Socialist Party spokesman, Pedro Lopez, poses the City Council to intervene if the company reaches Latbus to directly manage the urban public transport routes, should also suspend the competition to renew the concession until 2027.

On the one hand, Lopez said that "taking this step, before the possible termination of bus service by the bidder, the City Council would be acknowledging their failure in the policy of privatizing essential public services due to lack of control over business who provide them. "

In addition, the PSOE mayor stressed that "if the City takes over city buses would not make sense to keep the public competition to then take over another company this service until 2027, so it would have to turn to radical policy has so far betting on governance. "

For Lopez "from this point of view, changing lines or the application of new criteria for the rates would be much more flexible when we had to adapt the service to the needs of citizens and ensuring that prevail always offer the best service that corporate profit. "

In addition, Lopez asks the mayor and the council chamber Iniesta not to resort to outbursts and asked to maintain a conciliatory attitude to try to reach agreement as soon as possible because the biggest losers in this conflict are the citizens.

"We have almost two years with strikes and problems with public transport at this time has been more than demonstrated the inability of PP leaders in this field to agree among themselves on the City Council and the Community, and the little interest to find solutions Latbus "qualifies the Socialist councilor.

All this, as the Socialist spokesman has been "a lack of confidence in public transport in Murcia, that instead of increasing its travelers each year, lost a drain on users in all urban lines due to lack of interest in strengthening it. "

Support workers

Finally, the spokesman of the PSOE has returned to show support of the Socialist Group Latbus workers and their families are enduring a difficult situation because they are entitled to their payrolls since the problem is resolved.
