I’m all for the move, and I’m definitely a progressive, but I think it’d be good for people to understand that Sanchez is no Idealist. The man is a party rat, and all his moves are calculated to keep himself in power.
As I said, I agree with the move, but the motivation is not what people think it is.
The Spanish PSOE is a socdem party ever so slightly less to the right than the rest of Europe, greatly so because the plurinational nature of our country forcing the party further than it would like to gain the support of more leftist national parties in Euskal Herria and Catalunya. That said, I hope they still win the next elections in favour of the far right coalition of PP + Vox
Don’t get too excited. Yes, it’s a split from Orban and Magyar is more pro-EU, but Tisza (the new party) is a splinter group from Fidesz (Orban’s party) and share many of the same views domestically.
Basically, same far right people but willing to stfu to get access to EU funds again.
I didn’t know there were any left. Good job, Spain!
There are many left-leaning left left.

I guess it’s the broken clock thing.

Green Party in the UK are getting a louder voice, ie more support and members than ever.
That’s good, since Labour turned out to be Tory lite just like Democrats being Republican lite.
Yeah they are picking up a lot of support from disenfranchised labour voters.
You should also look into the Hungarian elections coming up its starting to look like their far right leader will lose!

That would be awesome! Do it, people!
