- Spain's just had its third election in just over three years. Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez and his socialist party won the most votes but weren't able to secure a majority. This may result in the country facing further political deadlock. So why is Spain's political system so unstable? CNBC's Tom Chitty explains.

I was wondering what is more unstable: Spain or a British lad next to a balcony in Magaluf?

Brits and Americans calling Spain unstable... dear lord, what an audacity.
Jajaja true
Not really.
USA might have the most advanced democracy in the world, formally speaking, even with the drawbacks of a centuries long constitution. I'm not saying it is perfect but Spain is decades behind in terms of politics. Also, UK has a better political system, citizens can speak and demand stuff to their district representative. Meanwhile in Spain, we've got an oligarchic regime which inherits its main structure from the franquism era. We didn't choose the king, we were not involved in or even aware of the creation of the 78's constitution which should not be called constitution since it does not separate any powers, civil parties turned into state parties and basically absolute power is granted to the party or parties in coalition that win the elections.
@@morpheus5302 Our politicians chose the king in 1977, when they were creating the constitutuion, they voted a Kingdom, not a republic, and only the PSOE voted a republic. Even de catalonian and vasc polital parties voted a kingdom, with the exception of Herri Batasuna. And also, the people voted the king when they voted the constitution in referendum.
@@sergiofueyosuarez2839 our politicians (the leaders of every party) betrayed the Junta Democratica and its original principles when they agreed that the king would succeed Franco after his death and there would not be any period of constituent freedom. Then Suarez govern legalized these parties and put them into the state (with the respective public financing) so they could no longer be a civil organization as they should be. So, in 1977 ordinary court elections were held (non constituent) and these parties agreed to create a constitution that was already being redacted in secret by a commission of representatives, as journalist Pedro Altares discovered (www.diarioerc.com/2018/02/20/una-oprobiosa-transaccion/). No citizen was ever involved in the vote of form of government, king or the creation of a constitution. Therefore, I'm sorry but your last sentence is a lie.

Tim Julian what’re you talking about
I noticed how much better everything ran.
This is called Democracy, people talk and they are heard, yes there are protests, but its the people making their views known. Government are not meant to rule above the people they are there to reflect the peoples will.
Like Aristotle said, democracy becomes demagogy. Well, Spanish is full of demagogues, and I'm not talking only about politizians. Ideology is more important than facts in here; we mistake liberalism for fascism, equal laws for male chauvinism and so you can't even take part in political discussions without getting boycotted by politically correct groups crowded with teenagers full of anger for the things they ignore. Ridiculous. We deserve every piece of what we got.
Sorry, but that's not what they're doing. It's really complicated and long to explain, I don't think you can really get a grasp in just seven minutes. The constant elections are not a good symptom, rather a consequence of a lot of different tensions that don't get solved (at all) by electing a few different people from several parties. There are parties (catalan) whose officials get banned, even. Nevermind they were allowed to present their candidature and were voted by the people. This is ignoring the people's will.
@@nurianadal4980 Dude just stfu, you're responding to every single comment with your childish argumentation. We get it, you want an independent Catalonia and you have believed every single lie that the independence leaders have told you, turning your movement into almost a sect; you guys have turned Catalonia into a place where nobody has the right to express themselves but you, a place in which only your movement is right and the rest are wrong. You guys try to spread the "opression of the spanish government" internationally and you only get other countries denying your political mantras and falsehoods, as seen in the European Court. So please, stop being fucking fascist dumbasses and stick your heads out of your asses, for god's sake.
@@user-gy6tx3zu5q You are not from catalonia and it shows. Nobody is opressed in catalonia, in fact the opression comes from the spanish government. You don't like the idea of a fractured spain we get it, but that someone has a different point of view in this matter does not mean that they have been lobotomized by the media. In fact the spanish television media is one of the most unreliable sources of information. What I want to say is that the one who has been feed with lies and half-truths it's you more than anyone else.
The problem here in catalonia is that some people wanted to vote (what a thing right?) and the governmemt basically said "not in a thousand years". No conversation, no dialogue, only beatings and the 155. And you have the nerve to say that we are the ones who act like a cult right? You can lie to other people here in spain, but outside this country where they are not feed the same lies that you eat everyday, they can crearly see where is the problem.

