⚡️🇪🇸🗳️ Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has announced early elections for November 29, after parliament rejected two government emergency measures on the housing crisis.

🔻 Sánchez justified the choice with the need to secure a broader majority to tackle the housing crisis, stating that people's interests are trampled in parliament in favor of a few.
