Sánchez diseña su propia 'kale borroka' para el día después

Se acuerdan de alguna película en la que el protagonista abandona su morada por un túnel excavado en el suelo no sin antes conectar algunas bombas que estallarán cuando llegue el enemigo? Estas elecciones que ha convocado Pedro Sánchez, con el trasfondo de los dos decretos que quiere aprobar en la Diputación Permanente, siguen ese mismo guión. Leer

Original Spanish Read in English

Pedro Sánchez, the Spanish Prime Minister, has unveiled his own version of the controversial "kale borroka" laws to take effect the following day. This aligns with his plans to pass two decrees through the Permanent Deputation, a move that nine out of ten economists warn could negatively impact thousands of Spaniards struggling with rental costs, particularly vulnerable renters.

Sánchez appears indifferent to these potential consequences, preferring to focus on the narrative of protecting vulnerable individuals, reminiscent of Franco's tactics against the Perfidious Albion.

The real objective is to rally voters against an imaginary enemy, similar to the way he portrayed the "Buitre Funds" as a threat, when in fact it is detrimental to all renters. Sánchez's strategy is reminiscent of a blockbuster film targeting the most gullible audience, with little success given his eight years in power where he could have provided public housing but chose not to.

The Permanent Deputation's approval of the decrees, ostensibly contrary to the Parliament's will, signifies another pitfall in Sánchez's ranking of indignities since assuming power. From amnesties to suppress the crime of sedition, pervert the composition of the Constitutional Court, and now, enacting laws through decrees, the Prime Minister's actions are increasingly reminiscent of an insidious plot.

The question remains: will the Permanent Deputation's approval of these decrees remain unchanged or be subtly altered to appear as new legislation? Regardless, Sánchez's strategy is to plant a bomb that will detonate against the incoming government, where he will be held accountable for the legacy he leaves behind - skyrocketing rents, miserable salaries, and a politically poisoned climate.
