Roberto Sotomayor, Podemos candidate for Madrid City Council: “Ayuso is a health terrorist”
The candidate of Podemos for the Madrid City Council, Roberto Sotomayor, has assured this Monday that the president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, is a “sanitary terrorist”, “as thousands and thousands of citizens who attended the Demonstration for Public Health”. Sotomayor has accused Ayuso of neglecting the mental health of the people of Madrid, for which he has promised to hire 1,200 psychologists in response to the action of the “health terrorist” Isabel Díaz Ayuso, president of the Community.
In an informative breakfast in which he was presented by the General Secretary of Podemos and Minister of Social Rights and the 2030 Agenda, Ione Belarra, and in which the Minister of Equality, Irene Montero, and other prominent members of the formation of left, has emphasized that suicide is the leading cause of unnatural death among young people.
Sotomayor has also criticized the mayor, whom he has accused of having turned off the cameras again this Sunday so that the massive influx of protesters could not be verified. In addition, he has denounced that the Madrid City Council dedicated itself “to putting fines on the residents of Carabanchel for distributing leaflets” to encourage people to go to the health concentration. “Almeida must be removed from the City Council, otherwise it would be a failure of the progressive forces”, he has sentenced.

Last week, the PSOE decided to present its proposal to reform the law alone, after failing to reach an agreement with Unidas Podemos on the matter. Asked if he trusts that his coalition partner will finally join the proposal, Llop has indicated that he “trusts” that there will be “a consensus among all parliamentary groups” to move the reform forward. “Its only objective is to restore the victims and prevent low sentences from being imposed for serious events,” she stressed.

-The new leadership of Ciudadanos clashes with Inés Arrimadas over Vox’s motion of no confidence: the new leadership of Ciudadanos, headed by Patricia Guasp and Adrián Vázquez, has another opinion regarding the motion of no confidence against Sánchez proposed by Vox : unlike what Arrimadas intended to do, they have said they will vote ‘no’ if it materializes.
-Ayuso coldly serves revenge against those close to Casado: Enrique López, the first to fall: Enrique López has resigned from the PP as a step prior to his return to the National Court.

-Living without bank offices or ATMs: “They have completely abandoned us”: While the big banks make records with their benefits, with profits of more than 20,800 million, Spain empties itself of ATMs and bank offices and the elderly lose autonomy in managing their own money: “Many people do not have enough studies to use the Internet and must trust those closest to them.”
