Sánchez will receive a new parliamentary setback before the summer holidays

Source Summary

On the third anniversary of the July 23 elections and on the eve of the summer recess, Pedro Sánchez will suffer a new parliamentary defeat. The main event of this Thursday's extraordinary plenary session is the government's second and final attempt to approve the stability pathway (deficit and debt targets), which is the first required step to bring the General State Budgets to Congress in the autumn. As happened last week , the votes against from PP, Vox and Junts will make it fail. In an interview on TVE prior to the debate, the Junts spokesperson in the lower house, Míriam Nogueras, reiterated that the stability path is "a mockery" for Catalonia because it implies that "of every 100 euros that Europe allows, only one will go to Catalonia". Nogueras also blamed the low budgetary execution in the territory and has insisted on demanding that Sánchez step aside and "put someone" in place who will comply with the agreements with Junts.
