The coexistence of the first coalition government of democracy in Spain is full of vicissitudes and bizarre chapters.

Namely: the two partners met this Tuesday for less than an hour to "verify" that both, PSOE and United We Can, agree to agree that they agree to go ahead with what was agreed.

In other words: the crisis of the Government due to the labor reform forced Pedro Sánchez to bring together his vice presidents Nadia Calviño and Yolanda Díaz, facing each other, to "verify" the "commitment" of the Executive "to the repeal," something to which both partners had already committed to the Government pact that they signed at the end of 2019. This Tuesday, there was no further specification or detail.

Two years later, the coalition returns to the starting box, with the scar of a major crisis and the distrust and misgivings installed between partners.

It does, yes, with La Moncloa holding back the times of Vice President Díaz and the unions.

The vice president wanted the work on the labor reform to be "completed" in November.

The socialist sector of the Executive slows down the calendar and gives itself until Christmas.

His intention is to speed up the negotiation and approve the decree by the end of the year and not this month, as the head of the Ministry of Labor and the unions wanted.

Opposing positions

Sánchez is committed to delaying the process for two reasons.

First, because despite the fact that this Tuesday an attempt was made to present the crisis on the labor reform as closed, the truth is that the meeting between both partners - five ministries of the PSOE and one of United We Can - did not go down to the ground and it was not discussed. about content.

That is, on issues such as temporality, collective bargaining, the ultra-activity of agreements or subcontracts, the two vice presidents maintain opposing positions.

So when it is necessary to land these issues in a common position of the Government - something that was not done this Tuesday - to bring it to the dialogue table, there will be tension again.

In this way, the Executive agreed once again that it will repeal the most harmful aspects of the labor reform of the PP, but the PSOE still does not specify what its position is on certain aspects such as ultra-activity or the prevalence of sectoral agreements over company agreements, something that increases mistrust in United We Can, which doubts that the repeal, no matter how much it is signed again, is a firm bet of the Socialists.

Hence, despite the agreement (again), Díaz, who already demanded Sánchez to lead this matter by transferring the clash with him and not with Calviño, asked the President of the Government to execute "without hesitation" the repeal of the reform. labor.

The second vice president, with satisfaction, settled what the Executive's challenge should be: "Put an end" to the "precariousness model" that, in her opinion, exists with the model designed by the Popular Party in 2012. Do not "review the imbalances" , as the joint communiqué also collects, or change "some things", as Sánchez said this weekend.

"To end".

Sánchez wants to buy time

The second issue for which Sánchez is committed to slowing down the negotiation is because he wants to rush everything possible to allow the CEOE to enter into the pact.

With the times managed by Díaz and the unions, the employers had already warned that they would not be part of an agreement.

Taking the negotiation to two months ahead and not one allows to gain time, just when the Socialist ministries of Economy (Calviño) and Social Security (José Luis Escrivá) have entered the negotiation to protect Díaz.

Although the Government - the socialist sector - "value" Díaz's work since March at the dialogue table, they consider that now that it is time to enter into concretions and they needed to have first-hand access to the negotiation in order to have decision-making capacity. .

"The work between the entire Executive must be well combined," state government sources.

"The Government seeks, through social dialogue, a fair and balanced agreement with all parties," includes the statement that the PSOE and Podemos agreed to try to end the crisis of the coalition.

The text tried to satisfy both parties, stating on the one hand that "the Government is committed to repeal in the terms established by the coalition agreement", and on the other that the new labor legislation will agree with "the Recovery Plan sent to the European Commission ".

Calviño and Escrivá

In the socialist sector they were suspicious that Labor was not doing everything possible at the social dialogue table to incorporate the bosses.

Therefore, they put as a red line to be able to sit at the negotiation table.

Sánchez gave the approval and although the leadership of the dialogue is recognized by Yolanda Díaz, she is supervised by Economy and Social Security, who come with two general directors, supervising

In fact, the socialist sector now proclaims discretion in the negotiation, in order to avoid going into the details that still divide the partners, remembering that this discretion was one of the demands that

.

"I anticipate that the work is going fast, agile, and that in a maximum period, around the month of November, they must be completed," said Díaz a couple of weeks ago. "This month we must resolve the repeal of the labor reform," said

. "There are two months to negotiate. There is time," they oppose in La Moncloa, who does not want to repeat what happened with the increase in the minimum wage, when the businessmen were left out.

The commitment with the European Commission is to establish the "modernization of the labor market" before the end of the year.

It remains to be seen whether the calendar and the position of the employers in the negotiation make the PSOE's intention to unite the unions and the CEOE or the calendar imposed on the pact for the same purpose.
