From Lorca City Council it has decided to respond to statements by the PSOE on landslides in the municipality following the event occurred last Saturday.
The Consistory is described as "cynical and opportunistic these statements, which show that somebody wants to exploit a tragedy like this to try to get political gain. Once again, the PSOE only remembers landslides when a case suffers so , which gives a good account of their commitment to this issue. "
"From this political group they have made a biased list of incidents, because only date back to the cases that have occurred since the PP governs in Lorca. Of the many cases in times of socialist governments do not remember or decide to work around them selfishly. The truth it is that when the PSOE occupied the mayor, never bothered rock masses. it was with the arrival of PP to local government when they have made huge investments designed to ensure the districts. in recent years have been built since embankments until the installation of screens, including the work of consolidation and meshed on the side of the Castle, as well as performances in other parts of town as Calvary Old ".
"The City Council is firmly committed to continue working on preventive tasks and executing investments to make Lorca an increasingly safer city, finding solutions the historical problems of landslides. While we continue to work, others dedicate themselves to have a selective memory and sin again and again of a political opportunism that does not benefit them. "
