The PSOE of Arrecife criticizes that the Arrecife City Council spent more than one million one hundred thousand euros on the San Ginés festivities and does not rule out that more expenses may appear.
The socialists reproach the mayor of Arrecife that "there is no money in the city for sewage infrastructures, nor for rainwater networks, nor for transportation aid, nor for our elders, nor for those evicted from Titerroy, among many other needs." Cristina Duque harshly criticizes the PP's management in Arrecife, which she says "has become parties and millions for the owners of Ginory.”
"Astrid Pérez doesn't have time to go to the Water Consortium, nor to receive residents, nor to be on the streets during floods, nor to manage the city, but when it comes to a party, the mayor of Arrecife gives it maximum priority," they denounce from the PSOE. "There is no spending limit, and of course she is always in the camera frame for the photo," they add.
For Cristina Duque, this expense is "an excessive waste, it cannot be that in August money is being spent as if it were overflowing and a month later our city is the worst municipality on the island with the flooding from the rains.” "And that there are not even 300 thousand euros to fix the homes in Titerroy," the socialist councilor laments.”
Three hundred thousand euros for the Luis Fonsi concert.
The socialists consider the cost of the Luis Fonsi concert, which amounted to 300 thousand euros, to have been "brutal." For the socialist councilor, it is "an unacceptable figure by all accounts for a city that as of today has, for example, aid for university students' transportation unpaid." “Politics cannot simply be a continuous party without solving the real problems of the citizens.”
The most expensive recognition in history
Likewise, the PSOE of Arrecife considers "a waste the expenditure of more than 71 thousand euros on the appointment of Rosana as Favorite Daughter." Astrid Pérez even set up a stage in the Canary Islands park with giant screens, sound and lighting without a single citizen seeing the intended spectacle. “Astrid has the ability to turn a simple distinction into a bottomless pit of public money,” says the socialist spokesperson.
Finally, the PSOE of Arrecife demands that the mayor of Arrecife invest money in basic infrastructures and in elementary aid for the city and the residents. “It cannot be that the PP political group and its advisors live in a constant party that we all pay for,” says the socialist spokesperson.
