The Department for Equality published and then removed a job on the social network Ana Redondowith its closest team at the ministry’s headquarters “to monitor the effects of DANA on equality”. In one of the pictures the minister’s notes have been readwhich seemed to explain how take advantage of the political moment that caused the tragedy.
In his papers, one could read harangues like: “This is our moment”.
The ministry denies any “confrontation” interpretation of Redondo’s reported remarks.
According to a spokesperson for the Redondo department, it was “a harangue” to his team so that they “continue to give everything” in disaster management. “Each department in its area of competence, we must demonstrate that public administrations are there to serve citizens,” adds this source.
“Failed leadership”
But the truth is that in these notes, whose image was deleted a few minutes after a huge controversy was organized on the social network, we could also read a message of pure socialist argumentation. “Failing leadership does not mean replacement” This is clearly read on the pages that the minister holds with her left hand in front of her subordinates.
Asked about this sentence, taken from Minister Redondo’s notes, Equality’s sources refused to comment on it or give it any interpretation. The equality spokesperson argued: “I don’t know if this sentence is like thatso I can’t give you an opinion on what you’re asking me.”
Yet the image is unmistakable. and your coincidence with the arguments of the government and the PSOEin the midst of controversy over the distribution of responsibilities for the mishandling of the tragedy, gives reasons to interpret the first controversial expression – “this is our moment” – as a interest in reaping political benefits from criticism of Carlos MazónPresident of the Valencian Community.
Beyond the number of victims and missing persons, the incidents of Sunday with the attacks of Pedro Sanchezin Mazón and the Kings of Paiporta, or the devastating effects on infrastructure and the economy, the biggest controversy since last Tuesday has been Should the central government have declared a state of national emergency? and, therefore, took control of the crisis, displacing Mazón.
In fact, even the leadership of the People’s Party asked for it privately, from the start of the crisis, and now publicly, as it has done. Alberto Nuñez Feijóo Monday.
The Executive refuses to do so, and even President Sánchez went so far as to affirm in an institutional declaration last Saturday that “If the Valencian Community needs more resources, it should ask for them”. All this despite the fact that since Wednesday the government was already criticizing Mazón, also off microphone, accusing him of having “dragged his feet” in the first hours of the crisis.
PSOE argument
During the “coordinated communication” session of this “third operational meeting” of Equality, Ana Redondo sent other messages to the team of the Ministry of Equality, according to her notes: “Climate dogmatism and climate denial = kills” ; ” Faced with this, technicians and scientists“.
Furthermore, the minister’s notes folio includes more purely ideological sections: “Transformative power of public policies (supported by public funds, everyone’s taxes, true solidarity)”.
And finally, it culminates with specific messages that coincide with those launched by President Sánchez, during the press conference he gave after the Council of Ministers to explain the Immediate Response Plan for the reconstruction and recovery of the Valencian Community: “No worries. We have a plan. EMERGENCIES. Reconstruction. Ralanz“.
