Spain's Opposition People's Party Unveils Manifesto Ahead of November 29 Snap Election
Spain's main opposition People's Party (PP) on November 10 presented its election manifesto, promising to cut taxes, tighten borders, impose stricter conditions on development aid and slow climate timetables ahead of the snap election on November 29. Opinion polls show the conservative party ahead of Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez's Socialists, but the PP would likely need an alliance with the far-right, anti-immigration Vox party to govern.
Prime Minister Sánchez had earlier announced the dissolution of parliament and a snap general election for Sunday, November 29. The election campaign will begin on November 13 and end on November 27, with November 28 as a day of reflection. The parliamentary term, which began after the July 2023 elections, is being cut short after three years.
Speaking from La Moncloa, Sánchez acknowledged mistakes and unresolved issues, including inequality, public services and access to housing, and said he had informed King Felipe VI of his decision. An extraordinary Council of Ministers meeting approved the dissolution decree, to be published in the Official State Gazette (BOE).
