Overview

• Junts leaders signaled a potential 'new cycle' after failed talks with PSOE in Brussels, vowing to withhold support unless pending pledges on EU status for Catalan and an immigration powers transfer advance.
• Podemos confirmed it will vote against the Junts–PSOE immigration transfer bill on Tuesday, ensuring the measure fails and further straining the governing bloc.
• ERC resists opening budget talks without progress on a tailored financing scheme for Catalonia, compounding the government's legislative fragility.
• PP secretary general Miguel Tellado accused the government of driving street tension, calling the Gaza protests that halted La Vuelta’s final stage an 'ensayo' and predicting efforts to push polarization 'to the limit'.
• The malfunction of anti‑abuse monitoring bracelets triggered PP demands for Equality Minister Ana Redondo’s resignation and a referral to the European Commission, as regional disputes from Galicia’s AP‑9 tolls to Valencia’s disaster recovery and talk of early regional polls add pressure.
