the topics of the day
A new exclusive on the Vox parliamentary spokesman, Iván Espinosa de los Monteros, occupies a large part of our front page on Thursday. But there is much more; Here we summarize the most relevant issues so far today:
–The Treasury discovered a second fraud by Espinosa de los Monteros for “simulating” that two of his companies sold a building. The information about the frauds of the Vox leader does not stop. On this occasion, elDiario.es reveals that the Tax Agency found that the Vox leader owed the treasury 293,381.57 euros, including late-payment interest, for having invoiced through two companies without workers when he should have declared the commission for the sale of the property as personal income through personal income tax. The operation, in short, constituted “a simulation”, as stated in the proceedings opened in the Superior Court of Justice of Madrid.
–Guide to not miss out on the Ferrovial shareholders’ meeting that will vote on its transfer to the Netherlands. As we advanced in the opening of the text, the multinational Ferrovial today faces a decisive meeting for its future, in which a vote will be taken -predictably- for the transfer of the company’s headquarters from Spain to the Netherlands. In this explanatory you have all the keys to understand what is being voted this Thursday and what the merger of the company with its Dutch subsidiary will imply.
–Inequality in the ‘heel test’: miracle or nightmare depending on the zip code. Although it may seem like a relatively banal issue, the author of this piece, scientific journalist Antonio Martínez Ron, describes it as “particularly sensitive.” Martinez Ron explains that the difference between autonomous communities in the number of diseases detected in neonatal screening can mean that a child leads a normal life or suffers serious sequelae and, although Health is going to increase the basic portfolio, specialists and patient associations deem it insufficient.
–Doñana, under the threat of running out of water. While the Andalusian Parliament votes to increase irrigation around the National Park, Doñana dries up. The journalist Raúl Rejón recounts: “Walking around the park it becomes evident that the water that flooded the marsh through multiple fluvial branches, now simply does not flow. The drought, the illegal wells, the irrigation rafts, the overexploitation prevent the plain from filling up with those lagoons, islets and streams that the birds seek”. “Is a wetland without water a wetland?” he wonders.
–Yolanda Díaz: “I’m tired of being ‘of’ men, I have my own life, my own profile and my own project”. It is not the first time she has said it, but this Wednesday, at the elDiario.es event for the ninth anniversary of Micromachismos, the second vice president and leader of Sumar was once again blunt on the issue: “I am free and I am tired of being of men”. “It turns out that now that I take a step forward, I carry a preposition with me. It is ‘of’ Pablo Iglesias, it is ‘of’ Pedro Sánchez, it is ‘of’ Íñigo Errejón. They don’t tell me: it’s by Ada Colau, by Mónica García, by Irene Montero. I don’t understand. Do you think it’s casual? ”, Yolanda Díaz asked at the event, in which she was interviewed by the editor-in-chief of Gender at elDiario.es, Ana Requena Aguilar.
