The high court considers that the flag of the LGTBI collective is not a partisan symbol nor does it "advocate any type of confrontation"
El Supreme Court has endorsed this Monday that the flag LGTBIQ + can be hung on the facade of the Public Buildings during the celebration of PrideSpecifically, they understand that it is not a "symbol of partisan significanceNor "advocates no type of confrontation» but rather it is a recognition of a group in the same way that buildings are illuminated with different colours on different international days.
The Contentious-Administrative Chamber of the Supreme Court has ruled that the Provincial Council of Valladolid and Ayuntamiento de Zaragoza They did not violate the law regulating the use of flags when they decided to hang the rainbow flag on the facades of buildings and that its use is fully compatible with current legislation on neutrality.
End of the excuse
El break the law It has been one of the excuses that different public administrations have given each June to not hang this gesture during the days of PrideFor example, this June, we have seen how large capitals such as Madrid, Seville or Valencia they have avoided having gestures.
Madrid, during the previous legislature, already used messages completely unrelated to the claim of Pride and Seville, with the arrival of the PP to the consistory last year, joined this initiative. Meanwhile, the PP in the Valencia City Hall left out the associative fabric LGTBIQ + in the city and designed parties with the Generalitat, leaving the events as mere recreational events. City councils such as that of Guadalajara or Toledo, governed by PP and Vox this year did not hang the rainbow either.
The judge who opposed same-sex marriage also opposes it
Jose Luis Requero, the magistrate who during his time as a member of the General Council of the Judiciary I was in cagainst gay marriage, has issued a dissenting vote against the measure, indicating that both the movement LGTBIQ + as the flag alludes to “acronym that brings together various sexual tendencies that support various postulates, including those of the so-called gender ideology, which are not peaceful and regarding which there is division in society, whether due to beliefs or ideology.".
In addition, the downside to hanging the rainbow from the facade of town halls is shown, since "It champions some controversial ideological postulates that are behind the symbol» which means.
