Why It Matters
The Madrid Assembly debated the impact and participation of the recently called general strike, confronting the positions of the regional Government and the opposition parties.
"The left breaks everything." The "unmitigated failure" of the general strike marked this Thursday the plenary session of the Madrid Assembly, where despite the demands launched by the left, both the Popular Party and Vox squeezed the data of low participation to, as if it were a boomerang, return against the Government of Pedro Sánchez the call for a strike that only responded to "political tactics" and not to the demands of the workers.
In fact, Isabel Díaz Ayuso considers that the collapse of the strike proves that Sánchez has "discredited and dismantled" the right to protest, in one more step of what Sol calls "the woodworm strategy" to erode the rule of law in Spain day by day.
"Everything that Sanchismo touches, it scraps. The strike has been discredited, like the unions," reproached the president of the Community of Madrid in response to the PSOE and Más Madrid, who went to the regional chamber calling Wednesday's strike a success and predicting that the strength exhibited in the last few hours in the streets will be reflected on November 29 at the polls to keep the left in the Government.
"They are pure fantasy," Ayuso, who has been denouncing the direct link, especially since Sánchez arrived in Moncloa, between the left and the unions, responded ironically: "They are a union mafia that has received 600 million more since Sánchez governed. Yesterday they tried to help the beloved leader," defined the Madrid leader during the parliamentary control session.
Hence, now, Ayuso relates the low follow-up of the protest with this "colonization" of the left of unions that, far from representing the workers, he said, come to the rescue of the Government just two days after Sánchez calls elections: "Starting on November 29, another strike, but eternal, for the socialists," he concluded.
