Sumar has chosen to follow his own path that tries to emancipate himself from the fury of a Europe at war in which every political voice seems impregnated by the roar of the cannons and the roar of the harangue prior to the infantry charge. Vice-president Yolanda Díaz drenched Sumar's listening act in Sabadell with political laborism.
Taking into account the industrial and industrious identity of the town, the speeches that opened the event corresponded to workers and union representatives from precarious sectors for whom the labor reform has improved working conditions. Commerce, domestic workers, riders, and the chemical and metal industries were the voices chosen to precede Díaz in the use of the word. Received with the shout –already standardized– of “president”, the vice-president was placed from the first sentence as a representative of the working classes in the Council of Ministers, which earned her several interruptions of applause in the full capacity of the Fira de Sabadell. Also, a second attempt to break an act, after that of the animal rights activist who interrupted the event that Díaz shared in the morning with the mayor of Barcelona, Ada Colau, and the Minister of Consumer Affairs, Alberto Garzón.
Dedicated to capitalizing on the regulatory reforms promoted by her ministry, Díaz did not miss the opportunity to reproach Esquerra -without mentioning her- for her vote against the labor reform, and she did not evade reminding the delivery company Glovo -which mobilizes activists at each act de Díaz– who will have to comply with the so-called rider law: their workers are their workers, and not self-employed.
He announced the regulations that he has in the pipeline, such as the internship law – to prevent interns from charging for jobs fraudulently –, which he hopes to carry out this week, he said, and a new law against relocations that he will tackle, he explained, the practices of public looting and scorched earth so common during decades of deindustrialization.
She talked about the tax reform, the memory law, the housing law –she announced the battle–, colored her speech with the attributes of her project, which the panel behind her repeated –Dialeg,esperaça,il lusió–, and seasoned the whole with the always tasty vinaigrette of multinationality. Sponsored by Colau, Joan Mena, Jaume Asens and Jessica Albiach, among others, and by many union representatives, Díaz adjusted her rhetoric on a different wavelength to the political environment that sanctioned the time. Faced with the revived ghosts of the old conflicts that run through Europe, dragging their chains of blood, saliva and testosterone, Sumar, that is, Yolanda, wants to break through with a smiling, feminine face and a Labor accent. In a country in which politics, economy, communication and social networks have it today, hair on chest, with a fixed bayonet. We will see.
