The Spin

Left narrative

Sánchez remains the right choice to lead Spain. So far, the accusations against him are unsubstantiated. Meanwhile, his government has delivered historic employment and economic growth, and strengthened social protections. He's also shown integrity, resilience, and international leadership in turbulent times. His record — not rumors — deserves the people's trust.

Right narrative

Sánchez is an authoritarian clinging to power while his party crumbles under the weight of his corruption. With his top aide forced to resign and his family under investigation, his party's credibility is in ruins. Public outrage is flooding the streets, not because of partisan games, but because citizens are tired of a system that shields the powerful.

Metaculus Prediction

There's a 98% chance that Sánchez will still be prime minister of Spain at the end of 2025, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
