The president of the Canarian PP, Manuel Domínguez, said this Thursday that leaving immigrant minors with the right to asylum in the Canarias 50 center of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, as proposed by the central government, is to maintain overcrowding in the autonomous community.
Manuel Domínguez has hoped and wished that this measure will not be carried out and that the central government will begin to refer minors to other Spanish territories, since, he insisted, the Canary Islands "cannot take it anymore" and the Spanish executive "cannot continue with excuses" to act.
He recalled that it was the Supreme Court that in two rulings forced the Spanish government to care for immigrant minors who have the right to political asylum, and stressed that using the Canarias 50 center would mean leaving children in a saturated autonomous community in which, according to the High Court, there is overcrowding.
