The general secretary of the Andalusian PSOE and candidate for the Presidency of the Junta in the May 17 elections, María Jesús Montero, has called for “feminist training” for judges so that they have a “more inclusive” view of the rules. Montero, who participated in a campaign event on equality in Mairena del Aljarafe (Seville), explained that the Government of Spain “implemented a supplement for gaps in women’s pension contributions” when they had to perform caregiving tasks but that, “every time the courts rule, they overturn it.”

One of Alberto Núñez Feijóo’s great convictions if he comes to Government is to strengthen Spain’s role as a bridge between Europe and Latin America. And this Wednesday he has claimed that link at a summit of the European People’s Party (EPP) held in Madrid with 60 political formations from 42 European and Latin American countries with the aim of addressing the challenges of democracy. At this meeting, the leader of the PP wanted to make an assessment of the political situation in Spain and criticized Pedro Sánchez, whom he described as “authoritarian.” “I welcome you to a Spain that also suffers the threat of a weakened democracy, attacked from the highest instances that should defend it above all else,” he stated.
