We have said ad nauseam that the PP does not defend the people of Canary Islands, nor the companies of Canary Islands, nor the economy of our land.
Their government is infected by the owners of the multinationals who are infiltrating members of their companies into decision-making positions so that laws and decisions are favorable to them. In this way they can steal from us according to the law.
Thus, they can legally appropriate 46,000 million of public funds to rescue the banks and for this they put the director of Lehman Brothers, one of the banks that originated the crisis, as Minister of Economy. In this way, public money is not allocated to hospitals, schools or roads, but to enrich the rich.
Thus, they have the option of destroying the diversity of the seas of the Canary Islands by putting a senior executive of Repsol as Secretary of State for Energy. And they want to fool the Canarian public opinion by saying that "if we don't get it out, Morocco will get it out". The bad thing is that this "we" is not our we: what they want to say is that if they (those of Repsol and their friends) don't get it out, Morocco could get it out. But that is also false. The oil is not in the ground as in a cistern nor does it move from one place to another. What could be under Canarian waters does not move towards Morocco if it is pumped from there. They want to scare us to manipulate us. The options we have in the Canary Islands are: either Repsol looks for it for its own benefit and that of its friends, threatening tourism and our seas, or we develop a increasingly clean and competitive tourism and a new energy and economic model based on renewables.
The benefits that Repsol could obtain will never go to Spain or to Canary Islands, but they can go to some friends they have among those who govern us: a private company is free to give something to whoever it wants.
The benefits (money and employment) of an energy model based on renewables stay in our tourism, in our companies and in the youth that will inherit our islands.
Issuing an environmental impact report when the consultations sent to the Cabildos of Fuerteventura and Lanzarote are still pending, as well as to the Government of the Canary Islands, is, to say the least, administratively irregular.
But it is likely that Repsol's shares will rise today and that in a few days they will fall again. Whoever knows how to do it can earn a lot of money quickly: keep in mind that expert speculators are part of the team.
The State Government is bugged. It is the speculators who govern us. But nobody is more than anybody, so we do not recognize their authority to decide on the resources of the seas of the people of the Canary Islands.
We say no to the theft of oil and yes to nature, innovation, to the renewable energies, employment and the future for our youth. In the Canary Islands there will be no prospecting as long as there are Canarians.
Javier Morales, Member of the Parliament of the Canary Islands
