• 12-J. Pablo Iglesias has no shield: debacle in Galicia and the Basque Country despite governing

The internal noise at Unidas Podemos seems to be always latent. Present. Either on the side of Podemos, on the side of IU or on that of the commons . Minister Yolanda Díaz is no longer part of IU. She abandoned the training chaired by Alberto Garzón a few months ago due to political discrepancies, according to sources in her environment. His departure has now been announced coinciding with the fiasco of the Galicia-in-common Anova Mareas coalition , which took out 0 seats, which implies that Podemos disappears from the Galician parliament.

"He is more Pabloist than Pablo Iglesias"; "It's from IU, although she doesn't know it" are some of the comments that could be heard regularly at Unidas Podemos about Yolanda Díaz . Now it has been known that it is no longer from IU, in information that El Confidencial has advanced and has confirmed this day. The current Minister of Labor unsubscribed from training last summer, just after the failed negotiation with the PSOE to form a coalition, they explain from her environment.

This implies that its inclusion in the Council of Ministers did not imply a UI quota as it was interpreted and would explain the pressures and movements of the formation of Alberto Garzón to achieve a ministry, considering that Díaz did not correspond to the communist formation. At the end the door was opened to a new portfolio for the brutes, Consumo , which Garzón himself occupies.

At that time, and faced with the threat of a new electoral call, from some sectors of United We Can, such as IU, the possibility of supporting the Government from the outside, without entering it, was raised. That is, that a series of measures will be prioritized, a program, and not the armchairs. The hard core of Iglesias was betting on tightening, pushing the negotiation to the limit in the confidence that Pedro Sánchez would end up accepting the coalition. There was an electoral repetition and, yes, a coalition.

A year has passed since his departure from IU, a decision that was not communicated, according to the sources consulted, because the moment was not found. They explain that the electoral repetition, the formation of the Government, the pandemic, the Galician elections ... there was always some reason that delayed the knowledge of its rupture. Now it is made public coinciding with the debacle of the coalition in Galicia, the land of Díaz, which had a prominent role, although towards the end of the campaign.

This Wednesday Díaz put a message on his social networks to pay tribute to Rosalía de Castro , which could well be a description of his situation regarding IU: "I am free. Nothing can contain the progress of my thoughts, they are the law that rules my destiny. "

Díaz continues to militate in the PCE and, from his environment, it is pointed out that he is not part of Podemos and that among his objectives it would not be competing with Iglesias for the leadership of the purple formation , a possibility that has been harbored in recent hours in party sectors. Those who know of his plans say that his intention is to stay away from internal disputes. "Yolanda and Pablo share the same diagnosis of the defeat in the Galician elections," the sources consulted by this newspaper indicate, to rule out, at least today, a dispute over the leadership.

The Minister of Labor has been in the spotlight in recent days, since being Galician, one of the leaders of the coalition in this community, being one of those responsible for Esquerda Unida ... she has looked at her at the time to look for responsibilities for electoral failure. However, Podemos still has to gather its Executive to address the analysis of the elections.
