    I mostly agree but not completely. Yes, Sanchez is a very much just a masterful liar but him clinging to power for so long instead of handing it to PP/Vox is really a remarkable achievement. PSOE is basically a center-left party and you can’t expect much from them. They are not going to implement radical reforms. And yes, Sumar does focus on empty gestures a lot but I wouldn’t say they achieved nothing. They have pretty good track record in consumer protection (multiple lawsuits and fines for corporations, new laws protecting consumers) and labor reform (Spain had the fastest growing GDP out of developed countries last year). They are also the only government showing some spine when it comes to Israel. Overall, I would give them a decent 6/10. Not great but moving in the right directions. There are really few governments out there that pass this mark.
