The irregularities of the Faffe provide an alibi for the right to question Espadas

Spanish
| Corruption Allegations
The Andalusian Parliament has resumed sessions of the commission investigating the defunct Andalusian Foundation for Training and Employment Fund (Faffe), initiated by PP, Ciudadanos, and Vox. The commission aims to probe alleged nepotism and irregularities under former Andalusian governments led by the PSOE. High-profile socialists, including former presidents and the current Minister of Finance, have been summoned. The latest session included Carmen Ibanco, a Faffe employee and wife of the Mayor of Seville and PSOE-A General Secretary, Juan Espadas. Ibanco denied knowledge of any irregularities, while opposition parties questioned the speed and transparency of her hiring process. The PSOE believes the scrutiny of Ibanco is politically motivated to damage Juan Espadas' image, who is a candidate for the presidency of the Junta. The Faffe is under judicial investigation for contracting irregularities and misuse of public funds in Andalusian brothels by socialist officials.

Spain's Socialist Party is anxiously awaiting Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez's decision on whether he will resign following allegations against his wife, Begoña Gomez, for influence peddling and corruption.

‘A good start’: Germany, Spain and France propose billionaire tax to help tackle climate crisis
25 Apr 2024

English
| Global Economy
Germany, Spain, and France propose a global billionaire tax to address the climate crisis, supported by finance ministers from Brazil and South Africa. The tax aims to levy a minimum 2% on the wealth of the world's 3,000 billionaires, potentially generating $250 billion annually for global public goods and climate protection. The proposal faces challenges, including potential resistance from the super-rich and the need for international cooperation. While the US has not backed the tax, there is significant public support in Europe. The initiative is seen as a step towards more equitable tax policies and climate action.

Spanish
| Political Conflict
The Spanish government, led by Pedro Sánchez, faced a setback as the Senate voted against increasing the unemployment subsidy, a reform championed by Labor Minister Yolanda Díaz. The proposal aimed to raise the subsidy for unemployed individuals over 52 years old but was blocked by votes from Podemos, Vox, and the Partido Popular. Podemos opposed the reform due to concerns about future pension reductions. The decision has sparked criticism from Díaz, who accused Podemos of betraying workers. The reform is now stalled, pending further negotiations.
