The PP spokeswoman in Congress, Ester Muñoz, has defended on Tuesday the measure approved by the Madrid City Council to force doctors to report an alleged “post abortion syndrome” to women who want to voluntarily interrupt their pregnancy. An initiative raised by Vox and that José Luis Martínez Almeida has supported, despite having an absolute majority and not needing the ultras to govern the city, as it happened in the last legislature.
Muñoz has first accused the press of asking about this matter to the government's dictation. “I am fully aware that the orders that the Government has given today is to launch a new squirrel so that all the issues of corruption and its incompetence and negligence and lies with respect to the lack of protection that women have felt victims of sexist violence have not been spoken. I am fully aware of the squirrel,” he said.
“In any case, I am going to answer,” journalists have granted. “I think that information is never a problem. Who has to explain why it seems to him a problem The information is the one against women to be informed,” he said.
Health will study the “legal” consequences of the proposal
The Ministry of Health will study the “legal consequences” of the VOX proposal that approved on Tuesday the Plenary of the Madrid City Council with the support of the PP to force municipal employees to inform women who want to interrupt their pregnancy of an alleged “post abortion syndrome.” The initiative has been approved in the same week that 40 years of the first law that allowed Spanish women to interrupt their pregnancy in some cases.
Minister Mónica García has assured “that it is a syndrome that does not exist as a clinical diagnosis” and “intends to relate abortion to a future of fear and apocalypse of alcoholic and drug addicts.” “We tell all professionals that you cannot lie or install bulos in women, it goes against medical practice. There is no scientific evidence but camouflaged violence,” he said at a press conference this Wednesday.
