Spain's inconclusive election is a threat to Europe's political establishment

_A divided election in Spain has left the main parties exploring coalition options. Instability and a return to the polls in the Spring are the most likely outcomes, unless tough compromises can be agreed._ Spain’s general election on Sunday produced an inconclusive result. The ruling conservative Partido Popular (PP) achieved the most seats, but was well short of a majority. Support for insurgent new parties Podemos (“We Can”) and Ciudadanos (“Citizens”) proved crucial, and the electoral calculations are now complex. In the final phase of the campaign support for Podemos surged, while Ciudadanos faded. Coalition talks could drag on for weeks, and, if indecisive, will lead to fresh elections. Global Risk Insights COALITION OPTIONS Most of the obvious governing options fall short of the 176 seats required for a majority in the lower house of the Spanish parliament. Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy will be given first chance as the leader of the party with most votes but his choices are limited. The PP could try to partner the liberal Ciudadanos in a minority administration, which would have to lurch from one parliamentary vote to another. A grand coalition of the PP and second placed Socialist Party (PSOE) is Rajoy’s other possibility, and Ciudadanos leader Albert Rivera has also indicated some interest in this to stymie Podemos, due to the two new parties opposing views on a Catalan independence referendum. A grand coalition would have a majority, but has been ruled out for the moment by the PSOE. The only leaders’ debate between Rajoy and PSOE leader Pedro Sánchez demonstrated the enmity between the two men. That Spaniards voted so emphatically against the ruling class and business-as-usual politics also makes this an unlikely fudge. That leaves Spain with a – currently more conceivable – coalition of leftist parties led by the PSOE. Podemos is the wildcard – it considers Greece’s Syriza ideological cousins – in the pact and the most anti-establishment of the parties. Apart from railing against corruption, austerity, and institutional inertia (as Ciudadanos does), Podemos backs a referendum on independence in Catalonia. A PSOE-Ciudadanos government would require some painful compromise from the former and would still not have a majority. It would, therefore, need support from the nationalist parties. This potentially outsized influence could hasten the Catalan independence campaign. Global Risk Insights POLICY IMPLICATIONS Any deal involving Podemos or Ciudadanos would likely increase pressure for institutional reform and an anti-corruption drive. This would be a threat to established politicians in the PP and PSOE, and even Catalan nationalist parties, as unsavory revelations become known. A corruption scandal involving the PP is already moving dangerously close to Rajoy himself. Ciudadanos would back liberal economic reforms, but these only seem likely if they aligned themselves with a PP-led administration. A PSOE-led government, however, would try and repeal labor market reforms and relax deficit rules. The IBEX-35 stock market in Madrid fell this week as the days of Spain’s austerity agenda appeared numbered. INSIGHTS AND OUTCOMES What does the election result mean for Spain? Any government formed as a result of this election is likely to be fragile and the chances of it serving a full term are slim. There is also the possibility that an agreement may be elusive, meaning a fresh poll. The result will also make the Catalonia question more acute. Nationalist parties could hold sway in a left of center coalition, while the general climate of instability presents an opportunity for separatists, who will push a referendum further up the agenda. This all means a period of uncertainty for Spain, and could jeopardize its economic recovery. For Europe as a whole, the Catalonia issue will induce anxiety while new fiscal policies will apply further pressure on the Germany-led model of austerity and a Eurozone governed by one-size-fits-all rules. This year it seemed, at times, that Germany was able to impose its will on other EU members, for instance over Greece’s bail out or the refugee crisis. The results of Spain’s elections will challenge this narrative and – as with an increasing number of movements in Europe – demonstrate a growing discontent with the status quo.

Angela Merkel is about to become a lot less popular in Germany

REUTERS/Marko Djurica The attack on Charlie Hebdo… The near-bankruptcy of Greece… The massive influx of refugees from Syria… And the terror attack on the “City of Light”… That’s how a video begins on _Time Magazine’s _website celebrating Angela Merkel, the chancellor of Germany, the de facto leader of Europe, and their “Person of the Year.” As they put it, 2015 has been the most tumultuous year for Europe in recent memory. And Merkel, for all her “merkeling,” embodies Europe’s ideals of openness and solidarity in a time when both are being tested. If it’s been said that nobody gets rich off the news, then the same runs true that once the mainstream media catches onto you as a trend, or when your name becomes a verb, it’s over! By the time everyone and their dog knows a person’s name, the S-Curve has already matured, so to speak. Their popularity is no longer on the upswing – it’s already reached peak saturation. And no one stays on top forever. It’s like the human model of forecasting: REUTERS/Marko Djurica When everything’s been great for a number of years, everyone thinks the coast is clear and that we’ll never have a recession again. Then when things start to go topsy-turvy, they all assume it’ll be a soft landing and that no major damage will ensue. How bad could it be? And then after the demolition when they realize it can and _did_ get pretty bad, they think it’ll never get better. Again, how could it? People never learn from history and very obvious cycles! We’re at the top of a very long and massive boom since 1983, thanks to baby boom spending. And you know what that means. Everyone’s looking for a soft landing here, there, and even in massively overbuilt China. So for Merkel to be on _Time’s _cover is like Amazon’s CEO Jeff Bezos being on the cover in 2000 at the top of the tech bubble. Of course, given that Germany is the economic powerhouse of Europe, nobody sees the trouble brewing. They’re oblivious to the incurable balances the euro has created in trade in Europe… And even more blind to the fact that Germany will have the absolute worst demographic trends between now and 2022 – even worse than Japan from 1990 to 2003! Look at this chart for Germany’s spending wave ahead… REUTERS/Marko Djurica Now that’s what I call falling off a demographic cliff! It’s so bad that Germany doesn’t even recover into the next or subsequent generations! And notice this spending wave is _already_ starting to decline. And then there’s the massive refugee problem which Merkel has had to reverse her position on as, I expected. There have been over 800,000 asylum-seekers this year, and a projected three million more wanting to come to Europe. These people may one day become productive younger workers, but no time soon. In the meantime, they come at a huge expense to whoever brings them in. I mean nothing by it – it’s just the hard, financial truth! Then there’s a slew of past due bank loans which I covered recently, and of course southern Europe leads the pack! Nothing has been done to restructure debt except to forgive loans in Greece. And that means Europe’s debt problem is just begging to erupt again. Make no doubt about it – the U.S. is going to have a major crisis, but nothing compared to what Europe is about to see with its strongest country, Germany, leading the way down in the years ahead. Let’s see how popular Merkel is then. NOW WATCH: 5 signs you're going to be extraordinarily successful
