Granada (EFE) that Carmen Calvo leads the socialist candidacy in this province for the elections on July 23.
The mayor, who has had responsibilities for Employment, Youth and Entrepreneurship in the outgoing local government, explained at a press conference that this step represents a “symbolic resignation” of a municipal team that belongs to a party “parasitized by a latent transphobia absolutely worrying,” he said.
He has accused the PSOE of having approved the so-called Trans Law “reluctantly, like someone who has a tooth removed without anesthesia”, and has positioned the former minister Carmen Calvo as the “most visible head” of a “transphobic movement”.
“The PSOE’s auction is to put it as number 1 on its lists for Granada for Congress, it is intolerable,” said Rodríguez Salas, who added that he cannot remain silent about this situation “in any way” in the face of the person who considers that he has done the most damage to trans people.
“misnamed feminism”
According to the councilor, within the PSOE there is a “misnamed feminism”, understanding that you cannot be a feminist excluding trans people and considering them “intruders”.
