Spains Governing Socialist Safwan the countrys National Election but fall in well short of a parliamentary majority with just twenty nine percent of the vote Prime MinisterPetro Sanchez must now attempt to form a Coalition Government a process that could take weeks or even months sundays vote also saw a far right party and to parliament for the First Time Since the end of Military Rule in One Thousand Nine Hundred Eighty Five vox took ten percent of the vote. The Reality Sinks in an election that leaves no party in power many in spain were relieved however that the far right had not done even better than it did at the polls. But i mean helpful for me i think its
a good result insincerely i didnt expect it i thought the right wing was going to win so its cool for me. But i mean. Me but then we think that the socialist victory is good and now there is hope that the bad guys dont win. The Socialist Party leader Petro Sanchez had explicitly pitched his party to voters as the best way to stop the far right. The spaniards have sent a very clear message to europe and to the world it is possible to win against reactionaries and authoritarianism with progressive proposals. But sanchez faces an uphill battle forming a Ruling Coalition the far right party vox may not have won but it still had a record night this election marks the first time a far right party has gained seats in the Spanish Parliament since the days of general franco. Restore so no three c. P. O. This is only the beginning you know im also not a complete told you i aim was to reach out and thats exactly what we have done yet if you dont have a little bit we have a voice in parliament we can now say loud and clear to the entire country that folks has come to stay in the mainstream conservative Peoples Party suffered big losses it was their worst election to date a sign that the polarization that is affected politics across europe has come to spain possibly for a long time to come. Straight to the spanish capital than where we joined it only correspondent a public welcome public so what. Has his options for forming a Coalition Government. Well first and foremost its going to be difficult for him thats for sure because of course he folds quite far short of a majority he has expressed a desire along with the number two and a socialist government capable to govern alone just with basically the support
somehow of party such as them most of course thats the party and then regional parties too but he also hasnt ruled out the idea of entering into government with that would be best for them once he said that in an interview in the days leading up to the election on sunday but were going to have a few weeks now of a negotiations and everybody is waiting here in spain with bated breath to see who exactly Pedro Sanchez or how he decides to form his new government lets talk about the far right the vox the value of. St paul and how much influence other locked into how. Well the influence is i mean that they have ten percent of the vote today for a day of really come here with you know a significant percentage considering that at the last time around and even have an m. P. In twenty sixteen at they said that their plan is essentially to make a noise and this is just the beginning of vox their idea is basically to make people and realise what theyre about him what their policies are about and that
way they can grow as a party so that next time around theyll theyll grow and they seem to be pretty certain that. Theyve used the word which i suppose has has surprised and shocked some people in spain which is which means resistance now what that means exactly is a little bit on shore but basically their plan is to make changes in spain and they want spain to go in a slightly different direction to the one that were seeing it going and now with. A look of a good conservative Peoples Party its worst National Results what does this tell us about the state of spains political sense. Its more really the political right where weve really seen the changes because weve seen how the sort of more conservative parties are fractured into three essentially the nose who are sort of a liberal center party swung more to the right the p. P. P. At the Peoples Party it was felt perhaps went too far to the right and sort of
didnt manage to talk into their more moderate the Center Voters who left the party and perhaps voted for the nose that was a very good night was a very good night for them and even voters who went from the part of the of people out to the socialists they said today that they need to reflect and they need to see what direction they should take the party and from now but certainly it is being a terrible night for the Peoples Party under particular for their leader public us out of.
