Sánchez saved this Wednesday the fifth extension of the state of alarm in a vote that revealed the cracks in the parliamentary majority that brought him into the investiture and that, finally, ended with the abstention of Bildu. The abertzale training started the government's commitment to repeal completely and within a short term the labor reform approved by the PP, key to the economic recovery a decade ago. Aside from the irresponsibility of putting a core rule for the economy in cash, this fix with an ETA heir formation is unworthy for Spain and the PSOE. Especially considering that it occurs the day after the puppies of the proetarras violated the home of Idoia Mendia, leader of the PSE, and just after Interior approved the approach of three ETA prisoners to prisons in the Basque Country and Navarra. Sanchez's way of putting a candle to God and another to the devil is embarrassing. You cannot condemn the violence of those who feel they are legatees of terrorism and then rely on acronyms that they served as the political arm of the gang.

In addition, the vote portrayed the weakness of the Frankenstein coalition as a consequence of the negligent management of the emergency and of Sánchez's effort to continuously feint his commitments. The Government is a victim of its errors, its incapacity, its inconsistencies, its erroneous search for unreliable allies and, above all, its lies . That Cs allowed to carry out the extension of the alarm does not mean that Inés Arrimadas has become the new partner of the Government. The support of Cs has had the potential to bring out all the insurmountable contradictions that sustain the heterogeneous majority of the Government. What is clear is that the Executive loses credit and allies. Rufián threatened to derail the legislature after breaking the "spirit" of the investiture. Other partners, such as Compromís, also left the coalition, which did manage to retain key PNV support. This chalaneo of balances is due to the irresponsibility of Sánchez, who despised any agreement with PPy Cs and ran to embrace separatists and radicals.

You cannot govern a nation like Spain and without a clear course, as Casado warned. The time to perpetuate an exceptional constitutional situation is over, relying, for more scorn, on the heirs of ETA . The crisis caused by the pandemic requires high-mindedness. Sánchez would do the general interest a favor by bridging the constitutional opposition. If not, the harsh reforms to come will end up leaving you at the mercy of events.
