Las elecciones miden el techo de la derecha en Andalucía y la fortaleza del PSOE en su bastión de Sevilla

On Friday, the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) filed a complaint against the online newspaper OkDiario and the People's Party (PP) for paying the legal defense fees of Koldo García, a former advisor to the ex-Socialist Minister José Luis Ábalos. Simultaneously, the government agreed to proceed with the decree law for a pension increase in 2027 through an urgent route, allowing the adjustment to occur once the inflation rate for November is known and the corresponding regulation is approved.

The spokeswoman for the government, Elma Saiz, announced during a news conference following the Council of Ministers that the pension increase is expected to be "between 3 and 4%."

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez used his interview with Jordi Wild to address the chant "Pedro Sánchez, son of a bitch," which is commonly heard at events with right-wing leanings. Sánchez stated, "Behind those words, there is a complete lack of arguments and political project."

On the other hand, the leader of the People's Party (PP), Alberto Núñez Feijóo, questioned in a podcast the possibility of lowering taxes if the PP were to come into power. Despite the fact that tax cuts are one of the party's main election promises, Núñez Feijóo expressed doubt about their feasibility.
