The president of the Corts Valencianes, Llanos Massó, from Vox, and the deputies of this political group have avoided putting themselves on the banner displayed before the institution in protest of the murder of a woman yesterday in Antella stabbed to death by her husband. The concentration has been carried out in a timely manner and the majority of parliamentarians and other staff of the regional chamber have stood behind a banner that read "Les Corts contra la violència masclista". However, the members of Vox, including the president of the Corts, have stood aside to avoid the banner.
In the call, signed by the president of the chamber, neither the term 'macho violence' nor the term 'gender violence' appeared. Two forms of violence that Vox rejects and prefers to include within a generic 'intrafamily violence' against European, national and regional legislation. In fact, that term does not appear in the Corts document either and it limits itself to speaking of "murder of a woman without further ado.
"Following the indications of the Presidency of the Corts Valencianes, a concentration of 3 minutes of silence is called in front of the Palau dels Borja, today, July 10, at 12:00, to condemn the murder of a woman that occurred in Antella this weekend. of the week" says the letter verbatim.
And at twelve o'clock in the afternoon, the representatives of the various groups have gathered at the doors of Les Corts, but while the deputies of the PP, the PSPV and Compromís have done so under the slogan 'Les Corts against male violence' (Les Corts Corts against macho violence', those of Vox have been placed aside, which has generated criticism from the PSPV and Compromís.
The one who has avoided criticizing its partners has been the Valencian PP. Its spokesman in the regional Parliament, Miguel Barrachina, who did hold the banner of the institution along with other leaders of his party, has indicated that its content "pales when there are aggressors who take to the streets" due to the application of the Law of only yes is yes. For Barrachona "beyond symbolism" what seems wrong to him and causes him indignation is the murder produced.
Due to the fact that there was any doubt about the position of Vox, its spokesperson in the autonomous Chamber, Ana Vega, has admitted that they do not agree with the content of the banner and has emphasized that its formation condemns all violence regardless of who exercises it. .
The tragic event occurred this Sunday, when a 53-year-old man killed his 38-year-old wife in the family home located in the Valencian town of Antella, in front of his 12-year-old son. Subsequently, the man committed suicide, the Civil Guard reported.
