The Secretary of Institutional Policy of the PSOE, Alfonso Rodríguez Gómez de Celis, this Monday urged the President of the Canary Islands, Fernando Clavijo, to "force" the PP, as a government partner, to reach an agreement on the distribution of unaccompanied immigrant minors or, otherwise, to "expel" it from his executive.

In a press conference at the PSOE headquarters in Seville, the socialist leader stated that Clavijo has the "enemy at home", in reference to the PP as a partner of the Canarian Coalition government in the archipelago government, and reproached him for "appealing equally to the PP and the PSOE in the face of the drama" of the continuous arrival of unaccompanied minor immigrants to the islands.

He recalled that the PSOE and CC agreed on a reform of the immigration law that the PP has voted against, and therefore, he urged Clavijo to "force his government partner to reach an agreement for the solidarity-based distribution -in the peninsula- of the unaccompanied foreign minors who have arrived in the Canary Islands" or the other alternative is to "expel" him from the Canarian government.
