SPAIN
The EC squeezes Sánchez for corruption the day his brother is sent to trial: {Translation, summary}
– European Commissioner Michael McGrath {pic}, speaking at the European Parliament’s Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs (LIBE), reminded Pedro Sánchez’s Government of persistent failures in Rule of Law obligations, coinciding with the Spanish courts’ decision to prosecute Sánchez’s brother for perversion of justice and influence peddling. McGrath highlighted unfulfilled EU mandates, including the creation of an anti-corruption agency, regulation of lobbying, and greater independence in conflict-of-interest cases, citing the ongoing case of Sánchez’s wife, Begoña Gómez.
– In a LIBE committee debate, the European People’s Party Secretary General Dolors Montserrat (MEP Spain) accused the Spanish Government of authoritarian drift, repeated attacks on judges and prosecutors, and ignoring EU recommendations. She charged Sánchez with slandering critics and using coordinated ministerial propaganda to protect his administration, party, and family from corruption claims. Montserrat further pointed to GRECO’s report (Group of States against Corruption), which found Spain in breach of 19 anti-corruption recommendations that they continue to flaunt. McGrath pledged that the Commission would use every tool to enforce compliance and stressed that defending Rule of Law in Spain is essential to protecting it across Europe.

Socialists ramp up amnesty negotiations to satisfy blackmailing Junts: {Translation, summaru}
– Spain faces yet another scandal in its institutions. Constitutional Court President Cándido Conde-Pumpido (progressive) has accelerated the processing of Carles Puigdemont’s appeal to extend the amnesty law to the crime of embezzlement committed during the illegal 1-O referendum. This sudden haste followed a discreet meeting in Brussels between Catalan President Salvador Illa (socialist) and the fugitive Puigdemont (leader of Junts), exposing how judicial decisions now follow political bargains.
– Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez openly confirmed in Congress that his government is fulfilling the “Brussels agreements” with Puigdemont in exchange for continued parliamentary support, which the right sees as blackmail.
– Court sources revealed that resources previously stalled were revived after the Illa-Puigdemont encounter. The plan is clear: by spring, Puigdemont will be absolved of embezzlement, despite pending European Court of Justice challenges. Even if the EU rules against amnesty, Conde-Pumpido is expected to find legal tricks to guarantee Sánchez’s deal. The scandal deepens as Conde-Pumpido nears the end of his mandate. Socialists rush to deliver impunity while they still have control, before the Court can be renewed with “possibly less cooperative” officials.

ANDALUCÍA
Andalusians will be able to deduct up to 100 euros from gym fees in the Income Tax return: {Translation, summary}
– The package of tax reductions that the Junta de Andalucía will include in its budgets for 2026 will include tax deductions for the expenses generated by the Sport. The measure will affect both gym fees and those that taxpayers pay to sports centres, clubs, federations or other entities.
– Specifically, it will apply to gym fees or other sports centres in the personal income tax return. The measure consists of a deduction of 15 percent of the expenses associated with sports practice with a limit of 100 euros per taxpayer.

MALAGA PROVINCE
Supermarkets Ranked By Price Of Typical Food Basket:
{Translation, summary}
– Alcampo Markets prices have risen the least (0.5%); Hipercor prices have increased the most (7%), see chart below. As the Organization of Consumers and Users (OCU) assures, all the large chains have increased their prices in the basic basket in 2025 and the main culprits are fresh foods, precisely the most recommended for a healthy diet. To reach this conclusion, the organisation has visited hundreds of establishments, which has allowed it to calculate the price level for 183 large and medium-sized Spanish cities. Online supermarkets from the main chains are also included.
– Of the individual products included in the so-called ‘OCU Basket’, 146 have registered increases and 90 have decreased. Foods such as coffee, chocolate, fruit and eggs have soared the most this year, a rise that, added to the previous ones, has led them to double in price in the last four years. The decreases, on the other hand, are more pronounced in olive oil (-53%), “but they are decreases that do not manage to compensate for the prices it reached last year, so they are still 57% above what it cost in 2021,” they clarify.

MALAGA CITY
The equipment for the new chemotherapy area of the Clínico de Málaga has begun arriving, mid-to-late November opening anticipated: {Translation, summary}
– The Onco-Haematology Day Hospital at Málaga’s Hospital Clínico, completed since January, is finally nearing its opening. The last obstacle, the delivery of essential equipment such as infusion pumps, treatment chairs and adjustable beds, is now being resolved, with Health Delegate Carlos Bautista confirming that the inauguration will certainly take place between mid and late November. The project has cost 4 million euros, plus over 600,000 euros in equipment.
– Despite this investment, patients remain crowded into outdated provisional facilities, sparking frustration among users, professionals and families. Critics in the Andalusian Parliament have condemned the nine-month delay, while Bautista pointed to procurement procedures, legal appeals and even environmental permits, such as for removing swallow nests, as causes of delay. He acknowledged patients are well cared for but uncomfortable, and stressed that the new premises will be modern, spacious and far superior to the 30-year-old facilities inherited from the past.

– Muñoz stressed that these appointments have the institutional support of all municipal groups and the Tourism and Beaches Sector Council, underlining the importance of tourism as an economic and social driver for the municipality.
– The program of activities will run until Sunday, September 28, with something for everyone. A Flavors Market with food and live music will be set up in the Plaza de España. Highlights include performances by Decai (Friday, September 26, 10:00 p.m.), Melón Diesel (Saturday, September 27, 10:30 p.m.), and La Guardia (Sunday, September 28, 10:00 p.m.).

