Your questions answered by Ruth from Compare Funerals Spain
– Why should I have a funeral plan? Having been funeral planning for over 10 year I’ve experienced some very sad and upset families when nothing is in place. A Spanish funeral plans will ensure that all costs are covered for your funeral service. Getting a prepaid plan will help you feel assured that your family will not be under any financial strain when it comes to paying for your funeral. A plan also means you can have peace of mind that everything has been organised in advance, so your loved ones do not have to make any difficult decisions.
– Why choose Compare Funerals? There seems to be a gap in Spain between independent funeral directors, offering plans at a good price but lacking the security of an established Trust or ability to cover a client overseas and Providers who seem to charge more than necessary. We want to be right in the middle and offer the best of both worlds. Our best-priced plan is only 2,250€ and does the essentials.
– Can I do a payment plan? All our plans are payable in full or over up to 5 years interest FREE. The interest free periods are based on initial deposit. The higher the deposit the less your monthly repayments will be.
– Can I transfer the plan? The answer is YES. You could name 2 people on one plan however if you had a friend/family member pass away we can transfer the plan into a 3rd party’s name.
– What happens if I move? All our plans offer the equivalent service in Spain (including the islands), Portugal, Republic of Ireland and the UK. If you moved to the UK, we would transfer the plan to one of our many partners at no extra cost to you.
– Is paperwork included? Yes, your family will receive a death certificate in Spanish and an international certification in English. We also provide a cremation certificate that allows the ashes on board a plane.

SPAIN
Impulso Ciudadano denounces to the EU the Government’s harassment of the Judiciary: {Trans}
– The constitutionalist organisation Impulso Ciudadano has sent a letter to the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, and to the Commissioner for Justice, Michael McGrath, to “formally denounce the existence of a sustained and deliberate pattern of public discrediting of the Judiciary by members of the Government of Spain, a pattern which, in accordance with the applicable European standards, seriously compromises judicial independence and citizens’ confidence in the justice system, indispensable pillars of the rule of law”.
– The letter informs the European authorities that, since the inauguration of the current Government in December 2023, various members of the Council of Ministers have made a series of public statements aimed at questioning the legitimacy, impartiality and political motivation of judges and magistrates handling cases related to individuals within the Government’s circle. According to the letter, this has been particularly evident following the political agreement signed with the pro-independence party Junts per Catalunya, under which the Executive adopted the narrative of so-called lawfare, or the “judicialisation of politics”.
– The letter cites several examples. It states that the documented remarks include criticism of National Court judge García-Castellón by the then vice-president Teresa Ribera, who claimed that the judge had a “tendency to rule in only one direction” and displayed “significant political involvement”. It also refers to statements by the Minister of Justice questioning the impartiality of the investigating judge in the case involving the Prime Minister’s wife, comments by the Prime Minister in television interviews alleging that there are “judges doing politics” who “cause terrible damage to justice”, and the repeated characterisation of judicial proceedings as operations coordinated with the political opposition to destabilise the Government.
– Impulso Ciudadano, chaired by Rafael Arenas, places particular emphasis on the latest statements by the Minister of Transport, Óscar Puente, regarding the UCO search of the PSOE headquarters on Ferraz Street, ordered by National Court judge Santiago Pedraz, and quotes Puente’s comment in the corridors of Congress: “This speaks very clearly about the purpose and the work that some people are doing to bring down a government, not through an election, not at the ballot box, but through other tricks and other tools.”
– According to the constitutionalist organisation, “this characterisation of judicial activity as an anti-democratic instrument, made by a Government minister from within Parliament, constitutes, in the opinion of this association, the most serious expression of an established pattern”.
– After highlighting the various breaches of European regulations that the statements described allegedly entail, Impulso Ciudadano asks the European Commission to “include this conduct in the Rule of Law Report on Spain, send a communication to the Government reminding it of its obligations regarding judicial independence, and consider the opening of formal proceedings”.

The Caminito del Rey will inaugurate the longest pedestrian suspension bridge in Spain on June 10th: {Trans, summary}
– The Caminito del Rey will add a new attraction to its route starting June 10th with the opening to the public of a 110-meter-long suspension bridge , which will become the longest of its kind in Spain. The infrastructure, financed entirely with funds generated by the Caminito itself, represents an investment of 1.5 million euros and will be officially inaugurated the day before, on June 9th.
– The structure is located at the end of the route, before the railway bridge and the El Chorro tunnel. The bridge has a clear width of 1.2 meters, a metal grating floor, and railings made of steel cables and protective mesh. The footbridge reaches a maximum height of 50 meters and is part of a larger project that includes the creation of a 300-meter trail, surveillance systems, fiber optic cabling, a control booth, and environmental improvements.
– In addition to becoming a new attraction for visitors, the bridge will provide a safer alternative for the final stretch of the route. This improvement will allow users to avoid approximately one kilometer of descent through a steeper mountain area, although those who wish to do so may continue to use the traditional route.

