The PSOE, on the opening of the PP to regulate the surrogate: "It is a practice with money involved and there it usually falters"

MADRID, 30 Mar. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The PSOE has criticized this Thursday that the PP has opened up to a regulation of surrogacy in Spain and attributes it to the fact that it is "a practice in which there is money involved" and, as it has indicated, "there the PP tends to falter".

The Socialist Equality Secretary, Andrea Fernández, has explained to journalists in the halls of Congress that she is "concerned" by this position of the PP because she believes that it is a consequence of its "habitual inconsistency" in "everything that has to do with on equality and women's rights".

In his opinion, "when there is money involved", the PP "always tends to falter in its positions" and has denied the possibility that this practice can be carried out altruistically, as the main opposition party proposes. "It is that if we look at reality, money is a condition of possibility for this practice to be possible", he has indicated.

The spokesman for his parliamentary group in Congress, Patxi López, for his part, has criticized that "every time it comes to women's rights", the PP "doesn't even know where it stands". "Generally against and now it has also changed to go to a more contrary position," he said.

For the deputy, "women's bodies cannot be rented or bought" and he does not believe that "the freedom of those who want to do so" can be claimed because, in his opinion, it is "a lie." "A woman who has to rent or sell her body for money, out of necessity, is not free," he pointed out, before pointing out that the PSOE's position is "radically contrary" to surrogacy.
