Pedro Sánchez: more continuity than change
The PSOE gets the nod on the left, but does not rotate… There are more promises made. A serene relief is perceived by the fall of M. Rajoy and the PP, They both keep rolling down the stairs.. Your partner, citizens, He also tripped and had to hold on to the railing.. Not for less, They were the protagonists of years of injustice, corruption and adjustment.
With its president in the Moncloa, the PSOE climbed some steps, handing out promises of dialogue, social recovery and transparency. Nevertheless, the breeze that came through the window did not bring fresh air. Pedro Sánchez's central objectives are: sustain the monarchical regime, apply the “Frankenstein” budget of the PP and obey the mandates of the EU.
The Council of Ministers expresses the bipolarity between decision of continuity and pose of change in which the government moves.
The PSOE formed its own Council, cerrado, without incorporating Podemos, which was its main ally to win the motion of censure. In every wallet, The ministers started by differentiating themselves from the previous ones. Good, trying to do it since these are officials who could easily be liked by the PP and Ciudadanos.
Ministers talk about raising salaries, go back with the labor reform and seek agreements. Nevertheless, They are the promises of a weak government that intends to relocate in view of the next elections. Equally, with 84 own deputies, They will be forced to negotiate with Podemos and other forces.
The truth is that they are defenders of the regime of 78, reactionaries and anti-workers. Declared enemies of Catalan self-determination, That is why they want to condition the dialogue with the Government, while there are pro-independence political prisoners, exiled and prosecuted.
Of course, They are no strangers to corruption. One week after receiving your wallet, Màxim Huerta already had to resign, Minister of Culture and Sports. He had two sentences from the TSJM for defrauding the Treasury in 218.322 Euros. And there are others questioned.
Corruption is so widespread that after the Gürtel case that sentenced M. Rajoy, Another sentence was issued for the Valencian PP and Iñaki Urdagarin was given five years in prison, son-in-law of the emeritus king Juan Carlos I, although they saved Infanta Cristina. Leaving this look above, an orientation from below is imposed.
It is necessary to prioritize a social agenda to solve the immediate problems of workers and the people.
Insufficient salaries, job insecurity, pensions misery, women's pay inequality, poverty, Deteriorated public health and education, unaffordable rents and evictions cannot wait any longer. Neither can the Gag Law nor the cases against union members for exercising the right to strike be accepted..
The first task is to support those who go out to fight, like the postal workers did, Aena, Amazon, H&M, the Metal of Cádiz and others. The CCOOs, UGT and all union leaders should open a broad debate in the factories, Offices, schools and workplaces so that workers can democratically decide the list of demands to defend and a plan of struggle to obtain it.
It is inadmissible that the wealth produced by the country continues to be used to favor bosses, bankers, rich and speculators. They must go into the pockets of working people.
Nevertheless, This is not enough since the exhaustion of the monarchical-parliamentary regime and the Constitution of the 78, it continues to be translated into Bonapartism, corruption and oppression of the people, mainly Catalan.
Let's go back to the streets like the indignant did, the Catalans, women and pensioners, but united.
To demand the convocation of a Constituent Assembly, Free and Sovereign. The big social and political issues must be debated democratically, with mobilization involved so that the changes are truly progressive, in favor of the great popular majorities and the peoples oppressed by the Spanish State.
