Local elections foresee an upheaval in the British political map

Local elections foresee an upheaval in the British political map

Rarely have municipal and regional elections been described as “historic” without it being an exaggeration, like when a football match is dubbed “the match of the century,” or a film, a work of art deemed essential and momentous, that would be a sin to miss. But referring to yesterday’s elections in Scotland, Wales, and England in this way is no hyperbole, because they will symbolize the end of the two-party system, the decline (terminal or not, we shall see) of Labour and the Conservatives, the emergence on the scene of the far right (Reform) and far left (Greens), the rejection of the technocratic centrism represented by Keir Starmer, and the sharp condemnation of Jacobin centralism, with three of the four nations that make up the Kingdom possibly in the hands of nationalists.

The King is ‘Flip’ again in his return to Lakefield College where he studied COU

The first time Felipe de Borbón entered the grounds of Lakefield College School (LCS), located in the Canadian town of the same name in the province of Ontario, 160 kilometers north of Toronto, he was a 16-year-old teenager, whom his parents, King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofía, had sent with the purpose of distancing him from a protective environment and so that he could interact with other young people. This Thursday, the then young prince, whom his classmates called Flip, returned to the classrooms where he studied the equivalent of COU, and although he carried with him his status as King of Spain, he did so as an alumnus, acknowledging that that first experience away from home marked his early youth.

The motor industry in Spain is experiencing its worst year in profits, with a 56% drop, despite the highest level of investment in its history

From a profit record of over 2,000 million in 2025 (which represented an 89% growth) to a deep drop in net results, down 56%. The Anfac Annual Report, the Spanish association of car and truck manufacturers, highlights a clear reality in the sector: the transformation to electric vehicles is being extremely demanding for Spanish car factories, but automakers continue to draw on cash to move forward. During 2025, revenue grew by 3.8% compared to 2024, reaching 80,315 million euros; investment soared by 24.7%, up to 3,197 million euros, but at the same time, net results plummeted by 56%, settling at a mere 853 million.
