SPAIN
Almost half of the self-employed remain at the same activity as 2024, but the 37% has lost billing- most pessimistic barometer in two years: {Translation, summary}
– According to the ATA’s quarterly barometer, 42.5% of Spain’s self-employed have maintained their business activity over the past year, 30.5% report growth, and 29.5% note a decline. However, sales figures differ: 37.7% experienced reduced earnings, 25.3% saw increases, and 32.2% remained stable. Of those with improved sales, 80% saw gains under 15%, while 57.7% of those with losses faced declines up to 10%. Looking to the rest of 2025, 15.2% expect business growth, 43.9% predict stability, and 26.5% foresee worsening conditions, reflecting a more pessimistic outlook than previously. Despite strong macroeconomic indicators, including 2.4% GDP growth and rising employment, 75% of self-employed individuals view 2025 negatively, a gloomier sentiment than last year’s 67.8%. ATA attributes this to political uncertainty, corruption scandals, U.S. tariffs, and perceived “fiscal suffocation,” marking this as the most pessimistic barometer in two years.

Brussels freezes around 1,000 million of the fifth payment to Spain for failing to raise the tax on diesel and force digitalization of gov’t services: {Translation, summary}
– The European Commission has frozen nearly €1 billion of Spain’s fifth tranche from the recovery and resilience plan, worth €23.9 billion, due to Spain’s failure to meet two key milestones: raising the diesel tax and investing in the digitalisation of regional and local entities. Over €1 billion will remain suspended until these conditions are fulfilled, though partial payments continue for completed targets. The diesel tax increase lacked parliamentary support, delaying fiscal reform. Previously, €158 million from the fourth tranche was frozen for implementation issues but has now been released after successful correction. Spain has an extended deadline to complete the pending milestones.

Candy gets his way, will serve sentence in women’s prison: {Translation, summary}
– Candy del Cerro, previously known as Cándido until 2023, was wanted for nine months after failing to enter prison to serve a sentence for breaching a prior penalty. Arrested in Espartinas (Sevilla) while sitting at a café, Candy is now imprisoned at Seville Penitentiary Centre I. Notably, after two days in the intake area, Candy was moved to the women’s section, following their legal gender change recorded in the Civil Registry.
– Candy had a 15-month sentence for violating a restraining order and assaulting his ex-wife. To avoid harsher penalties, Candy exploited a loophole in the government’s Trans Law by registering after the arrest as a woman in August 2023, which resulted in some offences being processed under ordinary law instead of the Law on Violence Against Women, resulting in lower sentences. The Provincial Court of Seville found no fraud of law in this case.
– Candy will now serve his sentence for domestic violence in the women’s prison module. Source, Spanish: https://www.libertaddigital.com/andalucia/2025-07-07/ingresa-en-una-prision-para-mujeres-el-maltratador-e-inquiokupa-que-se-cambio-de-sexo-para-eludir-la-carcel-7273950/
ANDALUCÍA
Best places in Andalucia to survive a nuclear WWIII: {Translation, summary}
– Global geopolitical tensions, including the Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Palestine conflicts, have caused significant military, economic, and diplomatic impacts. Powers like the European Union, United States, and China have shaped decisions, often escalating international instability. In a potential Third World War, safety would depend on location, population density, military infrastructure, and resource access.
– No place would be entirely safe from nuclear attacks or societal collapse, but ChatGPT identifies safer Andalusian villages, analysing remoteness, access to water, food, and self-sufficiency.
– It advises avoiding strategic locations like Rota, Morón de la Frontera, San Fernando, Algeciras, La Línea de la Concepción, Seville, Málaga, Granada, Córdoba, and large coastal towns.
– Capileira, in Granada’s Alpujarra, is deemed safest due to its elevated, remote location, distance from military targets, abundant water, small population, being basically self-sufficient, and for the thermally efficient stone architecture. Other safe options include Grazalema (Cádiz), for its mountainous isolation and favourable climate; Montefrío (Granada), with strong agriculture and low population; Cazorla (Jaén), a potential rural refuge; and Pampaneira and Bubión (Granada), for their traditional self-sufficient structures. These villages offer relative safety in a global conflict scenario, though none are entirely immune.
– Photo shows Pampaneira, Capileira & Bubión in the Alpujarra, Granada.

MALAGA CITY
Are chemical submission injections really a “thing”? Reports continue but with not a single confirmation in 3 years:
– National Police officers in Malaga are investigating an allegation of sexual assault on a foreign tourist in a club in the centre of the city. The force is awaiting the results of toxicology tests, which will determine whether the victim was injected with a substance.
– The incident apparently happened on the night of 28 June. The young woman reported being groped by an individual while at a club. She asked the police for help, which prompted the activation of the protocol and her transfer to a city hospital. She asked the ambulance medical staff whether she might have been injected with something, as she was feeling quite unwell. During the external examination, they noticed that she had a mark on her right shoulder that could be compatible with a needle puncture.
– The analyses are yet to confirm whether she was injected with a substance. The police have urged great caution under such circumstances, as this type of incident caused great alarm in the summer and autumn of 2022, when the police recorded more than 300 complaints throughout Spain. An increase in ‘needle spiking’ cases was also registered in neighbouring European countries and the UK.
– However, the Spanish police did not find any cases of chemical submission through injections. In Albacete, a minor was arrested for using a wire to scare women, but the case proved to be a “sick joke”, as no substance was found.

