    I agree, the economics will force continued pragmatism even if the right gets into power. With fossil fuel prices now being structurally high due to lack of physical supply, going with renwables will be the only option to keep the economy afloat.

      the rest of europe seems to be cutting off its nose to spite its own face by diminishing its industrial capacity via high energy costs while further sanctioning russian energy in the middle of a world wide energy crisis makes me pessimistic about how much damage vox is going to do to the spain.

        It does seem like the regimes in UK, France, and Germany are on their last legs though. And I wonder if the coming energy crisis might finally push them over the edge.

          I really don’t know what happened in central and specially north Europe. Like how the Finish gave up their long appreciated non-NATO alliance that so much prosperity gave them is beyond me. Talking to Finish people today (lots coming to Spain!) is like they are in amnesia and unable to verbalize an answer… social media?!

        Vox won’t do damage per se, but it may force the leading Right-wing party PP for some concessions. I highly doubt Vox will ever lead in Spain. Madrid right-wing cannot get too bold or Catalans and Basques will be soon doing referendums… an irony, when Spaniards vote for more nationalism, it will get less Spain. After 2 years observing Spanish press and social media, I see a tremendous disparity between that and the society, marking strong manipulation.

          it’s undeniable how much social media impact the most recent latin americans elections in spanish social media given the sudden bursts of activity; but i’m just some random american and have to wait years before a research looks into it and publishes their findings.
