WE ARE THE ONLY SECTOR THAT ADDS SUPPORT, MOTIONS, PROPOSITION NOT OF LAW, STRATEGIC PLAN, SPEECHES “CREDULOUS” AND OTHER CHARANGAS. BUT NEVERTHELESS, THE ONLY THING WE HAVE IS THAT: WORDS AND NOT A SINGLE FACT.

opinion article.

 

 

Political leaders will think that they have done important work with the Canarian tomato sector. The latest, the approval of a Non-Law Proposal unanimously by all parliamentary forces (CC, PSOE, PP, NC).

But today we still do not have the money for the investments we have made and the transportation we have paid for., both the EU and central and regional governments, they confer us with different programs.

that I know, I do not know of any other sector or crop in the Canary Islands that has had as many institutional displays of “solidarity” as that of tomato.. I imagine that these other sectors, They will not even remotely be undercapitalized nor will they have stopped receiving their money.

We look like the dogs and mourners of Canarian agriculture. It is our particular stigma. But it's not like that. We have talked, consensual and negotiated. They constantly change the rules of the game in the middle of the game. This makes it easy to guess the result..

They have never been aware of the jobs that this sector maintains, that has endured the lurch of the crisis like no other. We remain in the gap despite the chaotic situation that can be officially demonstrated. Non-compliance brings us closer every day to one step away from bankruptcy, to the particular feast of other scavengers.

With words we do not pay even debts, no taxes, no salaries.

And we're not asking for more than others. Only what belongs to us, more control to the picaresque, the adjustment of social and training inequalities , and in time and manner like the others...

Sometimes I wonder if in the Canary Islands we have first-class agriculture and another, no longer second, but third class.

Political gentlemen: so only some progress. This is how they end an activity, What, having a historic reputation, has gone downhill precisely because of that way of managing it.

Not only is it unfair and undeserved, It's just that what you are doing is unfair among the canaries..

Don't continue spending more resources on these paripés. Have a minimum of decency and say it clearly: They are not interested in this sector a tomato. Let him continue bleeding until exhaustion, That seems to be the strategy..

But if you think or believe that it will be that simple, they are going wrong.

The sauce left in this section of the tomato will splatter and be very sticky., don't hesitate. Lose? We have almost everything lost, but the 125 years that support us, of which we remind many that thanks to tomatoes today they are where they are, they have given us strength, courage and courage to resist this fight with dignity, something that you are quite short of.

Don't think that at the end of the movie the dead man is the murderer..

Well, they went to the tomato when things were going well..
