PalmA "legislative mess" that "destroys the Minimum Decree." With these words, the spokesperson for MÉS for Mallorca, Lluís Apesteguia, assessed the bill Vox filed this Monday in Parliament to introduce the vehicular use of Spanish into the Education Law. "There are those who insist on generating tension and problems where there were none," the eco-sovereignty activist lamented. "It's not only shameful, but it's profoundly lazy to waste time on what the partners chosen by Marga Prohens are forcing us to do."

Apesteguia has denounced that the modifications to the law proposed by Vox "eliminate any reference to 50% in Catalan in education and the other percentage determined by the language projects of the centers of the Minimum Decree." "It is the umpteenth occurrence against this land," he criticized: "What will the PP do? Will it approve getting rid of the Minimum Decree?"

In the same sense, he considered that the norm opens the door "undisguisedly" to the linguistic segregation of children. "That on which the educational model has been based, that if we live together we are educated together, and we are not separated by race, origin, social class, language," disappears, he laments: "We believe in a country in which all citizens are equal, knowing one's own language is a right of citizens."

The PSIB asks the PP what it will do

For her part, the PSIB's Education spokesperson, Amanda Fernández, lamented that the school year is restarting amid the controversy over the Education Law. "Vox is going against our own language, what is the PP going to do?" she asked. Similarly, she warned that "it's not about whitewashing this law, which contains one outrageous thing after another, and striking out a few proposals and accepting others." "Any acceptance of these articles is an attack on our own language," she pointed out.
