PSOE reactions
The PSOE has regretted that the mayor has “no intention” of working so that the Committed Film Festival and the Slow Film Festival, which have gone to Azuqueca de Henares and Cabanillas del Campo, are held again in the city.
This is how the socialist councilor in the Guadalajara City Council, Gemma Mínguez, regrets it, once Guarinos has voted against a motion presented by the Municipal Socialist Group “with which we want to defend a culture for our city free of censorship and plural, as the one that Alberto Rojo planned during the previous mandate”.
The socialist motion also urged the government team to recover programs such as ‘Primavera encuentada’ or Halloween, “which have been eliminated from the city’s cultural programming due to mere sectarianism, depriving citizens of two activities very loved by our children.” .
“It is a shame that Guarinos has lost the opportunity to stop this cultural exodus that our city is suffering, depriving our neighbors of a right such as access to culture,” said Mínguez.
The PSOE has also regretted that the Government team has also rejected the socialist motion in which it proposed to the mayor to implement a plan to eradicate hateful attitudes in sport, “a propositional motion that only sought to encourage the municipal government to carry out prevention, awareness and sensitization tasks against racist, lgtbiphobic or sexist episodes that have no place in our sports culture.”
