Mayor of Palma under fire

The Mayor of Palma, Joan Fageda, came under fire from opposition councillors who accused him of shirking his responsibilities over the increase in prostitution and crime by blaming other institutions, as he did on Tuesday for the immigration boom and the rise in unemployment caused by the building freeze. Majorca Unionist party councillor, Ferrán Trujillo, said that the general feeling of insecurity citizens of Palma have been having to live with “is neither the fault of the building freeze, the Council of Majorca nor the residents.” “The responsibility is exclusively yours and your team,” Ferrán Trujillo told the Mayor of Palma, Joan Fageda.
