• Pedro Sánchez has called for general elections on November 29 due to the inviability of the current legislature.
• The Government has not presented a budgetary project during the legislature, which is unprecedented in Spanish democracy.
• Sánchez seeks a progressive majority to 'overcome the elites', presenting the alternative as an 'ultra-right coalition'.
• The PSOE is surrounded by corruption investigations and convictions, including former number two José Luis Ábalos, Sánchez's brother, and his attorney general.
• The State crisis in Ceuta and the rising cost of living add further challenges to the situation.
• Sánchez is betting on reaching around 30% of the votes to stay afloat.
• Sánchez's attempt to overturn the housing decrees rejected by Congress seems to stretch parliamentary rules.

Conclusion: Sánchez tries to divert attention from corruption problems and the lack of a majority towards a moral battle between progressives and reactionaries. However, Spain needs to return to political normality and have a viable government.
