Will Spain’s snap election bring a government led by the Partido Popular (PP) and backed by Vox?
El Mundo political journalist Juanma Lamet joins Adrián Bono to discuss Pedro Sánchez’s prospects, Spain’s divided left and what a Feijóo–Vox governing alliance could mean for the country.
We explore why Vox is shaping the political conversation, how divisions between PSOE’s potential allies like Frente Amplio and Podemos could affect parliamentary seats, and why affordable housing matters to the future of Spanish democracy.
We also turn to Ceuta and Spain’s relationship with Morocco.

Pedro Sánchez, PSOE and the fragmented Spanish left
Housing, immigration and the rise of the far right
