Council of Ministers: The government spokesperson makes the United We can make public the internal differences
Division.Unidas Podemos blames Vice President Ribera for refusing to prohibit the cutting of water, electricity or gas
The difficult and tense coexistence in the
Council of Ministers
begins to fill patience in sectors of the Government.
The friction and the Podemos strategy of putting pressure on the public, airing certain discrepancies, sometimes even putting ministers in the spotlight, has led
Moncloa
to demand that the ministries, especially those of United We Can, stop airing in the media sphere dirty laundry.
This is how it was transferred to all departments yesterday.
What Pedro Sánchez and Pablo Iglesias promised that the Government "will speak with several voices but with the same word" already sounds like a dead letter.
Yesterday, from United We Can, the discomfort with Vice President Teresa Ribera was transmitted on account of the dispute over the prohibition of cutting off electricity, water and gas.
The
purple ones
accuse her of stopping this measure, from
Ecological Transition they
explained that they have a draft ready to prohibit cutting off the electricity for four months to vulnerable people.
Insufficient measure for Podemos.
The shock could well be one more in that normality of the permanent dispute in which the Government partners live, but it showed that in the PSOE, patience is being full.
Because that public pressure towards Ribera occurred only hours after the warning that was launched from Moncloa to the ministries.
In the United We Can sector they justify their position by arguing that the disputes or demands they transfer are matters that are framed within the Government pact.
There is a feeling that the PSOE, on certain issues, has a hard time moving from words to deeds, and that if it were not for that pressure and for the fact of installing the measures in public debate, they would not be carried out.
In the PSOE they believe that they stick their heads out because they do not improve in the polls
In this sense, they explain as an example what happened with the ban on evictions, another of the issues of discrepancy. In the absence of understanding, Podemos took off with an amendment together with ERC and Bildu to demand it from the PSOE.
The
purple ones
consider that without this action the prohibition of eviction would surely not have been achieved.
That is why from the hard core of Iglesias it is urged, in communities and municipalities, to put housing in the foreground.
In this context of differences, also in communication policy, the Government spokesperson, María Jesús Montero, yesterday reproached Podemos both for its criticisms of Ribera and for publicizing them.
What is "logical" and "normal" is that the debate "takes place" within the Council of Ministers and then "we can communicate the decision that has been adopted."
"This is how we usually conduct ourselves most of the members of the Executive," he added, referring to the socialist attitude.
They point out that the relationship between the partners will change after the Budget
In the PSOE they are very aware of the attempts of Iglesias to personalize the problems to isolate Pedro Sánchez and turn to him as a referee at the appropriate time.
One day it is Nadia Calviño and another is Margarita Robles or Teresa Ribera.
Their purpose, they explain, is to bring the debate to their field from within and from outside the Government to improve their negotiating position.
They find it necessary to convey that without them the socialists would not do some things.
This strategy, they acknowledge, has been on the rise, something that they attribute to their decline in the polls and the lack of revenue from having a vice presidency and four ministries.
But they also point out that these imbalances may end as soon as the Budgets are approved.
That at that time, with a horizon of stability, the relationship between the partners will change.
