Bilbao (EFE) a problem”.
Sánchez has participated this Saturday in Bilbao in the act called by the Basque socialists in memory and tribute to the former leader of the PSE-EE and Minister of the Interior of the Basque Government with the lehendakari Patxi López, Rodolfo Ares, who died last January.
In his speech, the Chief Executive spoke of the fact that the work of socialism is to work for the “dignity” of people, and in this sense he cited the first Democratic Housing Law in Spain.
“This law is going to transform a huge problem especially for young people in this country,” he said.
Sánchez already described yesterday as “historic” the agreement reached this Friday between the coalition government of PSOE and Unidas Podemos with ERC and Eh Bildu that will allow the approval of “the first law on the right to housing in our democracy.”
The new housing law, an electoral asset
For their part, Socialist candidates and mayors for the municipal elections on May 28 have highlighted the importance of the Housing Law as an electoral asset and have wondered “how the PP is going to explain” its position contrary to the new norm.
This was stated by the PSOE candidate for Mayor of Madrid, Reyes Maroto, the Mayor of Vigo, Abel Caballero, the Socialist candidate for Mayor of Barcelona, Jaume Collboni, the Mayor of Valladolid, Óscar Puente, and the General Secretary of the Andalusian PSOE, Juan Espadas, speaking to the media upon his arrival at the Municipal Conference of the party that is being held this weekend at the City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia.
“We lack a coalition culture”
Asked about the possibilities of the left in the elections after the disagreements between the parties of the coalition of the Government of Spain, the mayor of Valladolid, Óscar Puente, has considered that “in the end, the citizens rearrange their options and punish those who In an obvious way, they are playing for something other than the common interest”.
“We lack a coalition culture in this country,” he lamented, adding that all coalitions have “some kind of noise” and if this has not occurred in Spain, it has been “because only monocolor governments have lived, while others European countries have been accustomed to it for many years.
For Puente, however, “above the noise, the important thing is the progress agenda”, and he has concluded that “we must keep the positive, which has been a lot”.
