• El Hormiguero.La "movida" by Santiago Abascal and Pablo Motos

The body presented dozens of stabs. El Hormiguero was the place chosen for the crime. The culprit did not deny it, he did not hide it, his name was Íñigo Errejón . The victim did not see him coming, but he knew that it would happen sooner or later. He was Pablo Iglesias and was stabbed without compassion at the watchful eye of a single witness, Pablo Motos .

No, it is not the last bestseller , nor the latest bestselling black novel, it is a summary of what Pablo Motos' interview last night turned to the More Country candidate, Íñigo Errejón , in El Hormiguero . It was the chronicle of a crime announced, of an expected crime, of a crime that even the 'victim' knew was going to happen. It was an interview with only one objective: to stab what had been your friend, your colleague, your partner ... Stab Pablo Iglesias . The name of the novel is already written, it was a film, and it is none other than Loving Pablo -and not precisely Pablo Motos-.

The 'sicario' Errejón - understand the irony and humor - went to El Hormiguero to finish off what his compadre had been and today is, say, the well-trodden caste. "Did you get to bathe in Pablo Iglesias' pool?" , the ants asked at the end of the interview. The answer was the last dagger he had left to nail: "No, they didn't invite me. I don't know the house."

It must be recognized that Íñigo Errejón tried to hide that inquina that he still keeps in the depths of his being. He tried the rally that we are accustomed to, he tried to unroll the "dense" -Word of Motos- More Country program, he tried to weather the controversies around a party born of celerity and fatigue and that without having yet weaned he already has some another corpse in your resume. And he almost succeeds, he almost achieves what I call the success of a rally interview, but there was a third party in discord, he was there, he was the long shadow of the past, of the present and if he did not remedy the future, there was Iglesias.

"The most critical of you say that you are a swollen figure, that you have no experience and that you have split in two We can ...", asked Motos at the start of the interview and Errejón was clear, the best defense is a good attack . "I am proud to have been consistent with my ideas. The last time I came - and what if it rained - we talked about new politics and politics, until the new one, has aged very quickly (...) All Spaniards in your life Every day they have the capacity to reach agreements, except political leaders. " The corpse presented a first stab in the heart, where more damage could be done, in its very being, in the origin of a party that was born to end the old politics, with that of bipartisanship, with that of the caste, and that He has ended up becoming, or rather aging, the same thing he criticized.

Obviously he did not once say United We Can and rarely said Paul, but the message was more than clear: when he was in Podemos, Podemos was still the new policy, now Podemos is already an old policy and on top of an old policy he does not know reach agreements In fact, if the first stab of the 'sicario' Errejón went to the heart, the following were direct to the spinal cord, to the disability of United We, of their leader, to reach agreements, to give a Government to Spain, to put a little of order and concert.

  • "We are not going to put acronyms ahead of the country."
  • "I think it was a good decision to take a step forward to give another option to what there is."
  • "We are going to vote for a progressive government."
  • "We now say it very clearly, we are going to support a progressive government and we don't have to agree on everything."
  • "In Spain there is no progressive government because they put their interests ahead of those of the country."

It has become clear? Because he can say it louder, he will, but he can't say it more clearly. More Country was born to reach an agreement, the agreement that Pablo Iglesias did not get with Pedro Sánchez, the agreement that was broken, according to Errejón - and that is what we all think - because individual interests, personal phobias and desire prevailed of armchairs before the interests of an entire country.

"The most important difference - with United We Can - is that the More Country deputies are going to vote for a progressive government to unlock the country," and thus the entire interview. That is, More Country does have an electoral program and does have a project despite its sudden and stunned birth, but what has to be clear to the voter, the citizen is that they are not going to do what Pablo Iglesias and company did - about the whole company - they are going to unlock the country, they are going to sit and talk and they are going to separate the differences so that this is done by going to vote every two by three or three by four. "In moral terms, repeating elections every time politicians want means that many people can ask, does politics have to do with me?" What does the campaign closing act sound like?

The "movida" of Santiago Abascal and Pablo Motos

And that Pablo Motos was not intimidated by the ease of rhetoric of this so-called new policy. Yes, he was friendlier than with Santiago Abascal , easier, more 'say what you want', but He tried by all means and in every possible way to enter the most controversial aspects, always with the corpse present, the Errejón candidacy .

But it is difficult, very complicated when the one in front of you is clear about what to say, how to say it, when to say it and why. They are speeches learned and apprehended , an impassable wall in which only one's rhetoric fits and in which it is difficult to find a slit to sneak through. "The emotion of tiredness must be turned into something good." The one who warns is not a traitor, is he?

