The average pension in our city has risen, during the Government of Pedro Sánchez, from 1,202 euros to 1,596 euros per month, that is, there has been an increase of 394 euros per month.
The Delegate of the Government in Ceuta, Cristina Pérez, has valued this revaluation of pensions benefits almost 9,000 ceuties.
Contributory pensions will be revalued overall by 2.8% in 2025. It is the fourth year that pensions increase according to the CPI: 2.8% in 2025, 3.8% in 2024, 8.5% in 2023 and 2.5% in 2022.
In fact, the highest representative of the Government of Spain in our city has compared the system of revaluation of pensions that is being carried out by the Executive of Pedro Sánchez with the model that was implemented by the Government of the PP, which represented an increase of 0.25% indistinctly of the rise that the IPC experienced.
With the system applied by the PP Government, the increase, in the same period of time, in our city would have been for pensioners of only 18 euros per month, said Cristina Pérez in her appearance before the media.
For the Government of Pedro Sánchez, the defense of the public pension system is an absolute priority. While the People’s Party cut the pension system for more than eight years, for the current Executive the goal is to raise pensions year after year.
The PP government carried out a pension reform, with which it condemned our pensioners to a brutal loss of purchasing power, given that year after year they were impoverished because their pensions rose by 0.25%, or in other words, just over one euro a month, well below the cost of living.
The socialist government has linked the revaluation of pensions to the increase in the CPI. “We are going to continue dignifying pensions and revaluing them according to the increase in the cost of living, because that is what our elders deserve,” said the Delegate of the Government.
