The head of the list looking to secure a seat in the Alicante provincial parliament with the Compromis group, Aitana Mas, met with residents of Daya Vieja, along with José Vicente Fernándes, the mayoral candidate, a day which was also attended by residents of other towns in the Vega Baja region who took advantage of the opportunity to see first-hand the electoral program of Compromís.
The conference, organised by Compromís por Daya Vieja, brought together fifty people at the Bar Raquel Kiosk, where they were able to listen to the coalition’s proposals and convey their concerns directly to Mas, who is also the current vice president of the Consell and councillor for Inclusive Policies.
Mas vindicated the government’s management model and assured that “this May 28 is at stake to continue defending the rights of the social majority or only the rights of a few.”
Focused on deploying a large social shield and protecting the most vulnerable people, at the same time that “it has managed to have the best economic indicators in the Valencian Community, as opposed to the false mantra that the right manages better”.
“In 2015 we found ourselves with a waiting list in the endless dependency system, with only forty thousand people included, seventeen thousand in an unprocessed box or dependent people as was the case of my grandfather, who saw his benefit cut from 320 euro to 20 euro in 2013. That was and is the model of the PP, as Mariano Rajoy himself said in 2011 that the dependency was not viable, currently this government has a record number of 140,000 people in the system, data that has doubled only in one legislature, making us the Community that has invested the most in dependency during the pandemic”, defended the candidate.
For Mas, “this is the management model that we are at stake on May 28, that the right wing return, which was capable of cutting the rights of those who had less, in a context of health and economic crisis we have shown that it is possible to govern for the social majority and have a strong administration to leave no one behind.
