Spanish and European politics are reaching a degree of surrealism that would seem excessive to Salvador Dal\u00ed and Federico Garc\u00eda Lorca.<\/p>\n
The PP called to concentrate the vote against S\u00e1nchez and now allies with him in Brussels<\/big><\/p>\n This Monday the news broke that The socialists Pedro S\u00e1nchez and the German Olaf Scholz will lead the negotiation of the distribution of the EU institutions<\/a> with the European People's Party<\/strong>. You have not read wrong: they are the same socialists and the same popular ones who behave like rivals in their respective countries, including Spain.<\/p>\n In fact, in the European elections the Spanish Popular Party called to concentrate the vote against S\u00e1nchez<\/a>, and now wants to negotiate an alliance with him in Brussels<\/strong>. It is a great deception to its voters but, it must be said, it is an announced deception: popular and socialists have been forming a \"Grand Coalition\" in the EU for years<\/a>.<\/p>\n S\u00e1nchez blackmails the PP in his desire to assault the Judiciary<\/big><\/p>\n To that first news we must add another: today S\u00e1nchez has launched blackmail against the PP<\/a>, threatening to assault the Judiciary if the PP does not serve it to him on a platter<\/strong>. To this threat he has added another directed against the media: a law whose purpose would be to impose greater transparency on them, something that sounds like a bad joke considering that Sanchez's government is the most opaque that we Spaniards have ever had<\/strong> in all the years we have had democracy.<\/p>\n In yet another display of cynicism, S\u00e1nchez has justified this attack on judges and the media by appealing to \"democratic quality\"<\/strong>, all while his party and his personal circle are shaken by corruption scandals for which he has not wanted to offer a single explanation<\/a>. Under these conditions, seeing S\u00e1nchez establishing himself as the standard bearer of \"democratic quality\" is as grotesque as seeing Kim Jong-un boasting of tolerance.<\/strong><\/p>\n Is this how the PP wants us to trust European institutions?<\/big><\/p>\n In view of these facts, the question that should be asked is the one I put in the title of this article: will the Popular Party ally in Brussels with the socialists who blackmail it in Spain?<\/strong> And I could add Another question: what the PP wants is for us to trust the European institutions while they share them with socialists who trample on the rule of law and who are immersed in political corruption up to their heads? And a third question: does the PP seriously believe that Ursula von der Leyen is going to stop S\u00e1nchez's coup against the rule of law, while it negotiates her re-election with S\u00e1nchez?<\/strong> What has been said: even the most famous surrealist I would feel that this whole show is already excessively surreal.<\/p>\n ---<\/p>\n
