The spokesperson for the parliamentary group of Vox, Manuela Cañadas, has accused President Marga Prohens of "falling into contradiction when criticizing the national priority clause. The Popular Party member distanced herself yesterday from this idea, included in the agreements between the PP and Vox in Extremadura and Aragon, and called it "populism." In response to these statements, Cañadas has asked if, for the same reason, Prohens' government "is populist": "It is already applying a national priority thanks to the demands of Vox".

Marga Prohens has hung up her presidential robes, put on some jeans, and bet everything on blue in her first purely electoral event, this Thursday in Portitxol.remodelled once) without seats, while the deputy spokesperson in the Parliament, Marga Duran, acted as an improvised hostess and directed the attendees.

The doctor in Political Science from the University of Valencia and author of La extrema dreta a Europa (Tirant), Anna Isabel López Ortega, considers the agreement between the PP and Vox in Extremadura "a warning for navigators with neon lights": "It marks a turning point for future agreements". Especially, due to its harshness in the anti-immigration discourse, because the text of the agreement proposes, for the first time, a clause of "national priority" to access public aid or subsidized housing in general. In fact, the two parties have already replicated the formula in Aragon, and are beginning to bring national priority to debate in other institutions, such as Congress or the Balearic Parliament.

Vox continues to squeeze the pact with the PP in Extremadura. After registering a motion in Congress to establish a "national priority" when receiving aid and subsidies, it is beginning to do the same in other territories. The spokesperson for Vox in the Balearic Parliament, Manuela Cañadas, announced this Wednesday that she has registered a non-binding proposal along the same lines. With this move, the far-right once again pulls the PP into its territory, forcing it to pronounce on an issue that makes it uncomfortable, as various popular leaders have already expressed, such as the Madrid president, Isabel Díaz Ayuso.

The Government has achieved the support of the PSIB, MÉS per Mallorca and the deputy for Formentera for the anti-crisis decree to face the price increase due to the war in Iran. Vox voted against it, arguing that it is a stratagem by the PP to push through hidden budgets. "We will not be accomplices of this mockery," said Cañadas: "They are taking advantage of it to push through budgets".

The conflict between the PP and Vox has once again become evident in the Balearic Parliament. The far-right party has voted against all the amendments presented by the PP, some 80, to the strategic projects law, known as the òmnibus law, during the deliberation of the Committee on Finance and Budgets this Tuesday. The move leaves a package of key measures for the legislature in suspense and is seen as a clear warning from Vox to Marga Prohens' Government.The decision means that several prominent proposals will be blocked or will have to be debated again. Among these amendments are tax reductions to expand the thresholds for the Property Transfer Tax (ITP) bonus, to reduce the tax on Documented Legal Acts (AJD), as well as a 50% reduction in both ITP and AJD for the purchase of limited-price housing.

Ever since Spanish president Pedro Sánchez recovered the historic slogan 'No to war' (which refers to the social rejection of the invasion of Iraq in 2003), the PP has been uncomfortable. At first, the leader of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, insisted that "the relationship with the United States (US) must be preserved", and avoided a frontal rejection of the war in Iran. But little by little, the popular party has been modulating its discourse. Especially since the conflict has generated a price increase in the State as a whole. In the plenary session of the Parliament this Tuesday, the first vice-president and Minister of Economy and Finance, Antoni Costa, joined Sánchez's slogan without reservations: "We say no to war, no to any war, and no to a war that has consequences on the daily lives of the Islands".

The Government has secured the support of the PSIB, MÉS per Mallorca, and the deputy for Formentera for the anti-crisis decree to address the price increase due to the war in Iran. Vox has voted against it, arguing that it is a PP stratagem to push through a hidden budget. "We will not be accomplices in this mockery," said Cañadas: "They are using it to push through a budget."

The PP and the PSIB continue to fight for the extraordinary regularization of immigrants approved by the Spanish government. The President of the Government raised her tone this Tuesday and once again attacked the measure, insisting that it fosters "a pull effect in the midst of an unprecedented migration crisis." In line with her Extremaduran counterpart, María Guardiola, Prohens insists on the anti-immigration discourse, a banner that the PP has set out to dispute with Vox.

In line with her Extremaduran counterpart, María Guardiola, Prohens insists on the anti-immigration discourse, a banner that the PP has set out to dispute with Vox.

The PP mayors of the Balearic Islands have called this Friday for the suspension of the extraordinary regularization of migrants due to the impact that, as they claim, it is having on the town councils. They consider that the process has generated situations of collapse in municipal services from day one.

