This week the political course is closed. Last plenary in the Congress of Deputies. And even though the institutional calendar marks other deadlines, Spanish politics has entered a phase that behaves like a long epilogue. No one already cares about the General State Budgets of next yearFor example. In the halls of the congress and in the reserved of the restaurants, where the most reliable information is exchanged, The atmosphere is farewelleither month before or month later, to enter the campaign of general elections.
The PNV has begun to make dates. For Basque nationalists, March 2026 is the border they consider reasonable to stop supporting a government president who, just as other allies think, see how a “Political body” Without ability to recover. Another thing is what this situation wants to stretch, and how the PSOE is when they become aware that they have to enter another phase. The relief solution, as Mariano Rajoy also raised before the motion of censure, see her the simplest, but, after first, unfeasible. The PSOE is a chicken coop, there is no clear alternative, and the internal war is already open, as they comment on the members of the partners.
March 26 is a reasonable date for Allies can take distance from a toxic climate in order to go in conditions to important municipal elections. In Euskadi, municipal and foral. The goal is not to drag the mud until when it is no longer possible to clean the shoes.
Public life is, for weeks, a national gathering on the novelties that will explode. Not only to the PSOE, although the weight falls mainly on his shoulders, but also on the PP. That if this week there will be important leaks of the Aldama environment, that if before September the report that lay to Minister Torres for the “Hydrocarbons Case” will arrive, which if the heritage of Cerdán and news about the money of Ábalos falls. And now, From the socialist environment, they also add expectation about the García Amador case And the appearance of alleged false invoices that can bitter autumn not only to the Madrid president, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, but also Alberto Núñez Feijóo, for the new names that are supposed to go out to the showcase of corruption.
As the PSOE is also talking about these alleged information with their allies, to try to convince them that things that will balance the balance will balance, and that they should not stop supporting Sanchez, it should be noted that the partners have the capacity to judge the impact of what they have told them. And they say it will be “fat”, but not so much as to turn the inertia that has made Sanchez a politician who is already out of play.
To the PP, what worries him now is the “Montoro case.” Apparently, everything plays in his favor, so much that in his wishes they begin to consider the possibility that the PSOE falls below the hundred seats. The deterioration of the government is evident, the noise of corruption, the forecast of an exhausted legislature … but the shadow of the long stage of Rajoy is coming and the fear that some buried scandals will appear again as judicial instructions advance. The Montoro case can be “just a first warning.” The current popular leader was neither in Madrid with Rajoy’s government, nor knew or participated, but in Genoa they have already learned that the battle is not measured in exemplarity, but in whom he is able to get the greatest wear of the rival.
Of course, neither the PSOE nor the PP is escaped that, in this permanent battlefield, There is an actor who feeds regularly: Vox. Abascal formation has also had to manage internal and territorial controversies, but, at least according to surveys, they have not been a problem that would harm them in their electoral reputation, rather on the contrary. A scenario in which they can play with the mantra that they are the only alternative to a rotten system is a springboard that in no case will miss. The data does not indicate a meteoric growth, but there is a long way to go and Vox has also shown that it is well managed to place the most effective traps to the PP, when they sound urns drums, to weaken them in front of the PSOE.
Today, the parties do not discuss laws or negotiate budgets, they only think about what the following filtration will be.
