One of the youngest senators in the Upper House after the general elections on April 28. Now, in this XIV Legislature that has just begun, he is one of the youngest deputies in Congress. José Ángel Alonso, elected by the PP in the Valladolid constituency, has been mayor of his municipality, Villalón de Campos, since 2015. Born in 93, he assumed the responsibility of being the councilor of his town in the 2015 local elections, at the age of 21. Now, at 26, he has been a senator and now a deputy. He will continue in the Consistory that has given him so much joy. He explains in an interview with Business Insider Spain that at his young age he suddenly found himself managing "a budget of almost two million euros" and directing a staff of about twenty municipal workers, which helped him get to know the local administration closely.

Many of the interventions that he proposed in the Senate were linked to the disconnection or lack of ADSL coverage that many inland municipalities suffer. "What has no place in the 21st century is that a friend of mine, manager of a rural hotel, has to travel to the capital to be able to send an email," he defends. Regarding climate change, "we cannot fall into demagoguery or generate alarm" The interview Middle East Phone Number List takes place within the framework of the Madrid Climate Summit. Despite the fact that youth movements and climate activists call for urgent action to mitigate the effects of rising temperatures - in fact, the slogan of the UN COP25 is "time for action" - the popular deputy is somewhat skeptical. "It is clear that we must invest many more resources, but we cannot fall into demagoguery or generate alarm or set impossible deadlines as the left sometimes does with aggressive but contentless speech," he concludes.
However, he is happy "for the awareness" that has been acquired, and appeals to the responsibility of "investing as much as possible" in renewables, "shortening replacement times" for polluting energies and promoting "circular economy" processes. José Ángel Alonso, the youngest deputy of the PP. José Ángel Alonso, the youngest deputy of the PP. Technology companies should not be "scared away with taxes" Precisely the emergence of large technology companies is crucial to understanding the economic models of the present and future. Glovo delivery drivers – who a recent ruling once again considers false self-employed – or the fight between taxis and Uber are two paradigmatic legs of a problem: the legal, labor and fiscal fit of these new companies. In fact, Casado himself, before becoming president of the PP, was already proposing measures to achieve the digitalization of the economy. It remains to be seen if the legislature finally goes ahead and to see how Alonso limits himself to this new approach of the Popular Group. Alonso suggests that the main problem with employment continues to be that it is lost.
