Let's change Murcia demand to the municipality of Murcia forceful measures against the machista violence (09/08/2017)

The sectoral group Women, Feminism and Equality blames the initiative presented by councilmen Concepción Ruiz and Jesus Pacheco not enough to not collect any action beyond the presentation of a logo.

Lola Poveda, a member of the Women, Feminism and Equality Sector, has lamented today that the only initiative of the city of Murcia to denounce and avoid sexist aggressions during the September Fair is the presentation of a logo to be included in the festival program .

Following the presentation of the initiative, Poveda believes that the city council has missed an important opportunity to raise awareness against sexist violence with actions aimed at raising awareness.

In contrast, the city council has decided to highlight the role of women in gastronomy and bullfighting, framed in the Guided Tours of Feminine Plural.

"That the only idea of ​​the city council to fight against the macho aggressions is to emphasize the role of women in bullfighting or gastronomy is a joke in bad taste and a total lack of respect to the groups of women who are fighting against violence and Male assassinations, "said Poveda.

In that sense, the councilor of Cambiemos Murcia Margarita Guerrero denounces that the Equality Council has not met since the beginning of the year and recalls the need for urgent approval of the Equality Plan 2017 - 2019, initiative of Cambiemos Murcia approved by the Plenary of the City Council In March of 2016 to govern the policies of equality "and not to function based on improvisation of the Popular Party".

In addition, Guerrero recalled the amendments submitted by his group to the budgets of the city by 2017 with the aim of practically double the amount of the program 'Equality Policies' from € 385,232 to € 732,667, amendments that were rejected by the Popular Party and The abstention of the rest of the groups.