Comments:
No my country is the most unstable
also comments:
no it isnt, mine is.
What's your country?
Mine is the most stable. They have been using the same refrigerator for the past 60 years: Cuba. That’s stability!!!!!
Geez, Spain must be a neat country if that’s what others are saying about theirs.
You didn't tell what your country is called.
Did you just refer to the Constitutional Court, the highest in its order in Spain, as “ a court in Madrid “ ?? This video is so misleading and biased.
Biased towards..... (I'm not saying that it isn't)
That Constitutional Court took a Catalan Statute approved by Catalan parliament, Spanish Congress, Spanish Senate and by the Catalan people in referendum... and decided that some of it was "unconstitutional", so the judges proceeded to butcher it a bit more (fuck accountability and the will of the people, 'cause this is Spain)
The problem is that certain important judiciary organs in Spain simply aren't independent.
The Spanish Constitutional Court is formed by 12 judges, 10 of whom are appointed by the government + congress + senate...
What's wrong with this system? Well, when parties like PP (one of the most corrupt in Europe) get an absolute majority in both congress and senate (hence they also get the government), PP gets to appoint 10 out of 12 judges to the Constitutional Court...
Political parties should NEVER get to nominate and appoint judges if the judiciary branch is to be called "independent"... much less when those political parties are a cesspool of corruption.
@C R Um, okay, I see why that's how you read that, but it didn't happen like that. It was more a thing of one party (PP) taking it up to supreme court, that they themselves had appointed before losing seats in congress to PSOE, and then their judges mangling the Statute of Autonomy of Catalonia. Big detail to understand all of that, is that a lot of the improvements that were being approved for the Catalan people are (and were even then, 2010) already approved for quite a few other autonomous communities (regions) in Spain.
There is an undercurrent of dislike, and sometimes even hate, in Spain towards the different historical communities with different languages, especially Catalonia and Basque Country. The Basque Country, however, is not being punished politically and economically in the same way. They have a very different history and have had their share of unfairness dealt to them, in other arenas.
Nuria Nadal that’s bullshit. You either lie or are misinformed. The resolution dictated by the Constitutional Court on the Estatut was backed by the PROGRESSIVE majority in said court. That is to say, by the judges appointed by the Socialist government of the time. It is simply false, however widespread this lie might be, that the conservative members of the Court sought to overrule the will of Congress and the people. In fact, Conservative judges added PARTICULAR VOTES to said sentence, in which they stated that, in their view, and in the view of anyone with any knowledge and decency, the Law should be cut down A LOT more.
And that’s because it should have been. It’s because the Estatut was overwhelmingly, painstakingly unconstitutional. It’s because our president of the time was a big fat arse who comitted to accept whatever came out of the Catalan regional parliament (!!!!!). Whether you support greater autonomy for Catalunia or not, you cannot modifiy the Constitution through a lower-ranking law, in this case a Estatut. They should have reformed the Constitution, then proceeded with their bullshitting on a regional level if that’s what they wanted to. Aaaaah, but 2/3 of Congress were required for that, aaaah, they no longer had a majority. If only. So they chose to take us into this huge mess. Because our politicians are idiots, and to be honest so is our whole country.
@@Goreuncle But thing is the new statute of autonomy was unconstitutional. It allowed Catalonia to have it's own judicial system like in a federal state (which Spain is not). And giving the catalan government the power to have it's own courts would be likd effectively giving them the right to secede since they would not prosecute their own when they (for example) organize an illegal declaration of independence.
This statute should've never been approved by the constitutional court as it would violate the principle of power separation.
The truth is that it's not all about politics. The economic problems since 2008 never really got improved. Youth unemployment is still very high, and a lot of students have trouble getting jobs.

