    The Spin

    The Spanish government is doing all it can to help those affected by the flooding. That includes this relief package but also deploying more than 15K soldiers and police officers to help with clean-up and rescue operations.

    When Morocco faced an earthquake, it took the left-wing Spanish government a few hours to allocate funds to help with the response. Why has it taken longer than a week to make the same response available to its own people?

    There's a 2% chance that Spain will announce a snap general election before January 1, 2025, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
