Beyond the constant battle within the coalition government, there is a concern that already underlies the left. And it is if the time comes, that is, the general elections, the space to the left of the PSOE will be able to endure enough and if whoever represents will have enough support to contribute to a majority of the left. This not only occupies the socialist wing of the Government, where they need the minority party to resist new polls, but it is also a matter that today begins to disturb some of the parties that make up the coalition to add in Congress and in the government.
In this environment is where Yolanda Díaz’s leadership and continuity begins. The recomposition of the left to recover a voter floor that exceeds 15 percent is the obsession to achieve and, today, there are voices that already speak of the need for the vice president to take a step back in the face of the next general . This request is motivated in the security that then it would be more feasible for the different leftist options to be presented under the same acronyms.
Matches consulted by this newspaper begin to expose their diagnoses about the situation that the left is going through or about the experience of the alliance and preferences for the future. “When it is not contributed, nothing happens and nothing happens,” is the reflection that one of the coalition matches does.
They point to the lack of enthusiasm that there are currently between the leftist electorate with her as a reference, and begin to verbalize both in public and private the urgency of replacement for the next elections. The purple, as this newspaper has already published this week, demand that Pedro Sánchez integrate in their lists to Yolanda Díaz as a condition to attend with IU, more Madrid or those common to the next generals.
In another of the acronym that integrates adding, they point out the lack of steps towards the “catharsis” of the left that, in theory, meant the “resignation” of Díaz as a leader of adding after European elections. While Diaz if he admitted the reorganization of the parliamentary group to give more power to all parties of the coalition, which to add up to movement is a kind of recognition that they are no longer the majority space. This is a gesture valued by the coaligates, but insufficient for an upcoming alliance. Among these games it was already notified from the first moment that adding was no longer the “agglutinator” match on the left.
The continuous battles for power, or the pulses that continue to be maintained with Podemos, for example, are some of the points that are indicated and loaded on the Diaz errors account. A leadership that has a long time wear. “She has lost her halo,” says one of the parties that support her in the government and in Congress. It was in June 2022 when the minister took a step forward as “leader.” Then he announced an listening process that was delayed in time for the Ukraine War and that even began to harm his leadership when he verified a “gas effect.” It would be before the general elections of 2023, when his figure began to deteriorate definitively by the open pulse with Podemos after the veto to Irene Montero was presented in the electoral lists.
Yolanda Díaz herself is aware of her brand’s wear. Also in their surroundings, where, after the European ones, they have tried to stop this problem by the route to unlink it from the direct relationship with the parties. She herself has recently recognized him in an interview in “More than one” in Onda Zero, where she granted that she is not the “most appropriate” person to lead political responsibilities. «I have some qualities and not others. I have never liked organic responsibilities, it is not what I know how to do or I am the right person. I like to define public policies, ”he reflected then. In that, in her work as Minister, all the sources consulted continue to consider it the “best minister of labor”.
That same day he admitted that he should value his political future and decide whether or not he will present as a candidate for the next general elections. In your team it is requested to pay attention to these words, which they also understand as their own gesture aimed at giving a new opportunity to this space. Although in their environment they deny any type of leadership loss and continue to ensure that it is an “electoral asset.”
