The co-spokesperson of Podemos, Javier Sánchez Serna, took stock this Saturday of what has happened in recent days and has criticized that the Government is disappointing the progressive electorate by being solely focused on a "logical survival" that leads it to speak only of " amnesty and now corruption" instead of putting a "courageous social agenda" on the table.
In statements to the RNE Parliament program, the purple deputy in the Mixed Group has blamed the Executive for its lack of initiative towards the right and opposing social advances. And when asked about Thursday's disapproval of the Minister of the Interior, Fernando Grande Marlaska, he justified that the formation of Ione Belarra has been "coherent" with his abstention as he cannot be next to someone who behaves as "if he were a minister of the PP".
A few days before the processing of the amnesty law once again marks the national agenda, Serna has insisted that "the problem is that there is a supposedly progressive government that has been talking about amnesty for six months and that is now supposedly going to pass another six months talking about corruption. I believe this is not what progressive citizens voted for and, therefore, the PSOE would have to rethink many of its priorities," he noted.
In this way, Sánchez Serna has warned that without a "brave" transformation agenda and with a drift of limiting itself to going "tran tran to see if it lasts a year or two with a logic of survival", it will be difficult for the current Executive "don't end up opening the doors" of Moncloa to PP and Vox.
In his opinion, this paralysis that he detects in the Government is due to the fact that the president, Pedro Sánchez, "got out of the way" of Podemos, which was the partner that "made noise, made him uncomfortable and forced him to go beyond what which the PSOE traditionally goes".
Questioned about what Sumar should do to try to move the socialists to more ambitious positions, the purple leader has limited himself to saying that the formation led by Yolanda Díaz will have to act as it considers, but it is evident that in the previous legislature Unidas Podemos He was a "demanding" partner who "set the course" for the socialists. However, he has stated that it is evident that now "there is a different tone."
On the other hand, and regarding the negotiation of the future General State Budgets (PGE), Sánchez Serna has stated that the PSOE has not contacted its party nor does it know the general lines of the future public accounts. Consequently, Podemos needs to know this general orientation to decide on its eventual support, although it has guaranteed that its vote will be conditional on progress in social rights.
