The PSIB asked the mayor of Calvià, Juan Antonio Amengualto explain the situation of the government pact that PP and Vox maintain in the Municipal Council, after the first mayor dismissed the general director of Police, Civil Protection, Maintenance, Transport, Mobility, Urban Services and the rural world, Fernando Palmer, named by Vox.
This demand from the socialists arises after the “tense plenary session” experienced on Monday between the two parties that make up the government team and the subsequent dismissal of this position which was also responsible for negotiating budgets, as the PSIB explains in a press release. statement.
“For the moment, citizens do not know if the pact is broken, if it is functioning normally, if the mayor is going to fire more Vox officials. or what will be the next explosion of Vox which will attack its partners and, more precisely, the mayor”, declared the spokesperson for the PSIB of Calvià, Natividad Francés.
The socialists say that Calvià “does not deserve this instability”, because citizens “do not understand the political struggles and disputes”.
“While they fight and decide whether to separate or make peace, the Calvianers need them to rule, assign the 99 protected houses once and for all, and set in motion everything they found done and still arrested,” he said. .
The PSIB indicated that it had already warned the mayor of the “danger” of governing with the “extreme right”. They therefore regretted that Amengual had discovered the “uglier side” of his partners 15 months after signing the pact.
In this sense, they stressed that “words are not enough” and asked the local representative to “get to the facts” and to be “courageous to the end”. “Because if, after all this crisis, everything remains the same, what will become clear is that what matters most to each other is to stay in power and continue to be paid,” they said. they added.
For the PSIB, the only ones responsible for this “crisis are PP and Vox”, since they are the ones who “brought this situation to its climax by taking over the little management they have done until now”.
“It’s time for the mayor to make decisions and define how he wants to move forward with the legislature. Right now the 2025 budgets, which set policies for an entire year, are in danger and Calvià does not deserve this,” Francés said.
For the socialist councilor, this “wound remains open” for the rest of the mandate and “no one guarantees that it will not be reopened at a given moment”. “The only one who loses with all this spectacle are the citizens, who do not deserve the situation that PP and Vox have caused,” he concluded.
