The PSOE of Tinajo denounces the "serious lack of transparency" of Mayor Jesús Machín, who has not published the video of the Ordinary Plenary Session held on November 12, despite almost two weeks having passed since its celebration. Until now, the usual practice of the City Council had been to disseminate these recordings on the same day or, at most, within a very short timeframe.
It is also, a particularly significant plenary session: during the point of reporting on the decrees, all opposition groups left the plenary hall in protest against "the mayor's way of governing and the concealment of information from the council and citizens". For the PSOE of Tinajo, "that this session specifically remains unpublished is not a coincidence, but a deliberate attempt to cover up an episode that exposes the governing group".
The socialist spokesperson, Begoña Hernández, was clear: "This is not an administrative delay or a simple oversight: it is a maneuver so that the residents do not see what happened in the plenary session. We know that the video was ordered to be stopped. Jesús Machín does not want the citizens to witness the rejection and the weariness that his way of managing Tinajo and his lack of transparency are generating."Hernández emphasizes that broadcasting the plenary sessions "is a basic matter of democratic hygiene": "The plenary sessions are public and their dissemination cannot depend on anyone's whim. Withholding the video is an act of unacceptable opacity in a municipality that boasts of closeness. Those who govern must show their faces, also when the opposition confronts them and denounces the lack of information and the mayor's obscurantism."
From the PSOE of Tinajo, they demand that the mayor order the immediate publication of the full video of the plenary session of November 12 and that he offer clear explanations for the reasons for this unusual delay.
"Tinajo deserves a government that informs, that is accountable, and that respects its citizens, not one that hides images when the opposition denounces its practices. The more darkness the mayor casts on what happened, the more evident it will be that he has something to hide," concludes Begoña Hernández.
