The President of the Government and Secretary General of the PSOE, Pedro Sánchez, is not resigned to giving space to his partners from United We Can in social matters.

The last pulse within the executive, the one won by the

purple ones

with the loss due to the painful rule, has provoked the

reaction of the socialists

who, with their leader at the helm, have proposed to vindicate the banner of gender equality and to defend that the great advances are theirs.

Sánchez, in an electoral act held this Sunday in Granada, has raised the banner of social rights to defend

the achievements

that

his

government has achieved in this area in the last four years.

This includes the measures promoted by Podemos in the executive, such as the labor reform, the increase in the Interprofessional Minimum Wage (SMI) or, the last and most recent, the reform of the abortion law.

The president has not mentioned at any time neither United We Can nor that his executive is a coalition, but he has marked

socialist terrain

when taking stock of his management when the fourth anniversary of the motion of censure against Mariano Rajoy is about to be fulfilled which took him to La Moncloa.

He has not limited himself to bragging about, and appropriating, the latest achievements, but has also emphasized that the great advances in social matters

in the history

of this country have always been linked to a PSOE government.

The first law of equality, the reform of the abortion law of 2010, the comprehensive law against gender violence or maternity and paternity leaves have, he has remarked, a socialist patent.

And, now, continuing with this work, it has been his government, he added, that has promoted

equal pay

with the increase in the SMI, has updated the rule on abortion - he has not said anything about sick leave due to painful rule - or has promoted the labor reform that especially benefits women.

At all times, Sánchez has used social advances against "the right and the extreme right", without expressly mentioning his partners, although the

internal pulse

between the two legs of the coalition government is not new and, in fact, it has redoubled on the occasion of the reform of the abortion law and on the occasion of debates such as the inclusion or not in that text of the abolition of prostitution.

The PSOE is concerned that United We Can capitalize too much on social measures and, for this reason, Sánchez wanted to make it clear this Sunday that the flag of equality is exclusive

socialist

heritage .

In this sense, he has concluded that he has fulfilled his promise of four years ago to promote a "more social and more exemplary" government.

But the identification between the PSOE and equality has also served the socialist leader as an argument for the

regional elections

that Andalusia will hold on June 19 and that Sánchez has summarized that what it is about is choosing between "rights and right" and, he added, "the rights are defended by the PSOE".

Along these lines, he has argued that the Andalusian community, during almost 40 years of uninterrupted socialist governments, has been a

pioneer

in social advances, even when the country was governed by the PP "and there were setbacks".
