Archena Socialist Youth (JS Archena) has welcomed the decision by the Supreme Court on Education for Citizenship, "a statement that defeats the argument and strategy of the PP, which shows its irresponsible attitude in implementing a crude campaign against the subject with the sole purpose of opposing the government of Spain and cast doubt on the validity of a law passed by Parliament, which finally has seriously harmed thousands of students around the country, which now risk of losing the course. "
"Everything that has happened around the subject has been the clearest example of irresponsible opposition is doing the PP since it lost the March 2004 elections," said the Secretary General of Archena JS, Michael Ruiz, who has asked the leaders to stop prosecute popular politics, and is aware that the place to make opposition to the government is Parliament and not the courts.
To JS Archena, "the Supreme Court's decision imposes a neutral view on teaching a curriculum that also civic values, compared with primary resistance and subject to a moral qualms of PP and its allies in this crusade against the teaching of values contained in the Constitution and the Declaration of Human Rights "
According to the Young Socialists, the PP has to realize that you can not make a strong opposition by the "anything goes", because ultimately the people affected by this attitude are citizens, as will happen to students and Parents who have listened to the repeated appeals to the objection made by PP leaders, supported by the Episcopal Conference and some Catholic organizations, and will now have to find solutions to the problem of refusing to attend a compulsory subject in the school curriculum.
To Mireia Ruiz, PP strategy to keep constantly in tension to a sector of the radical right, and noise and inciting rebellion against the decisions taken by the Government and the laws passed by Parliament is not useful , "because as we have seen does not help win elections, nor responsible, nor own a game that aims to win democratic elections.
"The Spanish need the main opposition party is critical of the government, from the loyalty and responsibility, because it is the only way for there to add, and contribute to democratic life."
Finally, the Secretary General of JS Archena has expressed his desire that the Supreme Court decision will serve to put an end to the controversy on Education for Citizenship, "a subject that is only intended to educate the youth of our country on the values enshrined in our Constitution and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and that certainly can help build a better society in which all citizens know their rights and duties, and therefore the best exercise.
