President of Madrid Isabel Ayuso was secretly investigated by her party—supporters claim. Polls are predicting that the PP could lose as much as 25% of its votes to VOX due to its own internal strife.
The purpose of the center-Right in Spain is to flank the Left’s agenda, but the regional elections in Castilla y Leon have revealed that its electorate is no longer willing to go along with this.
The elections captured international headlines as a barometer for possible change in Spanish politics, marked by a turn to the Right and the increasing influence of dissatisfied rural voters.
At the beginning of the next school year, Spanish children aged six and under who’re enrolled in public schools will be taught that gender—rather than a biological reality—is a social construct.
Lack of unity on the issue of abuse of minors, and a lack of willingness to make investigations as comprehensive and thorough as possible, bespeaks a profound moral crisis.
The Spanish center-right Partido Popular (PP) has complained that the socialist-led government is overwhelmingly directing European funds to municipalities governed by its party, in what seems to amount to systematic political discrimination.
If the Partido Popular (PP) hopes to reconsolidate the Right and return it back under its centrally placed umbrella, it might be advised to follow the leads of Isabel Díaz Ayuso and Cayetana Álvarez de Toledo.
Spanish political life will polarize around those offering policies that have straightforwardly led to present difficulties, and those whose program has promised to drastically reduce a state whose regional level is notoriously hypertrophic and reindustrializing the country. VOX is the most obviously poised to take advantage of this.
“Every day, the government sent police officers to scare us [as we held peaceful prayer vigils outside abortion clinics],” reported the Madrid coordinator of 40 Days for Life.
