12:35 pm
a sitting prime minister in a vote of no confidence even the heads of this vote that pretty much ended up turning into a formality mariano rajoy seemed to concede defeat he arrived very late to the chamber he cast a vote himself what happens next well we're entering into uncharted territory as we heard there from those speaker of the house the king will need to be informed there are a number of formalities that need to be carried out really going forward now. it looks as if the leader of the socialist party will now be the next prime minister of spain the forty six four forty six year old former economics professor rose quickly through the ranks of the socialists a party he actually resigned as an m.p. a year and a half ago but his remains the secretary general of. those remain a formidable force with them socialist movement here in spain the table the motion of no confidence only a week ago and within
12:36 pm
a matter of days spain's political landscape has been turned on its head and leave before we get to know what the some minority socialist government as it's expected to be will mean for the country remind us how we've got here and those very serious allegations convictions rather of corruption against people linked to people in the now former ruling people's party of money on it a whore and those linked to the whore that led to this. no confidence motion. those roy they were very serious corruption allegations that mariano hoyer and the center right people's party have really struggled to shake off and eventually now fail to do so completely corruption convictions were handed down to twenty nine senior members of the people's party some of whom were very close to mariano rajoy indeed it all relates to campaigning in the late one nine hundred ninety s. and early two thousand louise barr sandusky who was the treasurer of the people's
12:37 pm
party a close ally of marianna boy was sentenced earlier this week on monday to thirty three years in jail fined fifty one million dollars the court also ruled that the people's party would have to pay back two hundred eighty five thousand dollars as a result of financially benefiting from some of those these ill gotten gains mariano rajoy is remain defiant he says that none of his m.p.'s all government ministers have anything to do with this corruption he points the finger firmly at the opposition first to seizing the moment as it were to unseat him to undermine his government and it's very much marianna always own personal perspective spain will now be much worse off now that or a socialist leader will be at the helm. and watch what a socialist leader petro sanctions being at the helm mean for the country me especially because this is expected to be a minority government. yeah well let's expect a short honeymoon period but it's going to be back to work and the long list of
12:38 pm
challenges that he inherits it's very very probably daunting for the leader going forward we're seeing of course struggles still going on rumbling on and catalonia there are still concerns about the stability of the the spanish economy going forward as well and in the short run how he exactly gets the support he needs in parliament is going to going to be one of the most pressing and challenging questions he's going to have to form political alliances and allegiances with political parties that may not necessarily be natural bedfellows we're talking about nationalistic catalonia or the basque country we're talking about possibly also about some hardline independent stuff parties joining a coalition as well it's not going to be easy but right now when it comes to spain's political short term future it has meant a real seismic shake up of the political landscape here in spain now the return of
12:39 pm
the socialist party again immediately going forward what we're going to really see is the formation of a government how quickly that happens we have no idea right now who would take some time it could mean that the sitting m.p.'s within the people's party within the party continue on in an interim role all of that though needs to be decided in the coming hours and days stay with us we are going to come back to you for more on what next for spain but let's look at the political rise and for of money on it a horn now pizza shop has more. mariano rajoy is known as spain's crisis manager and never with those talents more sorely needed when he's people's party came to power in its third attempt in two thousand and eleven as a sixty three year old political veteran it was an election won convincingly on a promise to tackle. the fallout from the two thousand and eight economic crisis but roy's austerity measures backed by the e.u.
12:40 pm
approved tough medicine and brought the people out onto the streets the salaries of public workers were frozen rent assistance for young people abolished income tax up and pensions down but it steered spain back to growth. over the last two years spain has been rocked by the territorial crisis over catalonia. despite the protests clamping down hard on the separatist movement blocked it from seceding after catalonia declared independence. but roy safe pair of hands fumbled the latest scandal last week as more than two dozen business people including his party's former treasurer were sentenced on charges of corruption afterwards the socialist party put forward a motion to vote him from office is that he's worth anything. are you going to resign mr roy are you going to keep on clinging to the position weakening democracy and weakening the quality of the government in the end these were charges he could
12:41 pm
no longer answer opening the way for yet another set of elections and possibly another vulnerable government to shop al-jazeera. let's go back to our correspondent in the back and now he is joining us live from the capital madrid so naïve could what's happened today need to more elections in spain. hypothetically yes it could indeed i don't think the specter of elections is entirely gone away it would probably need to happen next is for pedro sanchez when he's formally. goes through the process of becoming prime minister he could end up having to go she has a dialogue with some of the other political parties we know that see other than us the center right party and the demos the leftist party of keen for that to happen particularly i have to say other than argue in the polls at the moment of being coming out on top they're really pushing for elections later down the line but it's
12:42 pm
absolutely going to be. very sanchez's main goal to hold on to power for as long as possible as he said. earlier on in the program oh this will be a minority government he's going to have to form alliances the legion says with people that may not necessarily be a political bedfellows with the socialist and that could be a huge challenge going forward the concern is that it could well lead to greater political instability political stalemate here in congress as well worst case scenario mariano rajoy shortly before this vote spoke frequently about a frankenstein's monster of a coalition going forward that he believed would not be go good for the country in the future and they've you know given that sanchez does have to form alliances where. with cattle and with the basque nationalists an order to get the majority needed to support a whore what could have being prime minister mean for those nationalist movements
12:43 pm
for and boss close friends. mean much by way of any great will seismic change the. securely for the hopes of cattle on independence in that region very few sympathetic for you see is here in madrid towards the independence movement as a whole the sheer fact that the catalan policies to independence parties backers of this vote of no confidence is largely down to the fact that they want to take revenge against marianna old boy who they see as being directly responsible for the violent crackdown on protesters. just ahead of the referendum late last year. anything in their eyes that so politically causes more chaos here in madrid is going to be good for them i don't think it means anything by way of greater sympathy for what they're trying to achieve politically going forward or what may thank you very much for that for now that is leave barca with the very