Since this Monday, the State Agency of Meteorology (AEMET) remains active with a warning yellow by extreme heat in the Cuenca del Genil, where it is expected that the thermometers reach 39C during the central hours of the day, and a minimum not lower than 20C.

Deep State Coverup In The Trump Admin- FBI Concludes Jeffrey Epstein Had No Clients, Didn’t Blackmail Anyone, and Definitely Killed Himself…So why is Ghislaine in jail?:
– President Trump’s Justice Department and FBI have concluded they have no evidence that convicted sex offender and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein blackmailed powerful figures, kept a “client list” or was murdered, according to a memo detailing the findings obtained by Axios.
– The findings represent the first time Trump’s administration has officially contradicted conspiracy theories about Epstein’s activities and his death — theories that had been pushed by the FBI’s top two officials before Trump appointed them to the bureau.
– What’s next? The DOJ and FBI say in the memo that no “further disclosure” of Epstein-related material “would be appropriate or warranted.” The memo says much of the material relates to child sexual abuse, details of Epstein’s victims, and information that would expose innocent individuals to “allegations of wrongdoing.” “Through this review, we found no basis to revisit the disclosure of those materials and will not permit the release of child pornography,” the memo says.

ENERGY CRISIS
Two-thirds of Spaniards support the lengthening of the life of nuclear power in Spain: {Translation}
– 66% of Spaniards support keeping nuclear power plants in Spain active, according to the Elcano Royal Institute Barometer published on Monday. This is 23 points higher than in 2023, when support reached 44%.
– ‘The memory of what happened with the general “blackout” that affected the whole of Spain on 28 April and the public debate that arose around it may have generated this increased support for nuclear energy in Spain,’ the study noted.
– The report was based on 1,000 interviews conducted between 19 and 29 May 2025 among individuals aged 18 to 80 residing in the 17 autonomous communities, Ceuta and Melilla.
– According to the data, support for extending the life of nuclear power plants is higher among men (75%) than among women (58%); among younger people (75% in the 18-29 age group) than among older people (63% in the 65-80 age group); and among right-wingers (87%) than among left-wingers (40%). In fact, centrists are much closer to the right than to the left on this issue: they show 71% support.

I ate shark urine, cheese with larvae, and crickets- a chronicle from Mallorca’s “Disgusting Food Museum”: {Translation, summary}
– As soon as you walk through the gate at number 61 Calle Sindicato, in the heart of Palma’s historic centre, the smell changes. Something pungent and acidic hangs in the air, as if a damp wine cellar had fermented next to an abandoned fish market. This is the threshold of the Disgusting Food Museum, recently opened in Spain, and the source of this foul odour is a Swedish fish that has travelled across Europe by road, refrigerated and monitored like a biological explosive.
– Ancient duck eggs, turtle soup, wine from mouse fetuses, bull penises… the delights of the new temple in Palma of the most disgusting food in the world awaits your visit.

Longer waiting times & waiting lists to access care (la dependencia) in Andalusia- 574 days: {Translation, summary}
– In the Spanish health system, “la dependencia” refers to the framework for addressing long-term care and support for individuals who have lost autonomy due to age, disability, or chronic illness.
– Since the system was launched, according to this report, 3.69 million people have been cared for by the dependency system, while 900,000 have died while on waiting lists. The average processing time for a case in the first half of the year was 342 days, when the legal deadline is 180 days.
– At the current rate of the dependency care system, it would take 94 years to achieve full care for dependent persons.
– According to the latest report published by the Association of Directors and Managers in Social Services, the waiting list to access the dependency system in Andalusia in the first half of this year stood at 50,303 people, who are still awaiting some procedure, and the waiting time in the region is 574 days.

RELIGION
The Islamic State (ISIS) has conducted numerous deadly attacks worldwide, killing nearly 1,500 Christians among 4,943 victims last year, with many assaults in Africa and some in Europe: {Translation, summary}
– In Europe, ISIS attacks include the August 2024 stabbings in Germany and armed clashes in Azerbaijan and Russia.
– Spain has experienced a disturbing rise in anti-Christian violence, highlighted by a jihadist machete attack in January 2023 in Algeciras, where a church warden was killed and four others, including a priest, were seriously injured. The attacker shouted “Allahu Akbar” and “death to Christians” while desecrating holy images. Threats against Spanish cathedrals have prompted calls for increased security.
– Reports show over 2,400 anti-Christian attacks across 26 European countries in 2024, with the UK and France particularly affected. Churches have been vandalised, set on fire, and clergy assaulted. This surge in violence reflects growing hostility and intolerance towards Christian communities in Europe, linked to Islamist extremism and other hostile forces.
