Let's face it. Pedro Sánchez is a master of escapism and propaganda, even though less and less Spaniards are willing to buy his damaged merchandise. After one of the worst weeks for the government -more Frankenstein than ever-, the president's pirouette yesterday caused both blush and concern, because it shows that Sánchez is absolutely worth everything . Neither apologies to the citizens, nor resignations, nor admission of an error so indecent that it has scared even the socialists who have spent years swallowing everything with complicit silence. In an exercise in unbearable cynicism, the President took advantage of his weekly television program toblame his ignominious agreement with Bildu on the Popular Party for his refusal to support him in his race to the abyss . But he still had time to insist that the request for extensions of the state of alarm in Congress is a matter exclusively of health emergency that "has nothing to do with powers, financing or other issues", when it is his government that has been almost two months marketing with all the parliamentary formations and accepting all kinds of blackmail , such as that of the proetarras, to win the vote. It would provoke hilarity if our country were not at such a delicate moment.

This same week, the governor of the Bank of Spain warned that the economic crisis "is going to be longer than originally planned . " Hernández de Cos stresses that the health impact and the slowdown in economic activity have triggered public spending and sunk state revenues, which will alarmingly increase the deficit and debt . In a demonstration of responsibility and rational leadership that are so rare among the positions of many institutions, the governor of the Spanish regulator made a portrait of reality exactly as it is, without artifice, and therefore urged the Executive to design and publish a plan of fiscal adjustment that seems non-extendable , at the same time that it advocated state-level pacts with a high-mindedness, that go far beyond a mere legislature, in order to clean up our public finances through the review of spending and the tax structure and capacity . With a probable drop in GDP this year of between 9.5 and 12.4%, and irreparable damage in sectors as decisive as that of the automotive sector or tourism, the Spanish cannot afford to have their government take over. arms of the proetarras and offer them a derogation of the labor reform "absurd and counterproductive" , in the words of Minister Calviño , or that the president tries to get his leg out of the hole with announcements of bread and circuses like yesterday without any strategy or credibility.
