The president of the Partido Popular, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, appears before the media at the national headquarters of the Partido Popular, on December 29, 2025, in Madrid (Spain). Two days before the end of the current year, during his speech, Feijóo took stock of 2025, listing what have been for the PP the ten failures of the Government in this period: housing, migration, international policy, protection of the family and women, and corruption, among others. The leader of the PP stated that in Spain "it is the Government that is failing, not the nation" and that the PP is prepared to offer an alternative to this Executive.

Each morning at Huaping High School for Girls in Yunnan Province, the schoolyard rings with a bold pledge, "I was born to be a mountain not a creek, rising to the high peaks with the valleys at my feet." Behind that voice stands Zhang Guimei, the school's founder and principal. In her sixties and struggling with illness, she still devotes more than 18 hours a day to her students. Megaphone in hand, she has become a living symbol of how education can open doors that poverty once closed.

Farmers Protest Against Government's Health Policy on CND - France

Neighbours came to offer their support. In Montarreaut, Touille (31), where a herd was slaughtered, the population is rallying to support the farmer. A herd of thirty-five animals was slaughtered (or partially slaughtered) on Saturday 13 December, causing an emotional reaction among local residents. Exceptional security measures were put in place, while the community rallied to support the affected farmer. In recent days, blockades have been multiplying across France in protest against the government s health policy regarding the contagious nodular dermatosis epidemic (CND). The slaughter of 200 cows in Ariege, a decision that pitted protesters against law enforcement for two days, has reignited the controversy, on December 13, 2025, in Touille, Montarreaut, France.
