Meeting Yolanda Díaz presents his labor reform to Pope Francis in a "very exciting" meeting
Preparation Yolanda Díaz arranged the appointment with the Pope on her own and informed Pedro Sánchez two weeks ago
The opposition puts in the spotlight the use of the official airplane on the part of the Government, the famous Falcon. Popular Party and Citizens have launched parliamentary offensive paths in response to indications that the Air Force plane is being used in an abusive, "improper" manner and for "partisan purposes" after the latest controversy over Yolanda Díaz having used it to attend a "private audience" with the Pope. In parallel, both have also presented initiatives to demand explanations for the fact that Pedro Sánchez schedules institutional events as president where he has events and congresses of the PSOE.
It has been the private and personal nature of the trip of the second vice president to the Vatican that has now unleashed the criticism of

and what has motivated them to return to the charge with the Falcon with separate batteries of written questions to force the Government to give explanations.
In addition, the PP has demanded the appearance in Congress of Díaz to justify why he went to Rome on an official plane and not paying for a regular flight.
On the use of the Falcon it rains in the wet due to doubts about the Prime Minister.
Both the PP and Ciudadanos have warned about the "systematic coincidence of minor institutional visits" and of minimal relevance by Sánchez to the same places where "congresses, events or rallies" of the PSOE are held in the afternoon, and where the President participates as general secretary of the Socialists.
The PP spokesperson in Congress,
Cuca Gamarra
, has shown her concern about both cases.
On the one hand, Díaz's trip, which has stressed that it was of a "private" nature, and on the other, the use "one weekend yes and another too" that Sánchez makes to go to events of his party.
Similarly, the parliamentary spokesman for Ciudadanos,
Edmundo Bal
, has accused Sánchez of being "cheating", just as he has criticized that the Falcon is now put "at the service of Podemos" so that Díaz can continue with his "campaign of self-promotion "going to" private audiences "at the Vatican without it having anything to do with the government.
In a brief presented this morning, Ciudadanos questioned the Government about who devised and planned the trip, for the "exact reason" why Díaz was not a regular flight to Rome and for what was the economic cost for the public coffers.
Ciudadanos also requires information on the issues that were discussed and their link with Church-State relations and their "interest to all Spaniards."
In fact, it is recalled that the Second Vice President and Minister of Labor is not at all competent to deal with official matters with the Holy See because they are matters pertaining to the ministers
Félix Bolaños
or
José Manuel Albares
.
The government had reported that the meeting, which Diaz's team had prepared for a long time, was a "private audience at the Apostolic Library in Vatican City."
After the celebration, Díaz explained that he had spoken with Pope Francis "about decent work, the Covid-19 crisis and the future of the planet."
