Political and institutional decline

The tremor that started in Murcia reveals the decomposition of the parties that support the '78 regime.

The leaders of the old politics are guided by their own interests, not because of the consequences of the pandemic or because of the social suffering of the great majority. The only actor who can turn the tide is the working people, mobilized and building a new leftist and anti-capitalist political alternative.

The PSOE and Citizens (Cs) caused a earthquake political when raising a motion of censure in the Region of Murcia to unseat the PP from power. The shock wave impacted the Government of Madrid, crossed by the pandemic and a reckless management of the PP, and made Andalusia tremble and Castilla y León. In a few hours the effects of the Murcia earthquake expanded throughout the Spanish state.

The ultra reactionary president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Diaz Ayuso, took a turn of the wheel: declared the legislature exhausted and announced the holding elections on 4 of May, to anticipate an alleged motion censorship against him. If the call is specified, in the last six years Madrid will have voted in four general elections and three autonomic. The PP's declaration of war on its Ciudadanos partners was accompanied by the confession of its objective "I want to rule alone, to be quiet". The president of the PP, Pablo Casado, endorsed the maneuver despite of the doubts of the "Barons" party, and their representatives Murcians called on leaders and militants of Ciudadanos to abandon their organization and join the PP.  These movements raised a great question about the future of the governments of Andalusia and Castile and León, to which their drivers responded by announcing that in their communities the signed pacts would be maintained.

Ciudadanos made the Murcia move in exchange for obtaining their first regional presidency, that would be transferred by the PSOE. Inés Arrimadas surprised to the PP and he did the same with her, that I did not expect such a reaction in Madrid. Díaz Ayuso took advantage of the circumstances to make a play that I already had in the folder. The PP of Madrid is playing to sweep Citizens who it comes plummeting, but, at the same time, you risk the eventuality of having to govern with the extreme right of Vox in the State Capital, when it is in the process of differentiation.  

The PSOE and More Madrid, that are in full dispute with Can, they presented motions of no confidence to try to stop the elections, on which justice will have to define. All this that happened from the monday to thursday went back to change abruptly when the president of Murcia, Leopoldo López Miras (PP), announced an agreement with three Citizens deputies to “give continuity to the pact signed by PP and Cs two years ago”, which it would imply the withdrawal of the motion of censure that they had signed a few hours before. Now the surprised with the counterattack was the PSOE. Existence of turncoats and political gangsters on all sides can provoke other unpredictable actions and reactions.

Although we are facing a work of political horror with an end uncertain, some conclusions can be drawn. After the fall of bipartisanship PP-PSOE, the '78 regime has not managed to stabilize, follow creaking from the decay of their institutions, the transfuguismo, the corruption and the interests of the bourgeois parties.  He "Trio de Colón"  formed by the right-hand expressions PP, Cs and vox exploded long ago, Cs can disappear, the PP is increasingly questioned and Vox advances in some sectors at the expense of its former partners and with a rejection controlling. From the government, the PSOE and Podemos, do not provide solutions, plus well they are part of the problem since, from a false position of "left progressive", They are faithful defenders of the '78 regime and capitalism. The Current events have once again demonstrated the cynicism of Pedro Sánchez and his officials when they say that in Spain there are "normal" and one "democracy full and exemplary ".

The population is tired of economic crises, of the mismanagement in the face of the pandemic, of social inequalities, of the corruption in the government and in the Crown, of the political maneuvers of the bourgeois parties, of cuts to democratic freedoms and worker adjustments. This is expressed in partial struggles and in the environment Social, but it has not yet hatched like the 15M happened. It is necessary that workers, the students, Young, women, immigrants and everything the people decisively burst onto the political scene, with mobilizations and general strike, to impose the resolution of social needs and most urgent democratic. It is essential that the people debate and decide their own economic destiny, political and social in a constituent process, break with the EU, capitalism and the '78 regime. Faced with the repeated disaster of political parties and false options for change and reformism, it is necessary to put up a new alternative politics of the left and consequently anti-capitalist and for socialism. For boost this output, We invite you to build a socialist organization and revolutionary like SOL.
