Feijóo pide suprimir el IVA a los alimentos básicos y rebajar el de la energía
El PP propone duplicar las desgravaciones por cada hijo desde agosto hasta final de año en un plan para la mejora del poder adquisitivo
In a move that aligns with the economic discourse, the Spanish People's Party (PP) has announced a plan to reduce fiscal burdens, focusing on the impact of inflation on families' purchasing power, especially energy costs. The party's leader, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, unveiled this proposal on Thursday, asserting that the surge in prices is strangling middle-class families.
Feijóo lamented that "Spain has become an unbearable country to live in" and urged the government to abandon its "excessive confidence" in the economy. The PP's initiative comprises several measures: an IVA of 0% on basic food items (already enjoying a heavily discounted 4%), a reduction in energy tax from 21% to 10%, an adjustment to the IRPF tax brackets to keep pace with inflation, and increased tax deductions for families with children.
