  • The Popular Party (PP) is using the slogan “Mafia or democracy” to highlight their opposition to the current Government headed by Pedro Sánchez.
  • Verbal attacks and criticism have escalated between rightist and leftist factions, and in particular between the PP and the PSOE.
  • Many campaigns against the government originate in leaks and allegations of corruption, some without judicial pronouncement yet.
  • The PSOE faces scrutiny over the case of member Leire Díez, who allegedly contacted investigated businessmen to obtain compromising information.
  • Both the PSOE and PP may be involved in manipulative distractions, which decreases the state's reliability.

Conclusion: Both parties should strive to restore dignity in politics and lessen the hostility. Otherwise, they should optimally utilize the legal tools available, like elections and motions of censure.
