This episode covers the Popular Party’s (PP) plan to take Spain’s government to the Constitutional Court over its failure to present new state budgets for three consecutive years. With a Senate majority, the PP argues that Pedro Sánchez’s government is violating a constitutional duty by still operating under the 2022 accounts. We examine the political tensions, accusations of legislative paralysis, and what this constitutional dispute could mean for Spain’s fiscal governance.
