Isabel Diaz Ayuso, confirmed at the helm of the Madrid Region
Elections in the Madrid region of Spain, leading to a beating for the PSOE and for the traditional left in general. A new left-wing ecologist formation is born, Vox continues to grow and Podemos's left stops, with Paolo Iglesias who decides to leave the leadership of the formation. President Isalbel Diaz Ayuso, who followed a policy of openness against Covid-19, is confirmed at the helm of the region

The left is defeated by this round. and, as we have already said, Paolo Iglesias of “Unidos Podemos” resigned recognizing that his training “does not add anything to the left”.
Madrid has also maintained a very “Aperturista” policy and this has benefited the PP, also because the Spanish capital has suffered less from the economic and tourism crisis than the rest of the country. Now the electorate rewards this choice, which should make the Italian “Chiusuristi” think. Errors are paid for by voting.
