Gabriel Rufián of ERC and Irene Montero of Podemos proposed in Barcelona that ERC lead a left-wing coalition in Catalonia and Podemos elsewhere in Spain to avoid "dying separately" against the right. The event, moderated by Xavier Domènech, has sparked tensions within ERC and rejection from Sumar. Rufián urges his party to inspire the unification of Spain's left.
Spain's National Court has sentenced retired commissioner José Manuel Villarejo to three years and six months in prison for revealing secrets in the case of a phone stolen from Dina Bousselham, advisor to Pablo Iglesias. The court orders compensations of 5,000 euros to Bousselham and 1,000 to Iglesias. A mitigating factor for judicial delays was applied.

Pablo Iglesias, former Podemos leader, criticized on RNE the Por Andalucía coalition deal for the May 17 elections, saying it leaves his party without parliamentary seats. He stated that "there is a lot of people indignant" in Podemos over the assigned positions. He contrasted this with Podemos's generosity toward IU in 2016.
