In his first Sevillian rally of this pre-campaign, the president of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, promised that, if he wins, he will not only maintain but also "strengthen" his housing policy. Sánchez asks that decrees not be used to pit small property owners against tenants, but the very tone of the report sent by the Minister of the Presidency, Félix Bolaños, to the Cortes is hostile towards the private activity of renting out houses. #Vivienda #Alquiler #Gobierno (translated)

Dr. Laetitia Muadi called for not influencing labor inspectors in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. She introduced Finance Minister LikundeR as a loyal executor of President Félix Tshisekedi's directives. Muadi stated that no category of civil servants was currently receiving their full salary scale, specifically citing university professors, teachers, doctors, and nurses. According to her, the government was gradually adjusting salaries based on the state budget and treasury. She denied that the president ordered, during the 94th Cabinet meeting, the payment of 100% of their salary scale to labor inspectors and controllers. She indicated that presidential instructions were instead focused on accelerating the reform of the General Labor Inspection (IGT), the monthly payment of salaries, and the administrative and financial autonomy of the agency. Muadi stated that these measures had been implemented: a new IGT had been established, salaries had been integrated into the liquidation state for the fourth quarter, and operating and installation credits were included in the 2027 finance bill. She specified that inspectors and controllers were receiving 30% of their salary scale and were demanding 100%. According to her, the government had opted to increase remuneration in phases, as it had done for other categories of civil servants, depending on budgetary means. #RDC #Travail #Syndicats (translated)

The last scout™ reported that Jan Skalický, after the defeat in the senate elections in Děčín, disappointingly said that people do not want personalities, or are lazy to look for them. He urged the residents of the region to reflect on themselves and ironically asked whether it was not enough for them that Miloš Zeman and Felix Slováček came to personally support Skalický. https://t.co/OFni2m2QAp #volby #Děčín #politika (translated)

Nicolas Redondo Terreros questioned the actions of the members of the Constitutional Court in the approval of the amnesty and argued that they had favored Pedro Sánchez and Carles Puigdemont. He claimed that the measure had served to secure the seven independentist votes necessary for Sánchez to remain in La Moncloa and rejected that its purpose had been to pacify Catalan society or facilitate political agreements. The author said that if the Supreme Court ruled against it, the Constitutional Court would still have to pronounce on the so-called "grandchildren's law." He also maintained that the magistrates had lost prestige and had acted in the service of a leader who, according to him, lacked scruples and threatened democratic balances. Redondo Terreros responded to Cándido Conde-Pumpido's assertion that going against the Constitutional Court was going against democracy. In his view, criticizing the court's management and its intervention in the Supreme Court's realm was also a way to defend it. #Constitución #Democracia #Justicia (translated)

Jean-Pierre LIHAU accused an unnamed person of treason and acting as an enemy agent amid the aggression against the nation. He stated that after 18 years in power, this person would seek to repeat their "exploits" of 1997 with Rwandan allies. LIHAU claimed that the Rwandans overthrew J.D. Mobutu in 1997 and placed one of their own at the head of the Congolese army. He also accused them of having assassinated LD Kabila in 2001 and having massacred millions of Congolese. He described the country that Félix Tshisekedi had inherited as infiltrated and destructured, with the M23, over 150 active armed groups, and a socio-economic situation that he termed catastrophic. LIHAU added that the Congolese were no longer fooled and would know how to take their responsibilities without giving in to intimidation. He asserted that the Republic was one and indivisible, that it would rise again, and that justice would catch up with its enemies. #RépubliqueDémocratiqueDuCongo #Justice #Politique (translated)
