MURCIA NOW regrets that the PP lacks a serious and planned social policy and notes that economic quantities handled by the Consistory to these areas can not speak, indeed, of social policy.
Councilman Luis Bermejo claims that the PP does not spend enough money to support policies and integration of the most disadvantaged people, "precisely when the current economic situation, these areas should be fundamental in governance".
After yesterday's ceremony Crossbow with 16 associations for the International Day of Disabled Persons, both physical and intellectual, the mayor of Murcia now sees only another episode of political showcase of municipal PP, no political will to improve the conditions of these vulnerable groups.
Bermejo stresses that the 208,000 euros that the City allocated in 2015 for these associations represent 15.75 euros per person with disabilities, according to data yesterday that 13,200 people are benefiting from this aid.
"Less than 16 euros per person with disability is, obviously, a really small amount," he laments.
The council stresses the phrase Ballesta, pronounced yesterday that "there is no money to pay for all the love and affection that put these entities."
"If there is not enough money," said Bermejo, "because the PP is wasted on subsidies Terra Natura in municipal contracts of doubtful efficacy (as the tram) and many other contracts that much of the budget goes municipal, but it should focus on other budget items most urgent social significance ".
"People with disabilities and social associations do not need the love of Ballesta, a mayor will demand accountability," says the councilor.
"It appears that asks Ballesta social organizations that make miracles and act heroically, when your posture should be working together and make things the most. The PP in these matters should abandon the paternalistic attitude to move to a proactive and collaborative. ".
Bermejo refers to the "lack of accountability, rigor and commitment of the PP in these matters" and notes that "not carry out the necessary actions for social inclusion is to lose an indispensable opportunity to add value to society and the economy town. It is, moreover, that the PP lacks the will to enforce the policy of equal rights and opportunities "shows.
Now the mayor of Murcia regrets that "acts like yesterday look like a bonus, rather than a serious and planned social policy. In addition to the economic amounts that handles the consistory can not speak of social policy".
Bermejo, finally, notes that in addition to direct associations of disabled aid, investments in the city ahead of this group, for example to adapt it and make it accessible, "an area in which much remains are do, as these groups are responsible for periodically remember. "
