Order of business

Madam President, on 25 January, as you know, a terrorist with an unexecuted expulsion order machetically murdered a sacristan and wounded a priest and several parishioners in a church in Algeciras (Spain). On January 24, another terrorist killed two people and left multiple injured on a train in Germany. On January 30, in Brussels, there was another knife attack, with at least three seriously inju…

Criminalisation of humanitarian assistance, including search and rescue (debate)

Mr President, Commissioner, it is amazing that we have to repeat it again. Taking a person in distress to a safe port at sea is a situation of necessity regulated by maritime law, but to arrange at source with a group of people in a previously determined place the transhipment to the place that the master of the ship unilaterally decides is not to rescue shipwrecked people, but to deal with human …

Protecting the Rule of Law against impunity in Spain (topical debate)

Madam President, George Orwell, at: If the leader says of such an event this did not happen, this did not happen. If the leader says two and two is five, two and two is five. This is the situation of the rule of law, democracy and freedom in Spain. Under the guise of grandiloquent phrases, the will to put an end to the principle of legality is hidden. Big Brother is Pedro Sanchez. The rule of law …

Madam President, the price increase is not a matter of now. Spaniards have been suffering a dramatic price increase since the disastrous management of the pandemic. Gasoline, heating, the shopping basket, basic products ... everything has gone up, while the salaries of Spaniards - and of the rest of Europeans - remain intact, when they do not go down.

The European Year of Youth 2022 Legacy (debate)

Madam President, young people from Europe: Brussels proclaims a European Year of Youth, but tells you that you will not own anything. Others have decided what you have to do, think, feel, live or decide until 2030. Never in history had youth been condemned to live a more miserable life than that of their parents. Strive, study, work and do not accept the crumbs of their cultural bonds. It is their…

While every day we hear of a new assault, rape, shooting or murder at the hands of illegal immigrants, you look the other way.

Madam President, the European Commission's irrational, arbitrary and disproportionate decision to ban bottom gear fishing in 87 areas is yet another attack on a strategic sector such as the fisheries sector. Vox has spent years denouncing in solitude the attacks committed by this network of bureaucrats who, far from reality, put the prejudices of the people first. lobbies the demand for food sover…

Mr. President, you're behaving like a bully in the schoolyard. For years, they have been scaring children, but today there is a generation that has decided to stand up to them. After hearing the debate, it shows again that no one in Europe receives more insults, hatred and violence than what you call the far right. But they're no longer scary, they're embarrassing others.

Its climate fanaticism is responsible for Europe's dependence on third powers. It is the system you created to benefit renewables that has brought about those benefits. Social…
