Is Iglesias trying to prove something? Appearing in jeans and with a sweater?
It's his usual outfit when meeting with the King.

My guess is that with the socialists finally backing Rajoy, there will be a turning point in the political landscape like in other countries. The socialists will fade and PODEMOS and other parties will benefit.
Everything played out well for Mariano lol. Let's hope it's a stable government.
I don't think so but most people in Spain voted for MR, probably even more at a third election. So at some point the other parties had to decide what to do, portray themselves as block-outs / inflexible or bowing down to PP, it's a lose-lose situation people will hate them either way.
I suppose this paves the way for another big push for independence in Catalonia? Rajoy doesn't seem to understand what's going on there and that his intransigence only makes secession more likely, not less.
King Felipe received the President of the Congress of Deputies, Ms. Ana Pastor and signed the appointment of Mariano Rajoy as President of the Government this morning at Zarzuela Palace:

Rajoy will swear the Constitution tomorrow in the morning in Zarzuela, his ministers will do it on Friday, and the Opening of the Cortes should be on the next week.
Mariano Rajoy swears as President of the Government.

Now that there is a government in place in Spain, can we expect the Spanish state visit to the UK to occur anytime in 2017 ?
Is there a discussion in Spain about the use of the Bible and a crucifix at the sworn-in ceremony of ministers?
What happens when a minister is non-Christian or atheïst?
The State opening of the Courts will take place next Thursday, November 17th:
La sesión solemne de apertura de las Cortes se celebrará el 17 de noviembre
Will there be an election or will the Deputy PM simply be appointed by the king?
