Nueva Canarias-Bloque Canarista (NC-BC) in the municipality of Teguise has expressed its total rejection of the municipal accounts for 2025 of the government group of Coalición Canaria (CC), Partido Popular (PP) and the trans fugitive councilor of Vox, Ginés González.
For the president of the Local Committee of NC-BC, Belén Machín, “these budgets go against, precisely, the very objectives set by the government group in its budget report, since they neither prioritize essential public services nor do they promote new investments.”
According to NC-BC, the amount budgeted for new investments is scarcely 1,665,000 euros, that is, 4.24 percent of the entire budget. An amount, they continue from the organization, “that reflects that this government group considers its mandate concluded and is satisfied with the little, or nothing, that has been done in these two years.”
“When a government group does not encourage new investments, it is a government group without ideas, projects and initiatives. An interim government awaiting the electoral period,” comments Machín, who “warns that in terms of social rights, scarcely 110,000 euros are allocated to home help; and the housing problem is once again ignored with a mere budget of 25,000 euros for housing rehabilitation.”
Similarly, NC-BC criticizes the lack of prevention in terms of security and emergencies, since only 25,000 euros are invested in Civil Protection. An amount that does not reflect that anything has been learned from the floods of last April.
“We have registered a motion for Teguise to urge the Emergency Technician of the Insular Consortium to prepare a new Municipal Emergency Plan that incorporates a Flood Risk Plan. We must learn from what happened and shield ourselves,” says Belén Machín.
With everything, NC-BC announces its negative vote to these municipal accounts that leave Teguise in “stand-by” and without the capacity to face the challenges and opportunities that arise.
“A budget destined for advertising and electoral propaganda,” says Belén Machín.
