• Politics Congress validates the labor reform thanks to a PP deputy who claims to have voted against it

An "own goal".

This is how the Executive of Pedro Sánchez defines the historic error of the

popular

deputy Alberto Casero that this Thursday allowed the labor reform to be carried out in Congress.

And, even if a footballer scores in his own goal, "the team that wins, wins".

The Minister of the Presidency, Relations with the Courts and Democratic Memory, Félix Bolaños, has used this Friday the soccer metaphor to celebrate the ruling of the PP and the advance of the text promoted by the government coalition, which saw the light involved in a huge controversy : through a "variable geometry" that disgusts United We Can, with the rejection of its fundamental partners and under accusations of "ribbling" by the opposition.

Faced with this complaint, the PSOE has accused the PP of "buying the will" of the two UPN deputies who, with their surprise negative vote, would have overthrown the labor reform had it not been for

Alberto Casero

's erroneous vote : "The only thing left for us to find out is the price that the PP has paid", has launched the socialist deputy general secretary, Adriana Lastra, who has accused the formation led by Pablo Casado of designing a new episode of "political transfugismo".

In this way, the theory of a new

tamayazo

promoted by the PP

gain weight among the parties that make up the government.

A thesis that United We Can also defend, from where it is also believed that the PSOE should learn the lesson that variable geometry is not reliable and that the only way to bring the legislature to a successful conclusion is through the investiture block.

Thus, while the PP launches the suspicion of "prevarication" about Meritxell Batet, from the socialist side of the Council of Ministers it has sought to stifle the "show" given by parties such as the PP or Vox, which announced an appeal before the Constitutional Court in the case that the Table of Congress does not study Casero's complaint, which ensures that his right to vote was "vulnerated", because the meaning of the support he issued is contrary to what he really expressed.

"Second opportunity?"

"If every time someone makes a mistake in the vote, it has to be repeated, the deputies would do nothing else. They would be repeating votes continuously. It has always happened. When one makes a mistake, there is no second chance for anyone," Bolaños said in statements to Wave Zero.

"Where does the House rules say that there is a second chance?"

For this reason, Bolaños, who has recognized that the decree was approved by the "minimum", has asked the main opposition party to "accept with sportsmanship" what happened on Thursday afternoon in the hemicycle, which basically has defined as "anecdotal" compared to the step taken in labor matters.

However, from the socialist flank of the Government, despite the fact that "it is concerned" that the transparency and functioning of the institutions are "constantly questioned", they will not be against the PP or another party going to court.

"Everyone has the right to appeal," Defense Minister Margarita Robles said this Friday, but "what is approved is what counts."

Bolaños, "calm down"

Beyond the decision of the popular parliamentarian, which his party attributes to a computer failure, the controversy surrounding the plenary session this Thursday points to the two UPN deputies for skipping the voting discipline and rejecting the decree.

Félix Bolaños was one of the main people in charge of tying up the support to get the majority for the labor reform through an alternative arithmetic.

However, he has said he feels "calm" despite the fact that the Navarrese deputies, whom the UPN leadership has asked to deliver the minutes, voted against the criteria dictated by their formation.

"My responsibility is to talk to everyone. I take it for granted that when there is an agreement, it will be fulfilled," said the Minister of the Presidency, who, critical of Sayas and Adanero, said that he thought they were "people who fulfill their word and they are decent.
