• Hemeroteca Budget Debate: Rajoy's error in the vote and the broken chair

  • Chronicle The 'superplumber' of the Popular Party who saved the labor reform: "My vote is wrong!"

Errors in

congressional

votes are more common than you think.

And, of course, not only Alberto Casero is wrong.

Sometimes there are curious contradictions, like when Mariano Rajoy voted against his

Budgets

From him.

Unintentionally, of course.

The opposite of Pablo Iglesias, who spoke twice in favor of the Budgets of the PP.

Something similar happened to Yolanda Díaz on Tuesday.

The second vice president of the Government voted against the possibility of investigating the crimes of Francoism, mistakenly rejecting the consideration of a bill that her group supported en bloc.

This is stated in the detail of the votes of the Congress of Deputies.

Sources close to Díaz have assured that it was a mistake.

Not surprisingly, she herself had "negotiated to vote yes," they add.

It was a proposal for a Law by

the Mixed Parliamentary Group

to modify the

Penal Code

, presented with the support of

ERC

,

PNV

,

EH Bildu

,

Más País

,

Compromís

,

Junts per Catalunya

,

BNG

and

CUP

.

It consisted of a single article aimed at exploring alternative ways for the Spanish courts to judge the crimes of Francoism.

Specifically, it advocated "allowing the trial" and "the condemnation of acts or omissions" of the Franco dictatorship "which, at the time of their commission, constituted, according to the law recognized by the nations that make up the international community," crimes against humanity or genocide.

After Yolanda Díaz's labor reform went ahead due to the error of the

popular

deputy Casero, now she has been the one who has confused the meaning of her vote.

At that time, and "beyond the variable geometry," Diaz assured that "you don't play with people's lives" and that voting should not depend on votes that are not well tied.

The proposal on the crimes of Francoism did not decline because of the

purple

leader , but because of the vote against the

PSOE

, which joined those of

PP

,

Vox

,

Cs

,

PRC

and

Canary Coalition

, who defended that the bill violates the principles of legality, legal certainty and non-retroactivity, since these crimes were not incorporated into our regulations until 2004. "After analyzing the jurisprudence and a recent

Constitutional

order, doubts are raised that international law protects non-retroactivity", justified the socialist deputy

Indalecio Gutiérrez

.
