What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Alberto Núñez Feijóo, leader of the People’s Party, stated his party would reassess pension policies if elected, though he also said pensions are non-negotiable and would be updated with the Consumer Price Index if he became prime minister. This stance follows accusations that the opposition is seeking partial privatization of the public pension system. Protests occurred in Madrid to defend the public pension system one month before early legislative elections.
