• Government Sánchez admits that the law of yes is yes has generated a "problem": "And I fall short"

  • 'Only yes is yes' Podemos raises the clash with the PSOE after saying Llop that "violence is proven with a wound"

The impossibility or inconvenience for Pedro Sánchez of breaking the government coalition, despite the serious crisis opened by the reform of the law of

only yes is yes

, forces La Moncloa to exhibit unity from the outside.

Outstretched hand, willingness to agree, although the statements of one and the other add fuel to the fire.

"Teeth, teeth..." although it is evident that we are facing an initiative that has caused the most important clash between PSOE and Podemos in three years of legislature.

But behind the scenes, the discomfort between the partners is evident.

From the

purple sector

for the disavowal of Minister Irene Montero, the ways and forms decided by the socialists to change a flagship law of Podemos.

In the socialist sector there is anger at the attitude and positioning of its partners.

They do not like to be presented as constantly giving in to pressure.

Fed up reigns.

In the socialist sector, for example, with the law of

only yes is yes

, they make Podemos ugly that the "intelligent" thing would have been to "rectify before" and not resist for so long.

Drop by drop, the glass is filling up, despite the fact that, to this day, the purpose of both partners is not to break the coalition.

But that discomfort, palpable in La Moncloa, ratifies the PSOE in the approach of not giving in to the demands of Podemos in pending pacts such as the

Animal Welfare Law

-it will be voted on tomorrow in Congress-, the

Housing Law

or the so-called

gag law

.

"Balance";

"legal security";

"Not leaving sectors of society aside"... are the arguments defended by the Socialists to justify their positions that, on occasions, not only lead them to clash with Podemos but also with governance partners such as ERC or Bildu.

The PSOE has decided to carry out its approaches and principles in the pacts and laws that remain pending in this year of legislature, some as important as the

Housing Law

.

It is not a question of blocking or torpedoing their approval, since they are in the mood for them to be approved, but rather of not giving in as they have been able to do on previous occasions or staging a withdrawal in time to avoid greater evils.

They do not want to give away flags or medals.

Elections loom.

We are less than four months away from the municipal and regional elections and one is also aware of doing everything possible to avoid tripping the interests of the socialist candidates.

Sánchez has already conveyed that he is annoyed by the attitude of his partners of appropriating the great measures and initiatives, showing that they impose themselves or bow to the PSOE and that nothing is ever or almost never thanks to the socialists.

That is why he has ordered his own that in this pre-campaign they must exhibit "socialist pride" and "explain one by one all the initiatives" that a government that is commanded by the PSOE has promoted.

hunting dogs

An example of all this is the Animal Welfare Law, which will be voted on tomorrow in Congress.

The norm is up in the air, with the partners facing each other because the PSOE achieved its purpose of excluding hunting dogs from the norm as well as animals used in professional activities, thanks to the votes of PP, PNV, Vox and the Canary Islands Coalition.

"It cannot be that today they continue to place themselves with people who occasionally mistreat animals," was the censorship of the PSOE by the Secretary of State for the 2030 Agenda,

Lilith Verstrynge

.

Days ago, she published a video, which she later deleted, that compared Sánchez with Santiago Abascal.

Socialist sources confirmed to this newspaper yesterday that their position to exclude hunting dogs remained firm and whether the law came out or fell was in the hands of Podemos.

Nor does it escape anyone that the hunting sector is an important voting niche in many regions.

With the Housing Law there were advances at the end of last year and the beginning of this one, but there is still a great obstacle facing the partners: the regulation of rental prices -the limit, to whom and how to implement it-, "the core of the negotiation» and where the PSOE does not finish accepting the purple demands.

From the

Ministry of Transport

they trust to get the law out, but they admit that the law cannot have "legal cracks", that it must be safeguarded from possible judicial resources and that it has to "respect the powers of the autonomous communities."

That's why they measure their decisions.

Regarding the

gag law

, there was also an acceleration that has now led to stagnation.

Parties like Bildu already speak of a "miracle" so that the norm does not decline in commission.

Conflicting positions of the PSOE with its partners regarding the use of rubber balls, administrative sanctions for disobedience and lack of respect for agents or hot returns.

The PSOE defends that it has agreed to fifty amendments and that it has already given up what it could.

That meeting more demands would break the balance between the work of the Security Forces and the right of the protesters.

And as a backdrop, not to oppose the police sector now.
