The counselor of the Mixed Group in the Island Council of Lanzarote, Óscar Noda, has attended this Friday one of those days that mark a legislature. After the exchange of press releases and statements in recent days regarding the PP's proposal for debate and voting to declare Pedro Sánchez persona 'non grata' in Lanzarote and La Graciosa, the president of the Cabildo, Oswaldo Betancort and his government group, have convened a board of spokespersons that has ended in the suspension of the plenary session scheduled for this Friday.
Four minutes before the start time of the plenary session, the Cabildo informed the media about the suspension of the plenary session and announced that it would request a new legal report to clarify the requests of both the Socialist Party and the Popular Party.
Óscar Noda considers that "what happened this Friday makes it more than clear that the first island institution is governed by the Canarian Coalition and the PP with terrible improvisation and lack of coordination. Suspending the plenary session after that commission clearly announces that the government group has enormous differences and the people of Lanzarote are paying for it." "That hesitant helm that governs the Cabildo at the hands of Oswaldo Betancort cannot be allowed on this island. Lanzarote needs more seriousness, it cannot be that Betancort goes to the media and then, faced with a threat from his government partners to go to court, takes half a step back," adds Noda.
"This improvisation, these internal fights, lead, and rightly so, to people continuing to think that political activity is useless or, rather, of little use. Lanzarote has other alternatives, it can be governed in another way and that is the fear they have of losing their seat. But the question is very simple, Lanzarote does not deserve this childish and damaging improvisation to the interests of the island," concludes Councilor Óscar Noda.
Finally, the Cabildo councilor and Mayor of Yaiza, regrets that "there is no talk of the real problems of the families of Lanzarote, problems such as housing, transportation, improvements in health and roads, the great problem of water, and waste collection." "This way of governing typical of traditional parties is harming our people and we are not going to allow it," Noda concludes.
