Spain's far right Vox Party emerges as a national force in Spanish politics
It has long been assumed that Spain’s relationship with General Franco’s fascist regime served as an antidote to the far-right gaining a foothold in Spanish politics as it has across much of Europe.
Spain held a general election only six months ago, and the Socialist party called another after it was unable to form a coalition. Since the financial crisis of 2008, Catalan attempts to secede from Spain, rising inequality and immigration have shaken Spanish politics which has been deftly used by Vox, providing it with clear messaging to campaign on.
While the Vox party may have consolidated its presence in the Spanish parliament the impact it will have on Spanish politics remains to be seen - the parties’ new legislators will have to get used to navigating the routine horse-trading.
