The president of the regional government reproaches that the PSOE deputies “have been absent from plenary sessions for a few months now”
The president of the regional government, Fernando López Miras, defended that the decision to withdraw the draft reform of the Statute of Autonomy of the Congress of Deputies approved this Thursday by the Regional Assembly is “perfectly legal and democratic.”
Specifically, López Miras responded in this way when asked about the decision of the Assembly approved with 24 votes in favor of the PP and those expelled from Ciudadanos and Vox. By contrast, the deputies of PSOE, Podemos and Ciudadanos decided to absent themselves from the vote in protest for what they consider a “democratic outrage.” In this sense, the Murcian president criticized that the PSOE deputies “have been absent from plenary sessions for a few months now” and “neither intervene nor vote for those initiatives and motions presented by the Citizens or VOX deputies.”
“The socialist deputies do not participate in the debates of those deputies who understand that they do not deserve their respect, they are like that”, according to López Miras, who recalls that this Thursday they staged it “getting up” but “it would have been the same if they had not left , because they have been doing it for several weeks now, failing to fulfill their function. He has defended that what the decision adopted by the Regional Assembly is “perfectly legal and democratic.” In fact, he recalled that “it is not the first time it has been done in Spain.”
In this sense, he recalled that the last time it happened was with the Statute of Castilla-la Mancha in 2010, since it contained “the closure of the Tajo-Segura transfer.” The text reached the Congress of Deputies and the PP presented amendments precisely so that the aqueduct would not be closed. In response, the Castilian La Mancha parliament “requested that C-LM be returned again to prevent it from being approved with those amendments.”
“And before it has also happened with the Statute of Castilla y León or the Canary Islands”, according to López Miras, who defended that “it is something normal that the law includes, that it can be done and that it has been done.” “Therefore, if the law establishes it, it is legal and it has been allowed to all the communities, I would not understand that it is not done with the Region of Murcia”, according to López Miras, who considers that, if it is prevented, “it will I would be committing a crime.
