Yolanda Díaz, the Minister of Labor, has given her "word" to bullfighting professionals at an event held in Matadero, Madrid's cultural space.

"You are going to be taken care of. We are not going to leave anyone behind,"

he told the flagger Javier Gómez Pascual, from the Cayetano gang, who approached her when he got out of the official car to witness the premiere of the play

Fariña

.

"Minister, do you have a minute to attend to me?" The banderillero asked her.

"I saw that at eight o'clock in the afternoon there was an act in Matadero. I entered through the

parking lot

. I made the meeting walking nearby and it was when I asked him if he could attend me," he tells how the meeting took place.

According to his version of events, they immediately made room for him to speak with Yolanda Díaz.

"There were two girls and two boys, with a good attitude."

Since the beginning of the pandemic, bull professionals have been rejected in the SEPE of the aid approved by the Ministry of Culture,

the "support measures for the cultural sector and of a tax nature to face the economic and social impact of the covid

", a group in which they are recognized as" artists in public performances ".

"We are aware that there are ideological motives behind all this," Gómez Pascual reprimanded him.

"There really are no ideological motives

," Díaz has told him.

"Look, I come on behalf of the bullfighters and I come to ask for explanations

. They do not grant us the aid that by law belongs to us," Gómez Pascual told him.

Yolanda Díaz, according to the banderillero, has responded

: "It is not my intention to leave anyone behind

.

"

The professional of the bull has explained to him that "we have filed several administrative demands. And a complaint. His colleague Uribes has authorized them and Labor is denying them," he recalled days after a spokeswoman for the SEPE CSIF union clarified that from the offices "They only follow orders from above."

The minister has asked him his name.

"Javier, I guarantee that you will be treated.

I give you my word."

"He has been super nice," adds the banderillero.

"I wanted to give explanations.

An attitude of dialogue. There has been no moment of tension."

He has also had time to talk about what happened in Toledo, when several bull professionals scoffed at the minister, pouncing on the official car.

"Many came from Caritas. It was not pleasant. But understand the situation,

" he said in a conversation that lasted "a minute and a half."

Later, Javier Gómez Pascual was followed by the Police.

"They have asked me for the data. They have asked me if I was alone. It is not pleasant

. I suppose that this is better than if we come with shouts and banners. If a shy and polite kid comes it still works. Or maybe not. At least I have tried Some groups wanted to come but in the end they did not agree and I have decided ".
