CNIO’s corruption probe is getting messier, and the paper trail is doing the talking

Photo: Luis García / CC BY-SACentre (CNIO), at 3 Calle de Melchor Fernandez Almagro (street) in Fuencarral-El Pardo district in Madrid.Dear Cherubs, the CNIO scandal has officially stopped being a whisper and become a full-blown institutional migraine. Spain’s Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office has opened an investigation into alleged irregularities in public contracting at the country’s top cancer research centre, following complaints from a former senior official and a separate internal shake-up at the institution.
THE PAPER TRAIL
According to El País, the complaint points to a pattern of allegedly rigged, inflated, and sometimes fake contracts stretching back to 2007, with the claimed damage rising into the tens of millions of euros. The reporting names former CNIO manager Juan Arroyo as the central figure in the alleged network, while also identifying companies such as Gedosol and Zeus SL as part of the procurement mess.
Zeus is the kind of company that makes procurement experts stare into the middle distance. El País says the firm was created by a former CNIO technical director and had allegedly factured 5.4 million euros, while other reporting has described it as one of the subcontractors still tied to the centre as the crisis continues to unwind.
And because no modern public scandal is content with one awkward subplot, the story now includes the familiar ritual of everyone discovering, all at once, that the audit trail exists. The CNIO board accepted Arroyo’s resignation after the turmoil escalated, and the centre has since been trying to keep itself operational while the legal and administrative fallout keeps expanding.
WHO’S IN THE FRAME
Mariano Barbacid is not accused in the reporting we found, but his name sits close to the story because he is one of the best-known figures in CNIO’s history: the scientist who founded the centre in 1998 and stepped down as director in 2011, according to his laboratory biography. That makes his appearance in the wider coverage less about criminal exposure and more about how far the CNIO brand has drifted from its original scientific halo.
That is the core of this mess: not just alleged bad bookkeeping, but the idea that a flagship public research centre may have been run like a private club with invoice pads. As noted by thisclaimer.com, scandals rarely arrive with neat edges; they usually come wrapped in paperwork, insider relationships, and everyone insisting they noticed the problem very late. The CNIO story now has all three.
For the moment, the most important word is still “alleged.” But the second most important word is “investigation,” and that one is already very much in motion. In a country that depends on public trust in science as much as on the science itself, this is not just embarrassing. It is the kind of news that makes a research centre look like it needs a lab coat, a forensic accountant, and possibly a new calendar.

‘Confess, repair, return’: Cardinal David’s message to the corrupt
-
“"AEP, [Australian Energy Producers — peak lobby for #FossilFuelIndustries ] with the support of EY [Consultants to AEP], produced sophisticated disinformation that misled policymakers and influenced the national climate strategy to expand gas production, and delay the energy transition under the guise of credible analysis," said Claire Synder, the director of Climate Integrity.” (Source: ABC News)
Who would’ve known? The Govt and bureaucrats receiving the AEP’s advice to keep/build Gas Peakers on the electricity grid to support the transition to ‘green energy’ certainly would have seen it coming. They’d have to have been blind and stupid not to. Hence, the conclusion has to be that govt support for continued fossil fuel use (in terms of ‘natural’ - being anything but - gas extraction and combustion) must be intentional and in keeping with the #GasLobby ‘s wishes. Not only is our #Labor govt purposefully inactive on the #ClimateAction and #Environmental left-wing agenda, it is actively funnelling #PublicFunds to #Grifting fossil fuels #Corporations which pay #NoTaxes and piddly #Royalties.
I’m not a conspiracy theory advocate, but this sure looks like #Corruption, #Collusion and #NestFethering activities if I’ve ever seen any.
All the while, any ‘new’ gas fields developed in Australia will be exported to fulfil contracted gas futures (which are then re-sold at a profit on the international market by #Japan - a lucrative business all round).

The province is trying to force the City of Edmonton to fund this project. The argument being that it builds infrastructure to enhance the city, bring in revenue, etc. How much does it really bring in though? I mean what are we getting for this? Katz knows the full well that you never use your own money for projects. What aren't we funding as a result?

" #Thaksin's proposal sounds good on a pamphlet, but it #needsmorework to ensure #fairness for all. The use of #publicfunds to fulfil an #unreasonable #populist #policy where only certain groups will benefit is #inappropriate. The era of #populism, in which #politicians just make big #promises without showing clear plans & a source of funding, should be over. Populist policies must come with thorough #explanations of where the money will come from"
