Overview

• Vox filed resolutions in Les Corts urging the Consell to press Madrid to prohibit Islamic dress in all public spaces and to stiffen penalties against coercion, including suspending nationality procedures for offenders.
• Another Vox resolution asks the Consell to call for a nationwide ‘naval blockade’ against irregular migration and to stop NGO rescue ships such as Open Arms from docking at state ports.
• The resolutions, submitted after the General Policy Debate, are scheduled for a vote this week, putting the PP government on record on measures outside regional competence.
• The PP separately proposed revising the Bachillerato Valencian language curriculum to focus solely on authors from the Valencian Community, a change likely to pass with Vox support.
• The curriculum move could drop works now on the PAU list by Catalan writers like Mercè Rodoreda and Maria Mercè Marçal, while the PP also advances identity measures around the language academy despite lacking the supermajority to change its law.
