Junts has formalized a break with the Spanish Government: it will block the laws that are being processed and will be in the future and will not support the Budgets
Junts has announced that it will table amendments to the whole of all the laws tabled by the Spanish Government, that it will vote against those already in process and that it will not support the 2026 budgets.
Junts announced last week that it has today formalized a break with the Spanish Government through its spokesman, Miriam Nogueras, and has announced that it will table amendments to all the laws submitted by the Government, voting against and refusing to support the 2026 budgets.
"Pedro Sánchez's legislature is blocked," Nogueras said in a joint appearance with the other six deputies of Junts in Congress, where he reproached President Pedro Sánchez, a week after announcing his party's decision, who has not yet explained how he will govern without the support of his party.
While Nogueras was going to the media, Junts was recording amendments to the whole of the 25 laws of the Spanish Government that have not yet been processed. He has also made it clear that they will not vote for any other 21 laws that are still being processed and that they will also ask the Government to send back the next ones that it may submit.
"Pedro Sánchez will not be able to approve the Budgets or rules such as the 'Bolaños Law' or the 'Begoña Law'," he said, regretting that the Government has lost what Junts considers a 'historic opportunity' for failing to comply with the agreements reached with Carles Puigdemont in exchange for his support for the investiture of Sanchez.
