Light in the trench of Podemos, article by Emma Riverola

paul churches represents the left that feels comfortable in the trench. That he shoots against the enemy and against those who dare to leave the ranks. That he never renounces revolutionary songs and considers hesitation treason. The ideology impregnates the pupils of Iglesias, this is how the world sees. For this reason, he opted to stir up fear of Vox in the regional elections in Madrid. The ogre! he shouted. He did not understand that, at that time, citizens preferred to have a beer on a terrace than dig a trench.

Without a seat, but with a seat in the gatherings, Iglesias is still in the race. Pointing out hesitations, scrutinizing peers. And there it is Yolanda Diazthe policy that has forged its leadership in forcefulness, knowledge and understanding, capable of join efforts and assume resignations. She knows how to read the street beyond the lenses of her eyes. It is the indispensable piece to achieve a majority of the left and, unlike Iglesias, it can add the female vote. That vote accustomed to dealing in a world inhabited by ogres of different coats. Díaz has baptized his project as ‘Sumar’. Iglesias abandoned politics stating that he subtracted more than he added. May the lucidity of his diagnosis enlighten him in the trench.
