10.02.2026The Day of the Socialist Old Guard's Rebellion
The morning of February 10th began with editors focused on the political deadlock in Aragon, where Vox escalated its demands by seeking specific ministries with substantial budgets. Conservative outlets framed this as a test of Alberto Núñez Feijóo’s leadership, while progressive media highlighted the People's Party's increasing dependency on the far-right.
By early afternoon, the editorial priority shifted abruptly to an internal crisis within the PSOE. Former Prime Minister Felipe González announced his intention to vote blank if Pedro Sánchez remains the candidate, a move that dominated headlines across the ideological spectrum. Simultaneously, left-wing newspapers reported on the formalization of a new 'confluencia' between Sumar, Más Madrid, and Izquierda Unida to counter the rightward drift.
In the evening, editorial attention turned toward international pressure as Brussels and the Trump administration issued warnings regarding Spain’s migrant regularization policies. These diplomatic tensions competed for space with the ongoing blockade in Extremadura, where María Guardiola rejected Vox's investiture demands.
