After three years, The Government of Pedro Sánchez has faced a global pandemic, a war in Europe and an energy crisis without precedents. All this, with an opposition that has not stopped putting sticks in the wheels and an extreme right dedicated to destabilizing democracy. A tragic situation that, however, is being managed without falling into the abyss.
How are we at this moment? Although uncertainty reigns (a snap of Putin’s fingers is enough), Spain is the country in the euro zone with the lowest inflation, the European Commission points out that Spanish GDP will grow above the EU as a whole in 2023, unemployment continues to decline and BBVA has just revised its economic forecasts upwards and rules out that Spain will enter a recession next year.
Make no mistake, these data do not reflect a buoyant moment, but rather a minimum of oxygen for a suffocating situation. But an oxygen insufflated thanks to a rosary of essential measures. In the lead, the battled ‘Iberian exception’, which the PP described as an “Iberian scam & rdquor ;. Those of Feijóo clung to the mantra of lowering taxes until the shrill collapse of Truss. The economic disaster caused by the shortest ‘premier’ in the history of the United Kingdom allows one to imagine what a PP government would have meant in Spain. If your imagination fails, you can always remember the fateful Great Recession.

Do you really believe United We Can Pablo Motos is the great concern of the Spanish? Can the Socialists overcome that the Ministry of Equality is in the hands of Irene Montero? Yes, we already know, the suicidal impulse of the left. Or Narcissus about to fall into the river where he admires his reflection.
