The City Council supports farmers Lorca and requires the National Government not to give in to pressure from Morocco (12/02/2009)

The mayor of Agriculture says that current approaches to "condemn to death our primary sector," so he will file a motion to the next full defending the interests of farmers Lorca.

The Consistory will support the sector if they undertake new demonstrations

Agriculture Councilman of the City of Lorca, Angel Mecca, has ensured that the terms in which the National Government is considering negotiations with Morocco's agriculture is "a death sentence against primary sector Lorca."

Mecca, who participated in yesterday morning in Madrid at the protest organized by Coag against these talks, has indicated that the city council fully supports Lorca farmers on this issue, and stated that "the interests of families Lorca living to work our land are the same as ours, and we will be with them claiming their work. "

Mecca is anticipated that the Government Team will present at the plenary session of February present a motion to be agreed with the unions and agricultural cooperatives in which they claim, inter alia, that the state closely monitor the exports arrivals from Morocco respect the current vacancies, as they have been very cooperative and unions who have expressed that these quotas are not respected.

Also from these associations have given us their concern that these negotiations can end giving way to genuine free trade with North African countries in general.

From City Hall we wonder how it is possible to impose strict quality control, sanitary and phyto-products of our farmers, while traveling to Spain from the countries in question do not count in their places of origin with the same certificates and quality assurance processes.

It is unfair that farmers are treated like Lorca foreigners.

The motion will be taken to the next plenary session includes also the requirement to the National Government to carry out a study of social and economic impact will the measures being put on the table in the negotiations are ongoing with Morocco.

From the city council believe that the state can not forget the interests of farmers Lorca and yield to Morocco as it is doing so far.

We therefore demand the Prime Minister, Mr. Rodríguez Zapatero, not crumple under pressure Moroccan and defend our farmers.

"The PSOE is killing agriculture Lorca"

The mayor of Agriculture has stated further that this week we are seeing a "real bombing of government against our primary sector.

First charged the Tajo-Segura, today we condemn desalination.

I hate to think what might happen tomorrow. "
