Bolsonaro will be released, with chances of about 70%. It's a smokescreen against the bombs that will come involving Flavinho. I believe they will only attempt the maneuver in the second round and that it will be interrupted by other ministers. The financial market, which values stability so much, is getting on a ghost train by supporting this family. (translated)

I just read in detail the 2027 finance bill that was submitted this morning by the Prime Minister ✅ Let's overlook the fact that the proposed savings are clearly insufficient. What I noted regarding taxation: • No general increase in capital taxation • No direct attack concerning the PEA • No change regarding the Exit Tax (and this is what interested me the most) • Reduction of 30% of the exceptional surtax on large companies (positive for the large groups concerned, including several companies in the CAC 40) • No new tax or tightening announced specifically targeting wealth management holdings • Indexation of the income tax scale to inflation • No cuts to the Dutreil pact (business transmission) • No increase in donation/succession rights (but no decrease either) • Several measures favorable to the transmission and productive investment of businesses We will now have to remain vigilant about the modifications that could be made by parliamentarians, But in any case, the Government's proposal remains quite timid regarding tax increases, which is an excellent thing ✅ (translated)

🚨 REMINDER RIOTS WILL NOW BE INCLUDED IN THE BILL OF POLICYHOLDERS. Starting in 2027, a new contribution of 0.8% will apply to property insurance contracts to help finance compensation for communities in the event of a riot. Additionally, there will be: 💸 €200 million in surtax on auto insurance 💸 An increase in the "attack tax" from €6.50 to €8.50 per year 💸 Several additional levies aimed primarily at fires and compensation for victims of terrorism. According to the DG of Macif quoted by Le Monde, taxation already represents the equivalent of about two months of premium on health, auto, and home insurance contracts.

🚨💣 BREAKING : ▪️#ManCity will attempt to demonstrate its innocence by asserting that certain sponsorship contracts were partly financed by the Abu Dhabi government, rather than by the Abu Dhabi United Group, the private company owned by Sheikh Mansour. According to this argument, these agreements would therefore not constitute a violation of the rules. ▪️ The "irrefutable evidence" put forth by #ManCity throughout the case with the Premier League consists of bank statements from the government and testimonies presented at the hearing. They show that money was transferred from government accounts to sponsors, who then used these funds to pay @ManCity. ▪️The independent commission determined that Sheikh Mansour was unaware of what it describes as a series of "fictitious" agreements. On appeal, #ManCity is expected to argue that it is implausible for Mansour to have been unaware that nearly £830 million of his own money was being used in this manner. The club is also likely to contest the use of the term "fictitious," arguing that it is not merely a word indicating something suspicious, but a legal term that has been improperly applied in this case. ▪️#ManCity's lawyers are also expected to challenge the time taken by the independent commission to render its verdict. They will argue that, in this type of case, decisions should normally be made within three months after the hearing ends, so that judges maintain an accurate memory of the examined elements. According to City, this delay would render the decision “legally unsafe.” The club will also emphasize that it presented 24 witnesses at the hearing, while the Premier League provided no witnesses confirming the existence of the alleged conspiracy.
