"The plan approved Tuesday by Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez's leftist government could regularise around 500,000 undocumented workers, in a break with harsher policies seen elsewhere in Europe. Musk posted a link on X - which he owns - to a post by notorious far-right influencer Ian Miles Cheong who called the plan "electoral engineering" along with the comment "Wow"."
"Sanchez hit back at Musk, responding to the billionaire's post on X late on Thursday with the message: "Mars can wait. Humanity can't". Musk's aerospace company SpaceX is developing the mammoth Starship - the world's largest and most powerful rocket - as part of his vision to take humans to Mars."
"Sanchez argues immigrants are key to Spain's economy, which expanded 2.8 percent last year -- more than twice the average expected in the entire eurozone. With Spain facing an ageing population and low birth rate, Sanchez says immigrants help sustain the workforce and maintain the pension system."
Spain plans to regularise around 500,000 undocumented residents under a scheme promoted by Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, representing a departure from stricter policies elsewhere in Europe. Elon Musk shared a post by far-right influencer Ian Miles Cheong calling the move "electoral engineering," prompting Sanchez to reply on X: "Mars can wait. Humanity can't." Sanchez frames the measure as economically necessary amid a 2.8 percent GDP growth and demographic challenges, arguing immigrants support the workforce and pension system. The conservative Popular Party and far-right Vox warn the regularisation could encourage more illegal immigration and criticise its political effects.