This in the first act of the Greek tragedy, in the second, in the knot of the novel, the stabs continued, but also entered into matter. They followed the low blows, blows like "I have done many campaigns with a lot of money and few ideas" . A good listener, few words are enough. If More Country is now financed with "crowfounding campaigns, with donations, with austerity, with savings, with trips by car instead of by train, with my salary -2,400 euros per month as a deputy of the Madrid Assembly-", obviously Those campaigns with a lot of money and few ideas were from another era, from the time of Podemos, from the time of the Iglesias-Errejón duo.

Pablo Motos asked about the resignation of Clara Serra , about her criticism of Errejón's leadership, about the ways it had been done, what was being done, but Errejón did not want to enter. He confined himself to a "she is an excellent companion and a great deputy, although she does not agree on many of the things she has said" and a -for that we are in pre-campaign- "I think it has been a good decision to take a step forward to give another option to the one there is. " Because there is, we already know what it is and we already know what you think about it. And he did not need to mention United We once. How clever they are! How clever it is!

"If Sánchez and Iglesias have said they don't trust each other, you don't know him and you don't talk to the other, how are you going to reach an agreement? " Come on, let's put our head on a tray. "These elections are not normal, they are an embarrassment. It would be nice to say all the parties why they will vote after 10-N. We are going to vote for a progressive government. Do we do that because we get along with the other parties? ? I don't think so. "

And the question came, what we all want to know, with what has been machining, conspiring and theorizing for many months: "You left Podemos because something would happen ...". Íñigo Errejón left because nobody loved him. " You can't be in a place where they don't love you , but above all it's a matter of ideas." He who does not love me, on the other he dies that he prefers to another and he does not love him.

As it is also true, or so he said, that he does not know Pedro Sánchez, that there is no conspiracy theory, that More Country has not been born from the hand of the PSOE to sink to Podemos, than a conversation once in the elevator of the Congress from floor -1 to 1 day to create such a Machiavellian plan. Do we believe it? "In Spain there are plenty of conspiracy theories. Beyond all that in Spain there is no progressive government because they put their interests ahead of the country." And the mule come to the wheat , yes, it has already become clear that Iglesias prevailed his own, mine and the other to block a government, that Sanchez did the same, and that More Country will fix it. From the same saint, you will always hear the same miracles.

"Pablo Iglesias said you had no program, now you have it. For example, the 32 hours of working hours, " we entered into the subject, the angels of heaven shouted. "(...) For the pie to be distributed larger it is essential to work in the sectors of the future and not work as Chinese, with all due respect." But Pablo Motos did not convince him, he did not see that working four days a week is something possible and he asked, but it did not help. "We have to make it progressive. But it is already happening. Today we work less hours than a century ago and continue to produce, through machines, knowledge ... Better jobs, higher salaries, more training ... We have to invest more in some sectors than in others. We must invest to free the sectors of the future. " But, hey, all this will not be possible, if there is no government. "There is no God who develops a country project with elections every six months . " Pablo, Pedro, has it been clear to you yet?

They talked about marijuana , that More Country wants to legalize it for a medical issue and because, what milk! To have more income for the state coffers. They talked about how he tried it when he was young, but he doesn't like it, because he doesn't like smoking and because "I'm more salty than sweet." They talked about Manuela Carmena "baiting" him with fabada, with croquettes. They talked about pensions, about pensioners, that you have to raise pensions with the rise in the CPI should be included in the Constitution. They talked about his salary and that "if you live differently from your neighbor, you forget reality." Oh, if the one in the chalet hears you! , Motos snapped. There, putting the finger in the sore.

They ran out of time because Pablo Motos does not want to give any of the candidates a second more than he has given to others, but he gave them time for the tax discourse, that the rich contribute more than the poor, that the crisis that lies ahead catches us with the duties done, that Errejón is no longer so revolutionary, that he does not want what is happening in Venezuela for Spain, but that what is there "is not a dictatorship". Oh Lord!

There was time, little, but there was for Catalonia , for the sentence, to say that it would be in favor of a "binding referendum", but as long as there is first a great agreement that later has to vote - "The agreement has to be more than 80%, but does not exist or will exist "- . To say that he does not agree with the sentence of the procés, but that he respects it and, above all, to emphasize that those who have not done their job have been the politicians. "I think there will be no reunion between Catalan society and society as long as there is an anomaly. That has to be in agreement with the construction of bridges in Catalonia (...) We have been 10 years in which politicians instead of approaching positions have served to make trench policy . "

  • "Would you go to live in a chalet?"
  • "I live in the center and I really like that, but you never know how life is going to change you."

... And the crime was perpetrated .
