Spanish political tensions over Ceuta and domestic policy

Overview

Political opposition in Spain has intensified criticism of the Pedro Sánchez administration, focusing on the national housing crisis and the migration situation in Ceuta. Opposition leaders, including Alberto Núñez Feijóo, have accused the government of negligence regarding the influx of migrants in Ceuta and failing to address housing shortages.

By October, the situation in Ceuta involved active operations by the Ministry of Territorial Policy and Democratic Memory. Minister Ángel Víctor Torres announced the eviction of 200 migrants from private properties in the Príncipe neighborhood, noting that over 13,000 people had been returned to Morocco since August.

Concurrently, the government has addressed judicial controversies regarding the ‘law of grandchildren’ (ley de nietos). Minister Torres has called for a resolution to the suspension of voting rights for approximately 163,020 citizens, arguing that such suspensions violate constitutional rights ahead of the upcoming November general elections.
