Unlike Jeremy Corbyn, Keir Starmer has never described Hezbollah as his friends. But other than that, when it comes to Israel there is now little of consequence to differentiate them, says Stephen Pollard.

The "liberal left" has won the Spanish General & French municipal elections

category international | politics / elections | news report author Sunday March 09, 2008 20:05author by iosaf Report this post to the editors

3 exit polls in the Spanish state concur that Zapatero has won the General Election in that state with an absolute majority of both votes cast & seats won.

Over the Pyrennes in the French state, the electorate had its first opportunity to chastise Sarkozy, which exit polls appear to suggest has seen the left win 47% to a right wing 40%.

In addition the Spanish PSOE or socialist party has won the autonomous elections for the Andalucian parliament. It appears the Spanish like liberal modernity even if the onions cost a lot & are prepared to continue with the Zapatero project for another four years.

Naturally with polling booths closing less than an hour ago it is impossible to report more details yet. But I'll happilly append that later on complete with analysis at the emergence of a bipartisan culture in the Spanish state which might see the "united left" party of reformed communists lose their group status privilege in the Congress. Meanwhile the reaction from the French left wing press is already quite chuffed that months of disatisfaction with Sarkozy's politics & more crucially arrogant mix of private life & image has finally brought results to left-wing unity.
