Morale is in great shape. That’s the outlook of Spain’s opposition People’s Party (PP) in response to this Monday’s surprise call of a snap general election in the country for July 23rd, as leader Alberto Núñez Feijóo has explained. 

After the unmitigated victory in the municipal and regional elections on Sunday, the PP head was bullish about “bringing the political cycle to an end” on July 23rd, taking into account “the very forceful message about the direction of the country” which, in his opinion, Spanish voters gave “with a clear victory for the PP.”
