A week after the public shock in the coalition of government on account of fiscal policy to receptors of the minimum interprofessional salary, nothing or almost moved. Although both parties have wanted to stage that the blood is far from reaching the river, with relaxed images of Yolanda Díaz with Pedro Sánchez last week in the plenary and with María Jesús Montero this Monday during the presentation of a documentary, the pulse between the Treasury And work remains intact: the socialists do not yield for now in their decision that the SMI tributes for the first time in the IRPF; and add remains firm in his intention to knock down that measure in Congress.
The voices within the PSOE that advocate finding an agreed exit to the mess generated with a measure of which Pedro Sánchez’s flag has not yet found enough echo to get unlocking. And that’s why the pulse continues. From doors inwards they are convinced in the socialist part of the Executive that Yolanda Díaz will not be able to keep the parliamentary pulse until the end and that, therefore, there will be no clash. And they remain importance to a conflict that are sure that you will barely travel in a few weeks.
“What will remain is that we climb the SMI, not like the right. It is true that there is a disagreement, but it is not so serious either. Hacienda has made a decision based on the work of its technicians and the government, of course, it makes it its own ”, valued a high position of Moncloa on Tuesday asked about it.
Although the teams of Yolanda Díaz and María Jesús Montero have maintained some informal contact during the last week, according to the sources consulted aware of these conversations there was no progress. Something that, in any case, does not rule out in the PSOE that may occur at any time at the heat of calls to the consensus they launch, for example, the UGT unions and workers’ commissions.
Internal criticisms in Ferraz to the management of this case set an example, in fact, the critical position of the unions with the Treasury for the lack of agreement and dialogue on this issue. And they warn that the gesture by María Jesús Montero that helps to find the exit to the clash must arrive “as soon as possible”, mainly in the face of the perspectives of Montero itself in Andalusia. This weekend, without going any further, Yolanda Díaz will participate in the Andalusian Congress of the UGT, while the Minister of Finance will be officially ratified as General Secretary of the Andalusian Socialists on Sunday with the presence of Pedro Sánchez, which will support it in Granada .
It does not seem to add your pulse in this clash either. Since this controversy charged a public care, those of Yolanda Díaz are aware that they have some advantage from the point of view of public opinion, but they are also convinced of their arguments.
“It is a fight that is worth it, that we are going to give. We have said that we are willing to fix it within the Government, especially because I believe that in politics there is one thing that should not be done that is enroll when one has the socially lost debate and is isolated in Congress, ”said the Minister of Culture and Coalition spokesman, Ernest Urtasun, in a national radio interview. And then he added: “It is a fight that we want and we will give because we believe it is socially fair.”
“We are going to get to the end,” said the parliamentary spokeswoman Verónica Martínez, at a press conference in Congress, asked about whether to add is willing to maintain the proposal of law they registered a week ago to return the IRPF exemption to those who charge the minimum wage.
Precisely, this Tuesday the Congress table accepted the first procedure so that both that law and those presented by the PP and we can advance their parliamentary path. All propositions are sought in the same, although they are technically different and the one that has presented the formation of Alberto Núñez Feijóo contains more elements that go beyond that modification.
Now the government has 30 business days to raise a veto. It can be done by virtue of article 134 of the Constitution, which allows it when a legislative initiative modifies the expenditure, income or budget credits. If I did, the Congress table could still raise the veto and facilitate its processing, although to add it would have to pay the first toll to gather its votes to the PP.
Plurinational Group Sources say that they will have no problem making the case even if they insist that the priority is to reach an agreement within the government to avoid reaching a situation like that. But if that agreement is not given, Yolanda Díaz’s coalition is convinced of the steps that must be taken to legislatively modify the decision of the Treasury. Something that, underline, provokes a wide parliamentary support.
If these initiatives end up reaching the plenary, the parliamentary quota of the groups will take into play. Depending on how late the government in responding, the turn to present its propositions could correspond to the PP, to add or, more difficult, we can for the mixed group. Thus, the plurinational group could be forced to decide first if it supports a Feijóo proposal to change a government decision before being able to carry its own initiative.
“We are going to get to the end, so we have submitted a proposition of law. It is not a threat to anyone. It is to keep our position in writing. We are going to get to the end so that the SMI does not pay tribute, ”Martínez resulted this Wednesday at the press conference.
While the positions are still found, both parties publicly give air to the debate with arguments to defend their position. In RNE, Urtasun came up to the accusations by the PSOE that Yolanda Díaz knew that the SMI would be taxed because this was reflected in the report of the work experts. “What may have done some year is a simulation of what would happen, but never recommends a measure or another in taxation because that always corresponds to the Treasury,” he explained.
And then he defended that, if the socialist wing imposes his criteria, SMI’s perceptors would be taxing a marginal type of 42%, “the same one that applies to the increase in an income greater than 60,000 euros.” “We have to ask ourselves if this is socially fair,” he said.
Hours later, he received the answer from Congress. “Some play and say that 41% will take away, it is not so,” the socialist spokesman, Patxi López, who specified that, of the receptors, 80% will not be taxed. “And the one who will do it in 6.1% of the entire salary,” he added. “Let’s do more pedagogy and less demagogy,” he complained.
Just a few minutes later, the spokeswoman to add. “Fiscal pedagogy translates into that a supermarket replanting pays what does not pay a speculator with 10 floors. We cannot agree with that. Fiscal pedagogy is the one that determines that IRPF is the key instrument to articulate the redistribution of wealth and that is that they pay more electricity and less the lowest income, ”he reproached López.
Although the pulse continues, most of the voices of either side of the coalition are convinced that there will be white smoking sooner rather than later. And that it will be promoted, once again, by a Solomonic decision of the President of the Government.
