Selective Widows

December 12 2018 (09:58 WET)

Today, Coalición and PP dressed in black. They did so to join the "mourning" with which some workers came to protest at the plenary session. Only the sardine was missing to think they were saying goodbye to the carnival.

But no, there was no sardine and the carnival was neither beginning nor ending. It was just one more episode of the permanent carnival that has Astrid Pérez as queen of the party and Coalición as a troupe.

I cannot fail to point out my respect, as well as my disagreement, with the protest of the City Council workers. They are within their rights and I cannot fail to recognize that without being right, they have reasons.

What seems unserious to me, and above all lacking in credibility, is the little number of the widows sitting at the plenary table.

If the Popular Party took the workers seriously, it should dress in strict black all year round, at least until the rights that it cut off during the government of Mariano Rajoy are recovered, perhaps the cruelest that is remembered and that made cuts its hallmark.

If Coalición took public employees seriously, it would not allow the persecutions of Pedro San Ginés or the artificial and interested conflict provoked in the Centers by the sorcerer's apprentice, Echedey Eugenio.

PP and CC, CC and PP, accumulate a history of systematic mistreatment of public employees that deprives the masquerade they starred in the last plenary session of all credibility.

They have shown that they are going as widows, yes, but selective ones. The PP and Coalición are interested in public employees when they can use them as a weapon against the PSOE. They will never dress in black when they have the power and exercise it in the brutal way to which they have unfortunately accustomed us.

By the way, will Astrid and her troupe dress as widows to support the workers of Tías in their conflict with Pancho Hernández?