I hope that CNBC has the decency to apologize for this insulting video and make it available to the universities so they can study what the fake news is.
1. The title of the video already invites confusion when talking about an "unstable Spain", although it can be considered that the parliament is fragmented that does not mean that Spain is unstable. the Spanish constitution endows this country with absolute institutional and political stability.
2. It is that constitution that makes Spain, institutions, regions, municipalities, courts, etc ... continue to function and not be affected by political fragmentation.
3. with respect to Catalonia! it is that same constitution and those same stable courts that managed to stop a coup in Spain in 2017.
4. When this video speaks of "a Madrid court declaring the referendum illegal", it is implied that it was an arbitrary decision because it is not explained that the court that prohibited the referendum was the constitutional court, the one in charge to protect and preserve the laws of Spain.
5. In the same way when it is said that the leaders of the referendum were arrested for organizing a referendum against the constitution, it is not said that it is that constitution that protects their right to be pro-independence nationalists, among other rights.
6. once again this video shows the little understanding that the Anglo-Saxon countries have of other countries of the world, which often have better democracies than theirs. espanaglobal.gob.es/en/current-news/society/spain-once-again-full-democracy-according-annual-index-economist
7. I expected the CNBC to follow the journalistic standards of investigating and contrasting information, but this video makes it clear that neither one nor the other has been done.
8. this video is a pure cut and paste of sensationalist headlines of badly informed newspapers and does not respond to the political and social complexiti of a country. this cheap "analysis" may only have come to light for two reasons: the first that CNBC is full of uneducated people and the second that they have done so wanting to hide the political and institutional instability that they suffer.
As a lover of Spanish politics, I recommend that you inform yourself of the fascinating history of Spain, how advanced its constitution and its institutions are and how insteresting the political terrain is.

Wtf? This was published in 2019, and the crisis is from 2008, more than 10 years ago... you cant still talk of the crisis as a huge thing anymore. The unemployement rate isnt that high: You say 27% unemployement in 2015, but in 2019 (the same year of publication) it stands at 14,7% according to INE (almost reduced by half).... so its actually decreasing since spain is the country in the EU that grows the fastest at 3%not to mention that in places like the Basque Country or Navarre, the unemployement rate stands at 5% now and stood at 8% in the worst part of the crisis. You cant apply 27% to all areas of the country. So People, dont pay attention to this video, is a bit bias, the data are inacurrate and old dated.
Spain is so unstable because the political system shifts constantly from neo-marxism to socialism, depending on the ruling party (left vs right, respectively). Taxes are outrageous, with a 45% taxing bracket at 60,000 euros annual income and 30% taxes for an average Spanish salary . Salaries (average salary is 23,000 eur/yr) rank as the eighth highest out of 22 European countries; however, the average cost of living in a city like Madrid is 15,948/yr for one person living in a small apartment BUT this costs climbs up to 38,076 eur /yr for a 4 person/ family living in a medium apartment, which makes the costs of living unsustainable for one single working member in a family, on average. Morever, Spain has traditionally had a huge unemployment rate (14% at present) but keeps importing illegal immigrants from northern Africa with no qualifications whatsoever (and giving them more social benefits than any legal Spanish citizen, with no perspective for having a return to that "investment" in any near or far future). My personal view about why it has such an unstable political-economic situation is because the economy is highly state-controlled (resembling a communist system) and it does not adapt on time to the constant changes of the socioeconomic environment. Furthermore, this state control system deviates insane amounts of money and resources to services of no use for the national economy, promotes sectarianism (at regional level: e.g. catalunya, vasc country), perpetuates corruption and empowers local mafia-like individuals who make all possible efforts to keep on top of their pyramid by prevaricating over the ones below them. This mafia prevails at all levels that depend on these state funds (not only at the independentist institutions, but in economic sectors like health, transportation or fishing & agriculture). I lived in Spain for nearly 20 years. Thanks God I am out of there. Spain, like many other parts of Europe, is in my opinion doomed... unless they snapped out of their idealized socialist utopia. My advice to anyone thinking about going to Spain would be: only go there for tourism or for retiring, never for working or investing.

