The leader of Sumar, Yolanda Díaz, criticized this Sunday that the PSOE claims to be “left-handed” and calls for voting “against the right and the far right” on June 9, while the socialists “govern with the PP in Europe.” .
At an event in Seville, in which the head of the party's list for the European elections, Estrella Galán, also participated; the federal coordinator of Izquierda Unida, Antonio Maíllo; the IU Member of the European Parliament and Sumar candidate for the European elections, Manu Pineda, and the deputy spokesperson of Por Andalucía, Esperanza Gómez, Díaz He has criticized the PSOE's definition of itself as 'left-handed'.but then the Socialists want to 'cut taxes on electricity companies' and are not committed to 'repealing the gag law'.
“They are left-handed, but they don't want to increase the Iprem (Multiple Effects Public Income Indicator). They are left-handed, but Comrade Bustinduy has worked hard to impose a historic sanction on the airlines for blatant abuses in Spain,” the Sumar leader said.
In this context, Díaz has emphasized that “it is crucial” that their training “has the power to do what we are already doing in our country”, to “continue to increase the interprofessional minimum wage”, and to “reduce rental prices ”. and that housing is a right in Spain.”
Two ways to do politics in Europe
Looking ahead to 9J, Díaz has predicted that “we are very close to doing something great”, namely “defeating” the right again, after the general election on July 23, and has warned that they will face each other. in the elections, the Europeans are against 'a path that converges in the international of hatred'. “It is the hatred that emanates from Milei and shakes hands with Meloni, Le Pen, Orban, Abascal and Feijóo,” he noted.
“The politics of hate is the politics that does not solve the problems of citizens, that aims to mobilize fear so that you hold back and do not vote. It is the policy that does not solve any problem,” said the leader of Sumar, pointing out that unlike this model, they defend the Europe of “human rights and enlightenment”. In particular, the “international of social Europe that wins labor rights, of good people from whom we want Europe to change from within, so that, for example, some workers do not compete with others.”
Díaz has also said that “we do not want a foreign policy dependent on the United States, nor a warlike Europe”, and in turn has denounced direct returns and an asylum treaty “that is barbaric” and a “violation of human rights”. “people”. “We want the best country represented in Aquarius,” the vice president claimed.
Reduce working hours without reducing salary
The leader of Sumar has assured that “the time has come to give people time to live” with the shortening of the working day “without reducing salaries.” According to Díaz, the shortening of the working day is the measure that will bring “a real change in our country,” along with a real-time control “so that the Labor Inspectorate knows in real time how many hours we work.”
With this initiative, labor abuse in our country will be over, he said.
Sumar's leader has stressed the importance of voting for Sumar in the next 9-J because “we need the strength to continue winning rights” for citizens. The government's second vice president has asked for “democratic strength” to continue raising the SMI or lowering the IPREM, to which she has assured that the first vice president, the socialist María Jesús Montero, is.
To avoid these situations, according to the head of the Sumar list in the European Parliament, Estrella Galán, we must vote for this political formation that is in the institutions “to improve and generate changes in society”.
Galán has assured that Andalusia was the key for Spain to make progress in the last general elections and that it will now be the key for Europe to avoid returning to “black and white television or closed cabinets.”
According to him, voting for Sumar contributes to improving working conditions, having a “green future” or ensuring, among other things, that “the culture is not silenced,” as happens in some institutions where the PP governs together with Vox.
Estrella Galán has justified Sumar's role in the executive branch by stating that if the formation is not there, “the government embraces the PP”. IU's federal coordinator, Antonio Maíllo, has also defended the importance of training in government, stating that “there will never be any cuts in labor policies” as long as Díaz is Minister of Labor.
Maíllo has asked for Sumar's support because “we do not want to return to the paying doctor”, whose beginnings in Andalusia he has blamed on the PSOE when it governed, “segregated education” or “to the closet”.
The IU federal coordinator has emphasized that making Europe means “a personal and civic commitment, of rolling up our sleeves, of leaving our comfort zone and making commitments at different levels.” In this sense, the federal coordinator of Izquierda Unida has called for “social intervention, for involvement in your family environment, in your work environment, in your friendships”, emphasizing that “there is no more mobilization or awareness than appealing to the mass mood'. to add the 9J”.
Maíllo has stated that “we do not want to return to the castes that have caused trauma for generations of gays, lesbians or transsexuals, nor to paying doctors or social segregation in education”, and has declared that it is time to “make Europe and to build hope.”
