The island secretary of CC in Lanzarote, Migdalia Machín, has denounced the "contempt" of the socialist Minister of Migration to the islands of Lanzarote and La Graciosa, and has demanded that María Dolores Corujo, president of the Cabildo and general secretary of the Lanzarote PSOE, have "the same courage as her counterpart in the Cabildo of Fuerteventura, Blas Acosta, and ask for the resignation of José Luis Escrivá."
"As is known, after delaying his visit to the Islands, hiding behind a tight work schedule and ignoring the worrying migratory crisis of recent months, the minister decided to make his appearance last week in Tenerife, Gran Canaria and Fuerteventura, forgetting about Lanzarote and La Graciosa," they point out from CC.
This demonstrates, in Machín's opinion, "the little weight that the general secretary of the Lanzarote socialists and president of the Cabildo has in her party at the level of the Canary Islands as well as the State."
"Does not raise her voice"
The island secretary of CC does not understand the "obedient and servile" attitude of María Dolores Corujo. "I have said it repeatedly, she does not raise her voice, and even in such a critical moment with the arrival of five pateras and with the minister in the Canary Islands, she has not reacted to defend us," she emphasizes.
Likewise, CC believes that "the only thing that can be expected from this president is that she continues to relocate irregular immigrants in warehouses and hotel establishments, without raising her voice, to cover the neglect and incompetence of the State Government, when it is something, moreover, that does not concern the Cabildo of Lanzarote."
Finally, the nationalist leader emphasizes that, "in these complicated moments, what we need right now are institutions with strong leaders that generate confidence, that indicate to us what is the plan to follow." A plan that, according to Migdalia Machín, must involve demanding the transfer of immigrants from the Canary Islands to the Peninsula, the operation of the Integrated Exterior Surveillance System (SIVE); the reinforcement of FRONTEX, the European Border and Coast Guard Agency, and the use of the diplomatic route through the various institutions to implement development policies in the countries of origin.
