Cristina Duque criticizes that "the traditional procession of the little donkey became a hurdle race last Sunday, since the City Council did not have the foresight to cut off traffic on the streets near the Church through which the Palm Sunday procession was to pass."

At 11.00 in the morning and with the three naves of the temple filled with parishioners, the celebration of the Eucharist began, after which the processional route took place, as every year. Due to the event, "the parishioners were dodging cars in circulation while accompanying the image on its journey," emphasizes the socialist spokesperson.

"As is known by the population that professes the Catholic faith, with the celebration of Palm Sunday the events programmed in Holy Week begin. This is also the case of the parish of San Ginés, in Arrecife," they comment from the party.

For them, "those responsible for this lack of respect towards the Catholic citizens are Astrid Pérez, and the Councilor for the Local Police, Jacobo Lemes."
