A speech of reaffirmation and strength. This is what the President of the Government wanted to show this Tuesday, Pedro Sanchezat the UGT Confederal Congress held in Barcelona. The socialist leader has shown himself convinced of government stability and has left a clear message: “We beat the hoaxes in 2023 and we will beat them again in 2027 with a progressive project of social progress and conquests,” he proclaimed.
“We are on the right side of history,” Sánchez also highlighted, who had some words of gratitude for Pepe Alvarezgeneral secretary of UGT who will be officially re-elected this Thursday. During his presentation, the leader of the Executive stressed that there are only two ways to confront crises: “Either a slow recovery with cuts or a quick one with social justice.”
For Sánchez, during these six years the political and union left They have dismantled “all the mantras of neoliberalism”. “We must be proud of everything we have achieved, despite the noise, infamy and defamation and everything that the right wants to say, whose only political project is hoaxes and lies,” he stated.
Sánchez has also referred to the situation in the Valencian Country after DANA. At this point he has shown his “rejection of that extreme right that denies scientific evidence and that other right that acts as if the climate emergency did not exist.” “The great lesson of Valencia is that there is a more serious danger than the climate emergency and it is the denialist governments that, by action or omission, deny scientific evidence,” he noted.
On the other hand, Sánchez has made an appeal to the employers regarding the reduction of working hours despite the fact that the Dialogue Table was closed a few days ago. “We have approved the labor reform but we still have to reduce the working day. I ask the employers to sit down with the unions and the Government to have this law in place this term,” he stated.
Álvarez intervened before Sánchez, who was full of praise for the Government. “You are a president who meets the workers. We have done a lot in a short time, you are a president of your word and trustworthy. And surely that’s why some of the things that happen happen,” he stated.
The UGT leader has highlighted the “social transformations” carried out such as labor reform, social policies, pensions and “bringing into line those who earn a lot and do not pay taxes.” “We know that It has a cost. And we have to be fully aware that there is a new way of doing politics. Our Portuguese friends have suffered it and we have to defend this Government, which is democratic, legitimate and is the one that has to continue working to achieve the programmatic objectives that we have voted for,” he commented.
