  • Keys Reform of the 'yes is yes': what is going to affect the law?

The tense negotiation between the PSOE and Podemos to correct the law of

only yes is if it

enters discount time and there are no signs of progress.

What's more, the

purple

party gives clues to the contrary.

It is already rearming for a confrontation scenario in the face of the threat of the Socialists to bring a reform to Congress alone if a pact were impossible.

Aware of the schism that this would open in the government coalition and of the toxicity of the debate for its image in an election year, Podemos has launched the propaganda machine, including a powerful media agenda by Irene Montero - on Wednesday on Telecinco, this morning on RNE- to try to dispute the account of the changes to the PSOE and establish the framework that the proposal that comes out of the

Ministry of Justice

"loads" the consent as the axis of the law and that perpetrates a modification to the measure of the PP .

It has been hitting that for several days, but the top will be seen this Sunday.

We can challenge the PSOE with the organization of an act that will be led by the Minister of Equality, Irene Montero, to defend the law as it is drafted and to claim "consent" as the "heart" of the norm in the face of risk, in his opinion , that the majority partner takes him ahead by recovering intimidation and violence when setting the range of years in prison between the highest and lowest sentences.

This act has been prepared while the ministries of Justice (PSOE) and Equality (Podemos) are negotiating, where they are discussing how to change a law that for the moment has caused sentence reductions in at least 380 sexual offenders.

A number of beneficiaries that is increasing every day.

Promotes its leaders while negotiating reforms with the Socialists

The fact is that Podemos will meet that day in

Madrid

- it will be seen if with the negotiations concluded or not - the senior staff of the party and almost that of the Ministry of Equality under the title: «Did you consent or not?

Only yes is yes."

In addition to Irene Montero, the general secretary of Podemos and Minister of Social Rights, Ione Belarra;

and the delegate of the Government against Gender Violence, Victoria Rosell, who is one of the key pieces in the elaboration of the law of the

only yes is yes

and in the negotiation with the PSOE due to her knowledge as a judge.

As the title of the act says, "consent" will be the central point of the message.

Which is, with regard to the model, the issue that has confronted PSOE and Podemos.

The Socialists guarantee that "not one comma" of the article that regulates it will be touched and that only "technical" adjustments will be made in other areas, maintaining "consent" as the epicenter of the law.

However, from Equality it is argued that keeping the article intact is useless if violence and intimidation are reintroduced to set high and low penalties.

His thesis is that it means de facto repealing consent as a central question in each case to recover a model based on the victim demonstrating the aggression.

It rearms for a foreseeable clash and dispute the account of the changes

We can launch the operation to put pressure on the PSOE to save its law and, incidentally, safeguard the image of Montero in the face of the disavowal that Pedro Sánchez's order to correct the norm implies, after resisting for some time.

The battle for the story has been underway since Monday, with a very harsh message against the majority partner: it presents the PSOE as a party that is giving in to the "pressure" of the right because it is not knowing how to hold on and that, in addition, poses make changes identical to those of the PP.

Their "legs are shaking," Belarra even stated, for whom the problem is that judges are misapplying the law for acting with a "macho and patriarchal" look.

Even tougher was Pablo Iglesias, who threatened the PSOE.

«Suggest to your government partner that either you accept what I do, which is to end the law of

only yes is yes

, which is to betray the women who demonstrated, or agree with the PP, well, good luck.

If Pedro Sánchez agrees to this with the PP, he will pay for it, "he said in Ser.

The PSOE defends itself.

He says that his legs "never" tremble, that he does not wait for the PP to approve the reform and that he trusts in an agreement.

But the time that had been given is running out, and the firm decision is to act “soon” and “with great rigor”.

The 'purples' agree not to ask for a referendum to change the Constitution

United We Can promised yesterday with the PSOE to accept that the reform of the

Constitution

is limited only to article 49 to replace the word "disabled" by the concept "persons with disabilities."

It is the pact that the Government reached with the PP and it is what the

purple

party will assume despite the fact that it defends addressing more profound changes in the Magna Carta.

As it is the minimum modification, the parliamentary group will not maneuver to demand a referendum to ratify this adjustment, despite the fact that it is a possibility to which it could aspire because the request of 35 deputies is needed.

This was one of the firm demands of the PP, which rejected that Unidas Podemos and the pro-independence parties took advantage of the change to force a consultation and open a debate challenging the Constitution.

The agreement between the PSOE and Unidas Podemos was reached yesterday at a meeting held in Congress between the Minister of the Presidency, Félix Bolaños;

the Secretary of State for Relations with the Courts, Rafael Simancas;

the spokesperson for United We Can in Congress, Pablo Echenique;

and the purple deputy

Roberto Uriarte

.

"Although the United We Can group defends a comprehensive reform of the Constitution and maintains that many things would have to be changed in the Magna Carta, at the request of organizations for people with disabilities and seeking that there is a majority of groups that support it so that it can come out Go ahead with this change, it is willing to circumscribe the reform to this single issue despite the fact that there are other issues on the table that United We Can also see favorably, "the 'purple' group explained yesterday.
