Vox’s spokesperson in the House of Representatives, Pippa Millan, said Tuesday in an interview on RNE that the PSOE is “losing” complaints related to workplace harassment, referring to those filed against former Moncloa councilor, Francisco Salazar, by … The women who work for him.
For Milan, the Socialists in government “neglected the victims” after sending “500 million euros” to the Ministry of Equality and “were not able to reduce the number of victims” of sexual violence by a single number. The spokesman pointed to the controversy over anti-abuse bracelets and the approval of the “Only Yes is Yes” law as scandals that explain the current situation of the department led by Ana Redondo.
Milan declared: “As long as we have people in government who despise women, who spend all Spaniards’ money on prostitutes, and who, when faced with a harassment complaint against the ruling party, not only do not lose it, but do nothing at all. If they cannot impose order in their party, they will not be able to impose it in Spain either.”
Moreover, she accused the government of “appointing activists” at the head of the ministry without “knowing how the situation of violence or crisis is really going”: “What happens when activists are appointed, when anti-abuse bracelets fail, who do not know how to solve this kind of situation, who do not provide coverage for all these women who have been subjected to violence.” The spokesman stated that Irene Montero, former Minister of Equality, is also an “activist”, while Redondo acts like a “hooligan” with Pedro Sánchez.
They shame the government for investing “500 million euros” in equality and for not reducing “the number of victims by a single digit.”
Referring to the crises surrounding the Ministry of Equality, Milan believes that “a long time ago” Redondo should have resigned “due to the failure of the bracelets that recently broke down again.” The spokesman said: “We do not know why they insist on this system and nothing has been done about it yet.”
Fox proposes a “life sentence” for crimes of sexual violence
Regarding the measures proposed by the group led by Santiago Abascal, Milan pointed out that the Vox party “was the only one that proposed life imprisonment for all crimes of a sexual nature such as rape” because “not only must the punishment be toughened for all these degenerates who commit this type of crime, but it must also be a deterrent system.” He also raised the need for means for state security forces and agencies “to prosecute crime because on many occasions they find themselves handcuffed in very dangerous situations.”
Finally, she focused on “reinforcing” cultures that “mostly believe that just because you are a woman, you have to walk three steps behind your husband.”
