June. The session was marked by opposition attacks on Consell’s “large failure to pay” and the removal of supervision of the first vice president and Minister of Culture. Vicente Barrera, Valencia Administration carried out the tourism campaign in favor of the LGTBI group 24 hours ago and Mazón called this a “personal opinion”.
The left, which demanded that the president of Consell dismiss Barrera this Tuesday, was quick to go on the offensive on this issue and, according to PSPV and Compromís, demanded that Mazón distance himself from the words of the Vox leader. They are not “personal opinions” but rather “hateful” and “homophobic” statements. as he said Rosa Peris, “whether a potato omelet is better with or without onions is a personal opinion”, but opposing this campaign is “political”. “There is not a loose string in your Consel, you have the extreme right,” the socialist summarized.
However, Consell’s president handed the microphone to the second vice president. Susana CamareroHis ministry is running the campaign that Barrera questioned. Neither the first vice president nor any Vox council members spoke during the entire control session.
Thus, Camarero acknowledged the “inconsistencies” that he described as normal within the Valencian Government. “It’s the same as in Botànic,” he said, before highlighting one difference: “Here they are produced in a different way, faithfully,” the vice president said.
On a specific issue, Camarero argued that the opposition “doesn’t care about Barrera’s opinion” but rather the content of the campaign, which he says “shows that the banner of diversity is not the property of the left.” The head of Social Services defended Consell’s commitment to LGTBI policies, emphasizing that it “works as a whole for everyone, regardless of ideologies.”
Camarero argued that this view was shared by the LGTBI community and insisted that this was the reason the opposition attacked the initiative. “Consel works for everyone, campaigning for a modern and diverse community. The group is happy with how Consell operates. They’ve lost the flag and that’s what bothers them. Their moral superiority has convinced them it’s ‘just’ the problem. Yours. Without sectarianism or ideology “We’re going to be interested in diversity.”
Mazon for non-payment
Mazón personally took on the task of repelling the attacks of PSPV and Compromís on cases registered in various parts of the Generalitat, such as addiction, pharmacy payments or the payment of reserve workers or Education payrolls. From the podium, the Consell chairman reviewed the payments made at the end of January, taking into account the resolved issues. “Point to his mouth,” Camarero shouted at the socialist ombudsman. José Muñoz.
In addition to this “indefensible management” of payroll payments and several visits to the Cortes, the PSPV spokesman accused Mazón of “putting pressure on the media.” The socialists released a video in which the president of Consell complained to some workers. À Bet The space allocated to him in the news programs of Valencian public television.
Mazón emphasized this issue and insisted on presenting a conciliatory profile to the opposition; He once again offered the opposition “agreements” on financing (with special emphasis on the stabilization fund into which the president dragged Vox), renewable energy sources, ceramics. or to renew legal bodies. “What new PSOE will we find?” he said, connecting this suggestion to the organic moment that PSPV was going through.
Camarero also attacked the socialists on that side, in response to his deputy Mercedes Caballero’s question about what the popular party did not understand. “I understand that they are in an internal moment that will make their blood boil, because ‘I either put myself in the photo or I don’t’. Reorganize yourself and be a useful opposition,” he said.
