Madrid, December 17, 2020. – Declaring hunting as an essential activity and allowing the free mobility of hunters is essential to control the damage to agriculture caused by the overpopulation of some species. That is why VOX has once again pressured the Government of Díaz Ayuso to carry out these measures in the Community of Madrid.

"Closing the bridges was supporting the rural world? During the bridges the streets were crowded with people and that is why infections have risen. The problem is not mobility, but crowds. Let the people of Madrid move freely, ”demanded Íñigo Henríquez de Luna.

The VOX deputy spokesperson recalled that even one of the PP's national deputy secretaries -González Terol- promised to open all the Communities governed by said formation so that hunters can move freely and contribute to maintaining the natural balance, controlling the overexploitation of species that damages agriculture. But the Community of Madrid has not complied with it. "They should have approved a reciprocity decree, at least, with Castilla y León and Castilla-La Mancha," he recommended.

And he continued: “It seems reasonable to him that Castilla y León, governed by PP and Cs, has allowed the entry of hunters despite the restrictions; and also that of Castilla-La Mancha, governed by the PSOE, and the very liberal Madrid, right? ”, asked Henríquez de Luna. "VOX does not share that new Madrid nationalism of the PP, that of‘ Madrid for Madrilenians, ’" he said.

For all this, the VOX deputy once again pressured the Minister of the Environment to open the Community to hunters. “Hunters move and hunt in many territories. Closing Madrid only harms the control of wild fauna and causes more damage to livestock farms ”, he lamented. "Declare hunting as an essential activity and allow free mobility," Henríquez de Luna concluded.
