Business leaders call for political unity to demand the Vigo-Oporto and Vigo-Madrid AVE via Cerdedo
Jorge Cebreiros, president of the CEP, expressed concern over the automotive crisis affecting European countries like Germany, which could impact the Stellantis factory in Vigo. He called for unity among unions and business leaders, particularly in response to a strike called by the CIG. Additionally, Cebreiros urged political unity to advocate for high-speed rail connections, specifically the Vigo-Oporto and Vigo-Madrid AVE via Cerdedo, after political parties failed to reach a consensus in the Vigo City Council and the Senate.
New Strikes Begin for VITRASA Workers
Vitrasa workers in Vigo have resumed strikes due to unresolved disputes with the company management. The strikes, scheduled for several days in November and December, are a result of failed negotiations over wage adjustments and compensation for past inflation impacts. The company claims its offer is generous, while unions argue it fails to address previous financial losses. The situation remains tense, with mutual accusations between the company and the unions.
Numerous visitors toured the center of Vigo the day after the Christmas lighting
The day after the Christmas lighting event in Vigo, numerous locals and visitors, including many from Portugal, enjoyed the city's festive decorations. The new adornments were notably successful, with significant interest in the large Christmas tree and the nativity scene at Casa Das Artes.

The alleged killer of Estela was hiding in a shed for 6 days
The main suspect in the murder of Estela, a 36-year-old woman, was found hiding in a shed in the same parish of Belesar in Baiona, close to where the crime allegedly took place. The suspect's mother informed the Guardia Civil of his location. The suspect, who is believed to have inflicted fatal head injuries on Estela, is currently in custody at the Guardia Civil headquarters in Vigo and has exercised his right to remain silent. He will be presented before the gender violence court.
The Mayor of Vigo Demands the End of AP-9 Tolls Before 2029
The Mayor of Vigo, Abel Caballero, is advocating for the removal of tolls on the AP-9 highway before 2029, aligning with the Spanish government's plans to make certain highways toll-free by that year. He argues that Galicia should receive the same consideration as Madrid, where studies are underway to eliminate tolls on several highways. The Asociación En Colectivo supports this stance, urging the Spanish government to heed the EU's ruling against the illegal extension of AP-9 concessions without public tender, suggesting that the cost of rescinding these concessions would be less than the subsidies currently provided to frequent users.
The Vigo plenary was unable to reach a unanimous agreement to demand the AVE
The Vigo City Council's extraordinary plenary session failed to reach a unanimous agreement on demanding the completion of the AVE high-speed train lines from Vigo to Oporto and Vigo to Ourense by 2030. The session ended with the PP leaving and the BNG abstaining, while the PSOE's proposal was the only one voted on. The mayor rejected opposition amendments and called for three mobilizations to demand the AVE and other infrastructure projects. The Xunta announced a civil society mobilization to support the AVE demand.
The Religion of the Spanish Far-Right
Vox, a Spanish far-right party established in 2013, employs religious discourse as part of its political rhetoric, primarily serving as identity and nationalist resources. Despite this, religious practice among its voters is lower compared to the traditional right-wing Partido Popular.
Municipalities in the Vigo region send aid to those affected by the Dana
Municipalities in the Vigo region, including Vigo, O Porriño, and Mos, are actively sending aid to Valencia to assist those affected by the DANA.