"Stop making a fool of yourself and deceiving. You, ideology and zero management": this is the accusation that the Minister of the Presidency, Antònia Maria Estarellas, launched at the PSIB deputy Omar Lamin during Tuesday's Parliament session. What kind of accusation is it to tell a politician they have ideology, when it is precisely the ideology of public representatives that determines a good part of citizens' lives? At this point, it is worth remembering what Slavoj Žižek says, who considers that the most dangerous ideology is precisely the one we pretend not to have. It is not an theoretical extravagance. Jürgen Habermas also warned that technical rationality —what we would call 'management' today— can impose values while presenting itself as neutral. And Thomas Piketty has been reminding us for years that behind many technical decisions lie very specific ideological choices about inequality. From this, an uncomfortable conclusion emerges: 'management' is often not the alternative to ideology, but its best disguise.

The PSIB strongly opposed the creation of a private university affiliated with CEU San Pablo in Mallorca. However, it accepts the creation of the Private University of Mallorca (UMAC) promoted by the private higher education center ADEMA. The project received the endorsement of the Parliament this Tuesday with the favorable votes of the PP and Vox and the abstention of the PSIB, while MÉS per Mallorca, Més per Menorca and Unides Podem voted against it. "This law is not our project, it has shortcomings and risks and we will be vigilant," defended the socialist deputy Mercedes Garrido.

The PP deputies do not hide this Tuesday their satisfaction for the defeat of Viktor Orbán in the elections in Hungary. They see in the fact that the one who has ousted the extremist is not precisely from the left but Péter Magyar, a former member of their own ranks, a trend in favor of a more moderate right. While Vox, which sent its leader, Gabriel Le Senne, to campaign for Orbán in Hungary,sent its leader, Gabriel Le Senne, to campaign for Orbán in Hungary, now downplays the debacle, the president of the Government, Marga Prohens, has taken care to recall it in the session of control to the Government. In an exchange with Vox in Parliament, the popular politician warned him to be "alert" with populism, because "it cannot fool everyone all the time".

The plenary session of the Parliament will give the green light to the creation of a private university that will bear the name of Mallorca with the favorable vote of the PP and Vox, the abstention of the PSIB, and the vote against MÉS per Mallorca. This is the Universitat de Mallorca (UMAC), promoted by the private higher education center ADEMA, chaired by Diego González, former general secretary of the PSIB in Palma and former director general during the mandate of Francesc Antich. The vote will take place tomorrow in the plenary session of the Parliament. From here, both the Consell de Govern and the Consell d'Universitats will also have to approve it.

Neither the lawyers' criticisms, nor the PSIB's opposition, nor the threat from MÉS to go to the Constitutional Court have stopped the PP and Vox in their attempt to modify 70 norms at once through the Law on strategic projects. The two parties have recovered, asserting their majority in the Parliament's Board, the hundred amendments (88 from the PP and 12 from Vox) that the Economy Commission's board rejected, considering that they had nothing to do with the object of the Law.

President Marga Prohens has multiplied spending on institutional travel in relation to the last term of Francina Armengol. This is evident from the response the Government sent to various parliamentary questions from the PSIB. According to this data, the head of the Executive has made 25 trips this legislature, of which 14 have been outside the Islands, with an accumulated expense of 151,841.55 euros. Whereas in the previous legislature (marked by the pandemic and the mobility restrictions it entailed), Armengol made 33 trips, 12 outside the Islands, which cost 98,173.95 euros. According to the data that the PSIB made public in the last plenary session of the Parliament, the main difference between the two presidents is that Prohens travels with a much larger entourage.

The president of the Consell de Mallorca, Llorenç Galmés, has announced the Plan Mallorca protects, endowed with 84 million euros, to face the economic and social impact of the war conflict in the Middle East, because "the island institution acts with responsibility, diligence and speed to protect the families, businesses and productive sector of Mallorca".

Vox is once again attacking democratic memory. The deputy of the parliamentary group, Sergio Rodríguez, is not satisfied with the repeal of the Autonomous Law of Memory, which took place on March 10. He has attacked the Government for continuing to pursue memory policies under the umbrella of state regulations. In the plenary session of Parliament, he lamented that the agreement to eliminate this law has no practical effect. "In this Parliament we legislate so that nothing changes," he criticized: "We will have to reach agreements of 6,000 pages, with a notary and hostages."
