Overview

  • Supreme Court judge Leopoldo Puente ordered provisional detention for former PSOE secretary Santos Cerdán on charges of organized crime, influence peddling and bribery, deepening the UCO corruption scandal.
  • Labour Minister Yolanda Díaz moved the vote on cutting the workweek from 40 to 37.5 hours from July 22 to the next session after Junts and other partners withheld support.
  • Torre Pacheco has largely returned to calm under a heavy Guardia Civil deployment as authorities open a hate-crime investigation into recent far-right-led xenophobic riots.
  • Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez met Mauritanian counterparts in the first High-Level Meeting to negotiate a “safe and orderly” migration agreement aimed at reducing irregular flows.
  • PP’s Alberto Núñez Feijóo and Vox’s Santiago Abascal have intensified demands for the immediate deportation of irregular immigrants who commit crimes, heightening polarization over migration policy.
