Madrid (EFE).- The LGTBI+ groups have denounced this Monday the “hate” advertising banner that Vox has deployed on Calle Alcalá in Madrid, in which a hand with a Spanish bracelet can be seen throwing logos such as the of the feminist movement, the 2030 Agenda and the communist party, in addition to the independence flag and the LGTBI and trans flag itself.
“We are not going to allow the far-right party to continue threatening the LGTBI collective,” said the president of the State Federation of Lesbians, Gays, Trans, Bisexuals, Intersex and more (FELGTBI+), Uge Sangil, in statements to the media in front of the poster, on which can be read “decide what matters” and which he has defined as a “canvas of hate”.
Also present at the press conference was Roni de la Cruz, president of the Madrid LGTBI collective (COGAM), who has defended that this poster “is a new example of the hate project that Vox has for Spain.”
“It symbolizes the discrimination that this party wants to implement,” highlighted De la Cruz, who warns that Vox wants to “isolate, discriminate and expel” the LGTBI collective from society.
Given this action by Santiago Abascal’s party, Sangil has called on the public to demonstrate in the state LGTBI+ Pride march, which will be held on July 1 in Madrid.
“We are going to be making ourselves visible, facing the front, without fear, because we have conquered rights and we are going to defend them”, has claimed the president of the FELGTBI+, who has also assured that the group “will not take a step back” and ” He will go to vote with great pride.”
