Pedro Sosa, Councilman Green IU-Lorca has shown that the current councilor for women of this council has no sensitivity to women who suffer violence, despite being a major social problems posed by the death of dozens of women each year in Spain and millions worldwide.
Sosa said that unfortunately, the number of women claiming protection under the administration and justice is very high and demand for access to shelters is very high, so you do not understand that the foster home of Lorca is empty since August, when there are people who need and demand the service.
For IU-Green's real intention Eulalia Ibarra, Councillor of the woman, and her team of government, is to remove the resource, as did the national government by eliminating the Institute for Women, or the regional government doing same with the Institute for Women in the Region of Murcia.
According to the training, this council intends to continue the trend of his party to remove protection resources for women victims of violence, as is done in Castilla la Mancha Cospedal.
For Sosa, the excuse that women do not want to come to Lorca for fear of earthquakes, is just an excuse for Ms. Ibarra for not publicly display their true intentions with respect to this foster home, for fear of popular reaction, which would, of course, favorable to her or his administration.
The council has shown that management of the Councillor leaves much to be desired and advised to give way to others who have more sensitivity to social problems she so severe.
On this issue, Victoria Rodriguez, head of Women's IURM-Green said that "with the figures presented by the mayor of Lorca's women, women who have been victims of domestic violence in 2011, can not afford the personnel or budget cuts, much less the closing of resources that only generate the vulnerability and insecurity of women who have this situation in the municipality of Lorca "