Nice try, but not pretty accurate to be honest
Spain might certainly not be the most focused on its policies, but I see a multi party system as a more democratic way of doing things. yes, it takes more negotiations to get anything done but at least this way the people can actually vote for policies instead of just partisanship, unlike the USA where people don't have any real choice, the leaders of their party decide what it is done and people has to vote for them just not to vote for the opposing party, also when any single party doesn't hold a majority in the parliament passing laws is not given for granted so lobbying becomes more difficult and so does corruption
Nothing gets done
Not really unlike spain in the US people vote for people not political parties if you lose a primary you can just switch parties or go independent which is why democrats from California and new york are more left wing than a basic national democrat and democrats from the mid west are more pro labor union etc
@Channel you must be one of those poeple that is excited about having read a philosophy book for the first time. if you knew Plato's Ideas as well as you claim you would realize his proposal about the inadequacy of the masses for making rational decisions (hence why they shouldn't vote), is inaplicable in a post industrial society, his political ideas only make somewhat sense in the system of his time where there where no parties at all and the senate was just an oligarchy of wealthy land owners in an era where "might make rights" was the public discourse. of course it would be great to have a system that could evaluate weather somewhat is fit to take important decision but how could one go about implementing it without risking autocracy an systematic political alienation? at the end of the day what plato proposes is an ideal, in practice his system is particularly prone to corruption. for better or worse democracy is the best Idea of government we currently have, the masses might make decisions that ultimately doom us but at least since we all have the power to vote we can all each have some power over one's destiny. if you think your neighbor is going to doom you with his decision then get off your ass and convince him to rectify, if society won't see things your way be humble and vote with your feet
A bipartisan system is almost the definition of mob rule. What can be chosen with so little choice? A multi party system is giving people way more choice. Indeed, the way parties handle corruption is done way less spectacular, but tackling corruption in a two-party system is mostly replacing a corrupt member of the opposite party by a corrupt member of your own party.
Multi party system exists in Sweden, finland, the netherlands and interestly enough in these three countries the far right wing parties are second most voted political force. YES, in scandinavia countries!.
But hey Spain is unstable because for the first time in many years they have a multi party system.
See where the negative bias about Spain is?.
It seems Spain for whatever reason are not liked in that private club of accepted countries but then multi party system from scandinavia are seen as stable democracies but everybody will look the other way if far right wing parties are thriving in these countries.

Wow! I thought CNBC would be above this stuff. I have visited Spain a few times over the past several years, and I actually know people there.
The idea that Spain's government is unstable is absolutely laughable, especially coming from the mouth of a Brit. Double irony!
And, my fellow English-speakers, if you cannot pronounce Spanish at least approximately, go with the English translation. Trust me.
Nah, if Spaniards can butcher other languages in their reportages, Englishmen can do it too. You don’t need to speak the language for that. Everybody has the right to sound silly; like Englishmen saying Gardea Sibil, and spaniards saying Theeeveel Gard. Nobody cares.
Spain like most of europe is not unstable, it's democratic, and democracy is hard but fair, unlike the 2 party tyranny of the US
That's why Spain ans the EU (with 6 and 8 major parties each) are more democratic than the US, unstable? Well compared to a dictatorship maybe but that's nothing we europeans cannot fix
Well, Spain for 30 years has been basically a two party system with a small third party and several nationalistic parties, most of the times only one party was able to govern alone, and sometimes with the help of regional parties. The biggest problem of political instability is that Catalan nationalist parties don't support any more any national parties unless they do a referendum of independence, so now you have three different blocks (left, right and Catalan nationalist parties) that if not any of them gets a majority in the parliament is very difficult for them to govern. It's possible that they will even need to repeat elections again.
2 party tyranny of the US? give me a break! US is the best country to ever exist in history. You must be a lefty. Stay in socialist Europe.

Why is Spain so unstable?
UK: Hold my beer
Spain is so unstable because the political system shifts constantly from neo-marxism to socialism, depending on the ruling party (left vs right, respectively). Taxes are outrageous, with a 45% taxing bracket at 60,000 euros annual income and 30% taxes for an average Spanish salary . Salaries (average salary is 23,000 eur/yr) rank as the eighth highest out of 22 European countries; however, the average cost of living in a city like Madrid is 15,948/yr for one person living in a small apartment BUT this costs climbs up to 38,076 eur /yr for a 4 person/ family living in a medium apartment, which makes the costs of living unsustainable for one single working member in a family, on average. Morever, Spain has traditionally had a huge unemployment rate (14% at present) but keeps importing illegal immigrants from northern Africa with no qualifications whatsoever (and giving them more social benefits than any legal Spanish citizen, with no perspective for having a return to that "investment" in any near or far future). My personal view about why it has such an unstable political-economic situation is because the economy is highly state-controlled (resembling a communist system) and it does not adapt on time to the constant changes of the socioeconomic environment. Furthermore, this state control system deviates insane amounts of money and resources to services of no use for the national economy, promotes sectarianism (at regional level: e.g. catalunya, vasc country), perpetuates corruption and empowers local mafia-like individuals who make all possible efforts to keep on top of their pyramid by prevaricating over the ones below them. This mafia prevails at all levels that depend on these state funds (not only at the independentist institutions, but in economic sectors like health, transportation or fishing & agriculture). I lived in Spain for nearly 20 years. Thanks God I am out of there. Spain, like many other parts of Europe, is in my opinion doomed... unless they snapped out of their idealized socialist utopia. My advice to anyone thinking about going to Spain would be: only go there for tourism or for retiring, never for working or investing.

