For the generations on the move in Europe, there are still so many obstacles. A European odyssey 24/07/2023 Democratising the experience of living in a country other than one's own is one of the promises of the European project. But there is still plenty of room for progress and many areas for practical and administrative improvement.

ELECTIONS MONITOR |
The People’s Party leads the Spanish parliamentary elections but is unlikely to be able to form a government 24/07/2023 The People's Party (PP), led by Alberto Nunez Feijoo, came out ahead in Spain's parliamentary elections on 23 July, with 33.05% of the vote and 136 seats (+47 compared with the 2019 elections). It edged out Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez's Socialist Party (PSOE), which won 31.7% of the vote and 122 seats (+2). Vox, led by Santiago Abascal, trailed with 12.39% of the vote and 33 seats (down 19). The Sumar (Add) movement, which brings together sixteen left-wing political parties, won 12.31% of the vote and 31 seats. As the PP does not have an absolute majority (176) with Vox, it is unlikely to be able to form a government. Pedro Sanchez could also try to form a coalition with Sumar and regionalist parties. If none of them succeed, new elections could be called. |
