It would have been the same if at the socialist headquarters they had not counted the ballots. Because pseudo-consultations with an induced response such as the one that the PSOE has made to endorse the government pact with Podemos, they only serve to raise the ego of the leader and render any possibility of internal criticism. 92% of yeses, although nobody really knows what was being voted, is the confirmation of how this party - it also happens to others - is already at the exclusive service of a person, Pedro Sánchez . Not even when he said that whoever moves does not appear in the photo could Guerra dream of this meekness.

Militants can commune with mill wheels. What does not fit is to insult the intelligence of others. And when the PSOE asks its bases if it agrees in a coalition with the formation of Pablo Iglesias, something presented until just over a week ago as the worst possible nightmare for the Spanish by the acting president himself, what less that would have shelled some of the measures that this entails . And not only that. Actually, what should have been asked of the socialist militants is if they support that, to be invested, Sanchez will sit down with the same ERC that has its leader in jail convicted of a coup and disabled process, and that now it is ruled humiliating the PSOE warning him to keep a preferential place at the table to the same prisoner.

Not even the barons who have always criticized that the future of the Nation may be in the hands of those who want to break it now they get the voice. Nor do they seem to have to say anything who in 2016 marked the red lines to Sanchez when he already submitted the militancy to another consultation to try a first impossible investiture. It was said then that the dialogue began and ended with those who accept the rules of the game and the constitutional framework. Now, on the other hand, the white letter is given to the messianic leader to start sewing the Frankenstein Government .

The ERC bases are also called today to another adulterated plebiscite that will allow its leaders to do what is best for them. But, at least, the independentistas vote with the knowledge of the demands that are already moving to Moncloa. So much has been raised the order that imposes a dialogue "between two governments", with interlocutors such as the architect of 1-O or Junqueras himself and with demands such as "amnesty" for the damned. It represents all such nonsense and such humiliation for the Spaniards that it is imperative that all constitutionalist forces assume responsibility before such a delicate moment. As the president of the Xunta, Alberto Núñez Feijóo , says on our pages today, "the Government of Spain cannot depend on Torra and Junqueras", but "you cannot go to third elections either." Moving is urgent.
