The ultra spokesman emphasizes that in Spain “almost 100,000 abortions a year continue to occur constantly since 1985” and that the State “invests more in death than in life”
The Vox spokesman in Congress, Iván Espinosa de los Monteros, has warned that Spainalong with South Korea, Taiwan and Singapore, “is in the queue of the world” in the birth rate.
“In Europe, the only country worse than us in birth rate is the Vatican, there is no other”, assured the Vox spokesman during the opening of the work session ‘The demographic winter: Can we stop the demographic suicide of Spain?’ in the Congress of Deputies.
Despite this, Espinosa de los Monteros has recalled that in Spain “still producing almost 100,000 abortions per year consistently since 1985″ and that the state “invests more in death than in life.”
“That’s the moral state we live in. The most tragic thing is that in a scenario of so much public spending, the only family policy that this Government has adopted is to cut the pension of working mothers, persecute those who offer alternatives to life, introducing in the Penal Code the crime of going to an abortion clinic to try to offer solutions to pregnant mothers who are thinking of having an abortion; and the open borders policy that sees in massive immigration the only solution to the demographic winter”, he criticized.
Thus, the Vox spokesman has defended that the future “goes through giving prestige to fatherhood and motherhood again.” “There is nothing more valuable than bringing children into the world. From Vox we have the firm will to implement laws that protect the family and with visibility and political momentum through a Ministry of Family “, has proposed.
Although he has recognized that “there is no magic solution”, he has stressed that, when it is in his hands, Vox will adopt “all the measures” that they have seen work in the countries around Spain. “We must win the battle of life and sow birth policies that contribute to making Spain great again”, he has sentenced.
People over 65 years of age, according to data from the National Institute of Statistics provided by Espinosa de los Monteros, account for more than 20 percent of the Spanish population. In addition, in Spain last year 113,000 more people died than were born and the number of births has fallen by 28 percent so far this decade.
“Today there is talk of family, of demographic suicide, we have a serious and silenced problem, the time has come to recognize it and face it“, the Vox spokesman pointed out, highlighting that these “urgent priorities” had been “renegade” in public institutions because the debate “had remained hidden by the progressive consensus.”
In his words, the debate that I am going to the Lower House this Friday on ‘demographic suicide’ “is one of those that politicians do not want to know about.” “Without children there is no future. It is an obvious thing that had never been heard in Congress, nor in almost any institution”, he has stated.
The Vox spokesman has also assured that the rest of the political formations have been invited to participate in the conference but “none has wanted to participate”. “With the utmost humility we think that Vox has the opportunity to contribute to a certain change,” he concluded.
