Juan Francisco Martínez: "They are disrespecting the people, taking Lorca for fools. Citizens and PSOE have left without the IBI bonus to those affected by the earthquakes for their total indolence with this matter."
The Councilor for the Economy in the City of Lorca for the Popular Party, Juan Francisco Martínez, has indicated that it has arrived on October 1 and as we already knew, the deadline for the collection of Real Estate Tax (IBI) has been opened, which confirms that those affected by the earthquakes will lose the 50% bonus of the IBI for the repeated refusal of the current socialist government of Pedro Sánchez to approve the Decree Law that we have been demanding for many months.
The central government insisted on stealing the IBI bonus and has got away with the complicity of the PSOE and Citizens in Lorca.
Martínez Carrasco said that it is absolutely irresponsible that the mayor now tries to deceive people, hiding the opening of the mandatory payment period of the IBI until November 18, just one week after the next general elections.
The reality is that Citizens and PSOE only try to save time, giving a "kick to follow" to the collection of the IBI.
They are taking people for stupid with this triquiñuela and we are sure that they will take their toll.
We demand to know the work developed by the current vice mayor, Paco Morales, to try to retain the IBI bonus.
Do not forget that this Mr, Councilor for Citizens, holds the responsibilities of the area of ​​Economics, so we want you to explain your work in this regard.
From the PP they have considered that we are facing a ridiculous trap to hide that the PSOE forgets those affected by the earthquakes and leaves us without an IBI bonus.
They have had more than a year to have moved a finger, but instead of helping Lorca, they have marginalized them.
The result of all this nonsense is that we Lorca have to pay 100% of the IBI this year, and they want the payment of the receipts to be after the elections, to see if they continue with the massive deception and can scratch a vote.
This "triquiñuela" does not strain.
The Councilor of the PP has stressed that this year Citizens and PSOE allow Pedro Sánchez to make cash at the expense of the pocket of those affected by the earthquakes.
The current central government takes 10.5 million Lorca because it needs to be given to its nationalist and extremist partners.
It is an absolute indecency, but the truth is that those affected by the earthquakes pay the debts of Pedro Sánchez.
Lorca continues to lose because of citizens and PSOE, because not only the 7.5 million are lost due to the IBI bonus, but also the 3 million euros that the central government owes the municipality to carry out investments in districts .
As if that were not enough, they still do not condone the state interests of public aid, although it has been required dozens of times.
While the PP has ruled, we have had the IBI bonus, but Pedro Sánchez arrived and forgot about the victims.
The difference between the treatment that the PP and PSOE governments have had with the IBI bonus is very evident: while in 2012 the Government of Mariano Rajoy carried out a Royal Decree Law to favor the reconstruction that included the IBI bonus, Pedro Sánchez He hasn't done anything.
Pedro Sánchez, instead of helping the victims has robbed them of the IBI bonus, and now his inability to agree, and his duel of arrogance with Podemos, lead us back to a general election.
Let no one forget what is happening.
We have to refute that deception that the PSOE is spreading excusing itself that a functioning Government cannot approve Royal Decrees.
It is a lie that we clarify again: it is absolutely false.
A functioning Government can not only approve Royal Decrees, it is that in recent months the PSOE has approved almost 40 for what it has wanted.
Of course none to help those affected by earthquakes.
In fact, when Mariano Rajoy encountered this same situation, he passed a special Law Decree to maintain this tax assistance.
