El Gobierno de Pedro Sánchez On Tuesday, he used unseemly cynicism when he tried to forcefully tie the revaluation of pensions to the prorogation of the welfare shield, which criminally protects the cost of living.
The result of the summary decree of the Congress of Representatives (by 178 votes against and 171 in favor) is not a triumph of political irresponsibility, as it claims to create justice, but rather an act of democratic courage in the face of a chant of previously unforeseeable proportions.
Because that’s what the government has committed: chanting.
Pedro Sánchez He deliberately mixed two incompatible hints. A legitimate social derecho, revaluation of pensions, with a measure that transfers respect to private property in a safe place.
For this, Sánchez obliged the opposition MPs to vote among the Jubilados or bless the criminal justice of life.
Socialists will claim that they are capable of doing anything. These measures protect vulnerable families without changing the legal order.
But reality is harsh. According to their public authorities, enforcement has grown exponentially since the first Social Security Shield was passed in 2020, highlighted by the protections the government provides to criminals.
Not if it’s a marginal issue. It represents tens of thousands of usurped lives with legitimate owners that you cannot get your property back after years of endless court proceedings.
What is truly immoral is that the government implemented this decree knowing full well that its victims would rejoice. Many of those retirees who have worked for decades to keep a living in their property, who have bought it with effort, and who now come as prosperity, not just in property but in measure.
Is it not a particularly subtle cruelty to try to buy the silence of these jubilants with the promise of a paltry appreciation, while they are deprived of the legal protection of their homes, of much greater value?
PP demonstrated sobriety on the way to this street. Alberto Núñez Feijóo everything is obvious. The government wanted mayors to be able to choose between pension and housing.
The popular answer has been discontinued: they have everything behind them.
And PP is right. Because pension revaluation should not be a good thing, a legislative contract that the executive branch can trade in exchange for impunity for criminals who usurp their lives.
The draft law, which PP registered last November, which guarantees the automatic update of pensions, even in the event of an assumed prorogation, Show that there is a clear and honest way to solve this problem.
The government could present an exclusive regulation with revaluation today. Nada stops him. But he won’t have one, because his goal is not to guarantee pensions, but to secure employment.
The quienes defienden of the decree claim that the illegal okupación is insignificant compared to the problem of access to life. It is radically untrue. Because okupación is exactly one of the factors with the greatest weight in the destruction of the real estate market in Spain.
However, if this were true, the government would be entitled to criminally protect those who commit crimes.
If you have a life problem, we propose useful solutions: public housing, tax credits for housing, legal protection of owners, immediate eviction of property, building incentives, land clearance, market liberalization.
But no impunity is hidden. No crime. Not singing: pension in exchange for crime.
The actress once again demonstrated her taste for historical theatricality, in a controlled pantomime and applauded the activist for health with her performances. who shouted simple signs from an invited stand.
But this applause rings hollow when it is discovered that the government is willing to sacrifice the real rights of thousands of pensioners in exchange for a pension that only benefits those who work illegally.
Congress acted responsibly. He rechazado un blackmail.
Now it’s up to Gobierno to choose. Either present a decree with only the revaluation of pensions, or continue the search for mayor de circumstancias.
But you won’t be able to use Jubilados as change.
