Renewal of the TC: blackmail and injury, article by Marçal Sintes

And finally the time comes to renew the Constitutional Court and Pablo Casado goes and throws on the table the names of two real pearls: Enrique Arnaldo and Concepción Espejel. The first, a kind of lawyer for all PP politicians, related, among others, to Jaume Matas and Ignacio González, both convicted of corruption. Thanks to the PP, Arnaldo was climbing in his career, just like Espejel. This, a very close friend of the former secretary general of the PP María Dolores de Cospedal, had to be removed from the ‘Gürtel case’ due to her links with the popular ones.

Casado could have chosen other names, since right-wing (and far-right) judges are a multitude, but he decided not to. He precisely chose Arnaldo and Espejel, of whom everyone knows his conchabanza with the PP. Take it or leave it. A provocation, a blackmail and a humiliation, all at the same time. Pedro Sánchez accepted. The president applied the cold doctrine of the lesser evil. He must have feared that if he did not swallow the other agreed renovations, they could go to hell, as well as the pending negotiations on the General Council of the Judiciary. On top of that, he must have misled each other, they will accuse me of being the one who plays dirty.

Casado and his colleagues from the PP have been crushing the public for many months with the sacred independence that must adorn the powers of the State, while boycotting the renewal of a handful of organs. As if that were not enough, they have been accusing the Government of wanting to boss justice around and repeating the demagogic recipe: “The judges must choose the judges & rdquor ;. Casado even had the tough face of sentencing, once the misdeed was consummated: “The PP’s demand to advance in depoliticization has been fulfilled & rdquor ;.

It is normal for a handful of deputies from the government coalition to break discipline and refrain from whitewashing the vote with their vote. sultry bum. What we do not know is whether, when he accepted Casado’s blackmail, Sánchez remembered to also weigh the grievance, yet another, that they inflicted on the already greatly diminished reputation of the institutions.
