Alicante's left-wing parties reject 2026 budget, citing PP-Vox pact

Alicante's left-wing parties will not propose amendments to the 2026 municipal budget, deeming it a "calamity." They accuse the PP and Vox of forming a "bipartisan" government, stating that Vox is effectively part of the ruling executive and that a pact for the budget has already been reached. The opposition criticizes the budget's lack of detail, with some investments listed at only one euro, and argues for utilizing treasury surpluses for neighborhood investments.
