With the leader of Sumar herself, Yolanda Díaz, at the presentation of a book - which she abandoned in the race -, or the Minister of Health and leader of Más Madrid, Mónica García, incommunicado at first having taken a plane shortly before , the short notice with which the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, communicated to his coalition partner his willingness to open a period of reflection to decide whether or not to continue at the head of the Executive, made the joint response of the confederal space difficult.
But once the initial confusion was overcome, and after the conversations held by Díaz both with Sánchez and with the rest of the vice presidents of the Executive, the plurinational group has taken the floor to "defend democracy and the legitimacy of the Government."
The first phase began last night via Twitter. And after Díaz's first message, all the others followed. From the national officials of the formation to the spokespersons of the coalition formations, the denunciation of lawfare and the commitment to stop the reactionary offensive deployed with false complaints and unfounded accusations amplified by "pseudo-journalistic pamphlets." And the second was launched this Thursday, multiplying the presence of its leaders on TV and radio.
The first to speak this morning was the Minister of Culture, Ernest Urtasun, who asked the progressive forces "to be more united than ever." Sumar's national spokesperson has supported the theory that "the reactionaries and the extreme right have been on a brutal offensive for a long time", and has appealed to the "firmness" that progressive governments must show to "continue fighting the political battle and that it does not happen as in the accusations against the former vice president of the Valencian Generalitat Mónica Oltra, which were finally proven to be false even though they caused her resignation.
The witness has been taken by the parliamentary spokesperson, Íñigo Errejón, for Errejón, establishing as a framework that what is really at stake is whether a progressive coalition government can govern or "if power can only systematically belong to them by inheritance." . In the strategy of the right "anything goes", from the "harassment and demolition from the State", of economic power, to avoid leftist governments, especially in the current case with a coalition Executive that promotes social transformations for the country , he has pointed out on different radio stations.
The Minister of Social Rights, Pablo Bustinduy, also expressed himself along these lines last night, appealing to a political and social conspiracy to not be intimidated by "operations that only seek to remove from power what the Spanish people voted for."