@@runningsteam6941 It was just so funny! As spanish citizen, I can tell you those thoughs seems to come from a very (very) far right spectrum, even anarcho capitalism. 20 years living here?

Its the best thing we have and keep us apart from the animals like US administration who let people dye on the streets and charges you money for the healthcare, wich is NOT a service, but a right. You even have the godamm balls to blame inmigrants for our economic problems. Who is gonna work on the fields in Andalucía? The Spanish problems are corruption, a neo fascist institutions that werent cleaned up after the bloody dictator died, massive privatizations (which works very much worst than the public oned. You had 20 years to check tons of cases like hospitals in Madrid), and leaders that follows like fucking dogs to Ángela Merkel and the murders of the FMI (they both, PSOE and PP changed our constitution to prioritice paying the debt among the rest of the duties, which could be considered as treason). The problem with people like you, appart of being SO funny to hear, is that you never ever opened a damm history book, doesnt understand sociologics, and eat way too much ultracapitalist neofascist propaganda (spanish media its consired as the most manipulated of the whole European Union).
And that, because of natural human ideology resistance, you will never change this distopya in your head.

1: Look at inmigrants research. They produce more money than they take. Also, look to our age pyramid. And dont tell me, please, that we should let dye people in the ocean more times. I bet you are not a Monster. I hope.
2: Look at the corruption rates, and banks. We all gave to them around 40000 millions that should came back. Never did.

Neo-marxism? What? In 1979-1980 PSOE changed their ideology from marxism to socialism. And this is the "left-wing" party. You'd think that PP, right-wing, wouldn't support maxism, but sure, why not.

Some countries evolute and progress and we are happy to be one of those countries, and proudly part of the EU, btw.
I think because we looove to trash talk ourselves and praise everybody else. Since the 60s everybody praises Germany as a role model. They have certain things they do better than Spain, I think they value workers and knowledge more in general but also a lot of it is just how they market themselves… “ we are so organized, so clean, so smart…” while blaming everything that’s wrong in Germany to their Turkish community… I’ve worked for Germans and they’re not smarter, faster or cleaner that anybody else but that love to tell you they are… ( I love Germans by the way).

According to our Constitution, Spain is a nation of nations. It is not accurate to use the terms nationalist and separatist in the same way because they are not exactly the same. There are quite a lot of nationalist citizens that don't want their regions to become independent but to have some autonomy when governing. It is specially important for all of us who have different cultures, speak different languages and have a better understanding of our problems and needs than a completely centralized Government. Spain is a very culturally diverse country and a single, absolutely centralized Government just doesn't fit the needs of every region.
By the way, talking about cultural diversity I don't think I'll ever see a single video of foreigners talking about Spain without the stereotypical Flamenco music in the background. It is mostly a part of southern Spain's culture but I don't think many foreigners realize that it has absolutely nothing to do with a lot of other regions. For example in Galicia I've never seen/heard anyone singing/playing Flamenco. Here in the north west our traditional culture revolves around bagpipes and dances like the different Muiñeiras but literally never what these videos portray.
Hahahaha Spain is a mess. France is a centralized country and it’s culturally just as diverse as Spain. 🤷🏻♂️

Overall an average family imcome could go down by 25-35% Which can be a big deal. After the boom of the crisis, people voted to right wingers and the country stabilized again, then the socialist said that he will make Spain a better country which he’ll never make, just an other crisis.

This vídeo is very biased. First of all, the “unstable” nature discussed by the video is mostly backed by the situation in the 2009-2012 era, in which the whiplash of the 2008 crisis caused a lot of problems. However, I see the contrary. Despite the bad economical and social situation, Spain has continuously been improving its economy and social affairs as well as continuously lowering unemployment back to 2008/09 levels, even the Catalan initial upheaval has been reduced as negotiations are undergoing.
There is also more representation of the people’s choice and voice in Congress due to the end of bipartidism.
I see this as signs of a constantly improving and ongoing nation, not an unstable one.

Spain is a bit unstable because we have too many politicians and too many public administrations and semi-public companies full of the friends of the politicians, basically people whose objective is in many cases contrary to the general public interests. But on the other hand we have a very good public health service and the quality of life is I believe relatively high.