Family accused of creating insecurity in Periana leaves the town: {Trans}
– The troublesome family accused of causing a serious public safety crisis in Periana has left the town permanently. Their departure was confirmed following social pressure from residents and actions taken by the town council, according to Eugenio Cabezas of Diario Sur .
– This group of people had a long history of complaints against them for robberies, squatting, and threats, a situation that came to a head last weekend after they assaulted a neighbour and her young daughter in a children’s park. The incident sparked a massive demonstration that drew half the town’s population and required the intervention of the Civil Guard due to the high tensions experienced in the community. The departure of this clan has brought calm back to a town that had been demanding institutional solutions for years.

EUROPE
EU strikes migration deal for more deportations and detention centres abroad:
– The European Union has moved forward with a vast overhaul of its migration policy, aiming to ramp up deportations and ink controversial deals to build detention centres abroad. Rights groups have criticized it, comparing the new regulations to the Trump administration’s aggressive immigration policies. By green-lighting controversial “return hubs” outside the 27-nation EU, the regulation represents the EU’s hardest line on migration so far and has drawn sharp criticism from opponents.
– “The new regulation will speed up the return process and increase returns of persons who have no legal right to stay in the EU,” said Nicholas Ioannides, deputy migration minister for Cyprus, which holds the rotating presidency of the 27-nation bloc. The deal was struck between the EU’s three main institutions — the European Commission, the European Council and European Parliament — during a so-called “trilogue” Monday evening.
– Dutch lawmaker Malik Azmani, who shepherded the regulation through the European Parliament said, “There is an urgent need for an effective return policy with higher return rates,” adding that only 28% of rejected asylum seekers return to their country of origin, with the majority staying put in the EU. “This situation is deeply concerning. It undermines public confidence in our common migration policies.” Full article: https://apnews.com/article/migration-brussels-deportation-detention-27f04759acf5f9f4df73862c561a609b

UKRAINE WAR
At least 22 killed in Russian attack, Ukrainian president says new assault possible:
– Russia pounded Ukraine with hundreds of drones and dozens of missiles early on Tuesday, killing 22 people and wounding 130, and President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said Moscow could launch a new assault for the second night in a row. The strikes on cities including Kyiv and Dnipro followed Russian warnings of “systematic” attacks on the capital after a drone attack on a dormitory in Ukraine’s Russian-held region of Luhansk last month. Kyiv denies targeting the dormitory.
– Zelenskiy repeated that Ukraine was short of weapons to counter incoming Russian missiles. “Unfortunately, the current level of supplies for our air defence does not enable us to intercept a significant portion of the missiles,” he said.
– Zelenskiy said there was evidence Russian forces could strike again on Tuesday night. “According to our intelligence, another large-scale attack may occur tonight,” he said in his nightly video address. “Please, I strongly urge you to pay attention to air raid alerts.” He said more than 70 missiles and 650 drones had been deployed overnight, and Russian forces had deployed 100 more drones throughout the day on Tuesday.
– Ukraine’s Air Force said the attack included 33 hard-to-shoot-down ballistic missiles and eight Zircon hypersonic missiles, which appeared to be the largest number of such missiles used at once during the war.
– Russian regions also came under attack. The Ilsky oil refinery, in the southern Krasnodar region, caught fire after a drone attack, local authorities said on Telegram. Ukraine’s military confirmed the strike. Russia downed 148 Ukrainian drones overnight, Russian news agencies said, citing the defence ministry.

Princess Leonor has completed the Basic Parachuting Course at the Méndez Parada Military Parachuting School, located at the Alcantarilla Air Base in Murcia. This training complements the military instruction she is currently undertaking at the General Air and Space Academy, as part of the third and final stage of her military preparation.
– Last Saturday, the Princess of Asturias herself revealed through her uniform that she was now a “Paratrooper,” wearing the paratrooper badge known as the “rokiski.” But it wasn’t until today that we were able to confirm it, thanks to the images and videos released by Zarzuela Palace.

HEALTH
Health Minister Mónica García sets the healthcare system ablaze with her Framework Statute, which she promised last week not to present: {Trans, summary}
– The Spanish Government has approved the draft Framework Statute in first round, breaking Health Minister Mónica García’s own promise from last Friday not to bring it to the Council of Ministers this week. This U-turn has sparked outrage across the medical profession. Doctors, residents and professional organisations condemn the reform as stillborn and lacking consensus.
– García, whose department authored the bill, failed to appear after the Council to explain it – a fact the medical sector interprets as confirming her waning political influence within the Executive. The Spanish Confederation of Medical Unions called the move “genuine irresponsibility”, noting the Statute ignores demands for better working conditions and leaves doctors subject to excessive hours (70-90 weekly).
– Medical interns warn of tougher strikes from September, describing conditions as “more befitting the 19th century”. The Medical Colleges Organisation, previously conciliatory, now rejects the text entirely, stating “without doctors there is no health”.
