The former CC councilor in the Haría Town Hall, Soraya Brito, has given an interview to Radio Lanzarote-Onda Cero to clarify the reasons why she is going to be on the PSOE list in Haría.
The former CC councilor acknowledges that "coherence" has led her to "go on the PSOE lists." Despite having "received very ambitious proposals," and even being "offered to be the head of the list," she makes it clear that "it is not her objective." Due to her values and not "being for personal interest," the purpose of her mandate, which is "what allows her to continue here," has to do with "contributing to the improvements of the environment of the municipality of Haría."
She admits that "I don't need politics to live" and that "it is that bug that worries me" and encourages her to continue in it. In addition, she confesses that she feels "excited, welcomed, respected and valued" within the PSOE.
She also wants to clarify that "she is on the lists" but with "the possibility of remaining independent." She acknowledges that "it would not make sense to join the PSOE" and admits that she has entered their lists because they are "the only ones who offered me that possibility."
It is true that despite this, "I share their social policies." Although in the face of "malicious" rumors that said she was in the PSOE, she confirms that during her time in CC "I have not belonged to the PSOE," only that "I have been with them in meetings with colleagues."
Four years ago when she was in the CC party, she reveals that "I began to see that there was a desire for prominence, and all because of ego." Since "what mattered was guaranteeing the places to be in the Town Hall," she acknowledges. "I swallowed hard because I was excited and I went on that list," she reveals, and although "we won the elections, it was not enough," she confirms.
When we governed jointly with the PSOE, the party began to "bring out proposals that were already from Coalición Canaria," she confirms. And after these actions, CC colleagues "were upset," something that "I did not understand," when the main objective "was to improve the municipality," she comments. An example of this is the "Haría Viewpoint."
She also adds that "everything that was achieved was good for Haría" and "there was nothing illegal." From CC they began to "invent" that "Alfredo Villalba did not let us govern in our areas," "something that was a lie," she admits. We always "worked continuously and freely in the assigned areas," she affirms.
"I can't stand lies, which is why I decide to leave"
For that reason, they decided that "we had to leave the government." "I can't stand lies," which is why "I decide that I'm not leaving and I'm staying," she argues. Until later "I leave." "I am not a defector, nor have I ever been," she makes clear.
Although she acknowledges that "things were not always the same" and "I don't want to destroy all the work that was done when I was in Coalición Canaria," she admits.
In addition, she affirms that "not everything is worth it in life" and makes it clear that "the people of Haría have to understand that it is not enough for us to just win the elections." She encourages citizens to vote since "we have to win by an absolute majority to govern without shocks" and "without any combination," she concludes.