WORLD
The UN staff try to sabotage Trump appearance so he takes revenge with a one-hour ‘teleprompter free’ rant dressing down the EU and Russia, then says Ukraine can defeat and recover the occupied land from “paper tiger” Russia: {Translation}
– The United States President Donald Trump was the protagonist of the day at the opening of the session period at the United Nations General Assembly after what seemed an infantile attempt by some UN employees to annoy him and sabotage his speech. After the London Times pointed out in a report this Sunday that several UN employees joked about stopping the escalators when Trump arrived, the escalators stopped the moment the President and the First Lady set foot on them. “If the First Lady were not in good shape, she would have fallen, but she is in very good shape. We both are,” said Trump.
– But in addition the teleprompter failed just as Trump was about to begin his speech and, during his address, the volume at which the other leaders listened to his words was lower than that of his predecessor at the podium, Lula da Silva. Too much of a coincidence not to seem intentional.
– Yet if anyone at the UN thought Donald Trump was Joe Biden and that without a teleprompter he could not string two words together, they were mistaken. On the contrary, his speech lasted nearly an hour instead of the quarter of an hour written and planned. “I have stopped seven wars and never received a call from the UN. The only two things the UN has given me are some bad broken escalators and a broken teleprompter,” said the President of the United States in the improvised part of his speech, before they restarted the device so he could read what the White House staff had written.
– In his long address, which at times seemed more a rally than anything else, the President again made clear his position on the operation in Gaza with firm support for Benjamin Netanyahu and criticism of the new recognitions of the Palestinian state. For Trump, anyone who truly wants peace in Gaza should be demanding the release of the hostages. But the main focus was on immigration and climate change.
– Donald Trump used the platform to advise Europe to adopt his immigration and energy policies, which focus on promoting fossil fuels and nuclear rather than green energies. “Immigration and the high cost of so called green energy are destroying much of the free world,” proclaimed the American President, for whom “the countries that value freedom are fading rapidly because of their policies in these two fields”. “You need strong borders and traditional energies if you want to be great again,” he said, using his slogan.
– Climate change “is the greatest swindle ever perpetrated against the world”. According to him, “the carbon footprint is a fraud invented by people with bad intentions, and they are driving the world towards total destruction”.
– On Europe, he warned that, in his view, it has “a long way to go”, with “many countries heading for destruction because of their green agenda”. “Both immigration and suicidal energy ideas will be the death of Western Europe,” he proclaimed. “Your countries are going to hell” if they do not imitate the United States with immigration, he insisted.
– Shortly after finishing his speech, Trump made a new turn regarding the war in Ukraine through social media. He now believes that the Ukrainian government can defeat Russia and even recover all the occupied territory. “With time, patience and financial support from Europe, and in particular from NATO, regaining the original borders from where this war began is a viable option. Why not?” he stated in a message published on Truth Social.
– Trump explained that “Russia has been fighting aimlessly for three and a half years in a war that a true military power should have won in less than a week”. That led him to describe Russia as a “paper tiger”, a definition that will hardly be well received in Moscow. His drastic change of position came after a new meeting with the Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelensky, held on the margins of the General Assembly.

Google Says Users Banned Over COVID-19 & US Election 2020 “mis-info” Can Re-join YouTube:
– YouTube creators who were removed over their views concerning COVID-19 or the 2020 election can re-join the service, YouTube’s owner Google and its parent company, Alphabet, said in a Sept. 23 letter.
– Rules in place prohibiting some discussion of COVID-19 and the election were lifted in 2023 or 2024, Google said through its lawyers. “Today, YouTube’s Community Guidelines allow for a wider range of content regarding COVID-19 and elections integrity,” it stated. “Reflecting the Company’s commitment to free expression, YouTube will provide an opportunity for all creators to re-join the platform if the Company terminated their channels for repeated violations of COVID-19 and elections integrity policies that are no longer in effect.” People whose channels were suspended or taken down included Dan Bongino, the current deputy director of the FBI.
– Google described the COVID-19 pandemic as an unprecedented time that forced online platforms to “balance freedom of expression” with moderation of content “that could result in real-world harm.” The situation was complicated by top officials in the Biden administration pressuring the company to take action against certain COVID-19 content “that did not violate its policies,” it said. “It is unacceptable and wrong when any government, including the Biden Administration, attempts to dictate how the Company moderates content, and the Company has consistently fought against those efforts on First Amendment grounds,” the company stated.
– Documents released in a court case filed by states against the federal government showed that White House lawyer Dana Remus, among others, were involved in the effort to pressure large technology companies to crack down on “alleged misinformation” during the COVID-19 pandemic.

EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES
Disneyland Paris Recruiters Looking For French Speaking Staff In Andalucia:
{Note: I have had friends who did this. They report it is a good experience if you get the right job, working with visitors, or cooking/bartending if you are dedicated to those careers; but working in the laundry or washing dishes sucks. You will have a much easier time, you will get along way better with your bosses, and you’ll get faster promotions, if you are conversational in French; for some positions you can get by with “tourist level” French. You probably will not be able to save much money. Paris is an expensive area. Rents are high even for rooms in a shared flat, and an occasional night out will drain your paycheck significantly. They tell me the Disney residences can be overcrowded and they not cheap— my friends preferred to move out of them and share a nearby flat once they were settled into their jobs. But it is one of the best job references you’ll ever have. -Ed}
