22.01.2025The day Parliament said no
Morning headlines focused on Banco Sabadell securing political support against BBVA's hostile takeover bid, while coverage tracked Trump's first executive actions aftermath. By midday, attention shifted dramatically as PP and Junts voted against the government's omnibus decree, blocking pension increases and transport subsidies. The parliamentary defeat marked a significant setback for Sánchez's coalition.

In the afternoon, Sánchez appeared at Davos, proposing criminal responsibility for social media owners over content, while his government attempted to minimize Junts' role in the decree's failure by placing blame primarily on PP. The anti-eviction decree also expired after five years.
