The Socialist government defends the move to allow undocumented immigrants to work but the right-wing opposition says the policy will accelerate ‘invasion’
A political row has erupted in Spain over the government’s decision to grant residency to about 500,000 undocumented migrants.
The move sharply diverges from tougher immigration policies taking hold elsewhere in Europe and the United States.
Scheduled to be approved by decree, as Spain’s minority Socialist-led coalition lacks a majority in parliament, the plan will allow eligible migrants to obtain up to one year of residency and a work permit.

A public warning has been issued after a man deemed a high-risk offender was released from custody.








When hosting the Golden Globes in 2020, Ricky Gervais delivered a delicious demolition of Hollywood’s political pretensions, telling his A-list audience: ‘if you do win an award tonight, don’t use it as a platform to make a political speech. You’re in no position to lecture the public about anything. You know nothing about the real world. Most of you spent less time in school than Greta Thunberg. So, if you win, come up, accept your little award, thank your agent, and your God, and fuck off’. Sadly, it seems the message didn’t sink in.
