Local authorities in southern Spain are financing for the first time a summer camp for youths aged 14 – 30 in which transsexuals have been formally invited to give talks.
The camp, which will take place from Sept. 11-15 at the Sierras de Cazorla, Segura y Las Villas Natural Park, is one of the 17 camps funded by the regional government of Andalusia .
Five of them cover “social issues” and one of them has been now oriented for “transsexual children” and will include workshops by the Asociación de Transexuales de Andalucía-Sylvia Rivera (Association of Transsexuals of Andalusia-Sylvia Rivera).
The camp has been organised by the Association in collaboration with the Instituto Andaluz de la Juventud (IAJ), an official body of the regional government.
Transsexual Mar Cambrolle Jurado, president of the Association of Transsexuals of Andalusia-Sylvia Rivera, told the daily ABC de Sevilla “the regional government (of Andalusia) accepted our proposal and they have been in charge of providing us with a bus, fifty accommodation places, meals, activities with two entertainers, two socio-educators for the talks and visits to the city.”
Deputy spokeswoman for VOX Ángela Mulas, who opposes the camp, wrote in a Twitter post that “what is necessary is to combat child poverty, for example. Those are the children who deserve camps that free them from real discrimination, which is poverty. We will not allow the money of the Andalusians to continue to be used for acts of lobbyists and ideologies.”
Bishop is persecuted for offering therapy after a journalist poses as a homosexual
The region of Madrid passed a law banning therapy – both psychological or spiritual for LGBT –which came into effect in July 2017.
This type of counselling is now punishable with a fine of up to €45,000 Euros (nearly $50,000 USD), according to article 70.4.c of the law of Integral Protection against LGTBifobia and Discrimination for Reason for Orientation and Sexual Identity in the Community of Madrid.
In April 2019, Madrid’s regional government announced it was investigating the Diocese of Alcalá de Henares for breaching anti-homophobic laws.
This came after a journalist named Ángel Villascusa wrote a story for eldiario.es after he posed as a homosexual and attended a counselling service provided by the diocese for free, imparted by Belén Vendrell. He accused the bishop Juan Antonio Reig Pla of running illegal “conversion therapy” sessions.
According to eldiario.es, the bishop wrote to the news outlet explaining that they were not conversion therapies, but rather sessions of educational-sexual (education in love) formation.
Eldiario.es is managed by Ignacio Escolar, a journalist who was the founder and former director of Público. Público was founded in September 2007 by Jaume Roures Llop, the head of Mediapro, a multimedia group based in Barcelona with headquarters abroad.
According to Wikipedia, Jaume Roures was born Jaime Robles Lobo (Lobo in Spanish and Llop in Catalan means ‘wolf’). It states he began his political militancy at the age of fourteen, first in Comisiones Obreras and the Front Obrer de Catalunya, where Pascual Maragall or Miquel Roca also militated and later in the Trotskyist League Revolutionary Communist (LCR) and in the Fourth International.
It also reveals he was jailed in 1969 for his clandestine militancy in Comisiones Obreras and was arrested again in 1983 for allegedly collaborating with the Basque terrorist group ETA.
Spain’s Minister of Health, Consumer Affairs and Social Welfare, María Luisa Carcedo, has called for a nationwide ban on counselling same-sex attraction.
