Sánchez advances that on Tuesday he raises the minimum wage and asks the employer for responsibility

“You cannot be demanding salary sacrifices from those below while there is a feast for those above,” Sánchez stressed in an act in Malaga together with the general secretary of the PSOE in Andalusia, Juan Espadas, and the socialist candidate for mayor of Malaga , Dani Pérez, which was attended by some 1,500 people, according to party data.

According to the chief executive, “in this country there can be no double yardstick, one for the majority of ordinary people and the other for the elitist minority” and he has warned that “here there will be no funnel law, too wide for the majority and too narrow for the minority”.

The president denied that in Spain there is an oversized State and that citizens live beyond their means and has explained that what is happening in the last 15 years is the “erosion” of the middle and working class, since while prices They have risen in that period by 16-17%, wages have done so by 10%.

“In other words, purchasing power has been lost”, Sánchez stressed, who has reiterated his commitment from four years ago to achieve “60% of the average wage as the interprofessional minimum wage”, which, he stressed, will be fulfilled in the next Council of Ministers.

And he has warned that “now what is needed is for employers to sit down with workers to raise wages.”

Sánchez has thus claimed, in the face of the neoliberalism of the PP and the decline of rights, socialist policies and their defense of rights, because, although it cost them “a lot” to unlock the Constitutional Court, with its first decision, on abortion, “Women win and the right loses”

He has also highlighted that “Spain is the main economy in Europe that is growing the most and we have the highest employment rate in the last 15 years”, which is due, in his opinion, not only to the contribution of workers and employers, but also to the success of its economic policies.

“In the PP they get nervous when I say this and say ‘el sanchismo’. They also called Felipismo felipismo, Zapatero zapaterismo and me sanchismo. No, it’s called socialism, make no mistake, ”he stressed.

The EMU, a “pride”

During his speech, Sánchez expressed, on behalf of the Spanish people, his “immense solidarity” with the victims of the earthquake in Turkey and Syria, and highlighted his “pride” for the work of the Military Emergency Unit (UME).

He has taken advantage of this moment to “make a bit of homeland”, since it was the socialist José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero who promoted this unit, which “was disqualified by the right saying that it was a pharaonic whim”.

And it is that, for the leader of the PSOE, the PP is exclusively dedicated to discrediting and making noise so as not to reveal its “hidden agenda” of privatizations and cuts aimed at “doing business with a few to the detriment of the majority.”
