Inside Spain's far-right battle ground: 'When Franco was alive, it was safer'

- Vox became the first far-right party to win more than a single seat in Spain's parliament since the Franco era when it won 24 in the general election. Last week, it fought its first mayoral campaign in El Ejido, a town in Andalucía with a population of 90,000 people, 30% of whom are migrants. Many of them work in the 150 square miles of greenhouses that surround the town. We follow the campaign and talk to Spaniards and migrants to find out why this socialist stronghold of 40 years is turning to the right.

The fact that owning a flag is seen as unusual is weird to me
Americans are very patriotic compared to Europe
In Spain owning a flag it's fine, what it's not seen right are vox supporters
@@angelmatesmolan todo el que lleve la bandera de España es un facha para vosotros

If this was meant to degrade Vox it didn’t do an amazing job.
He played his anthem and complained about unlimited immigration into his country. In the gaurdians eyes he might as well be Hitler.
@@johnprice9072 it wasn't meant to degrade or defend vox, it is a diary, a look into a political battleground removed from opinions. It's raw and documents a reality removed from what something like the sun, fox or cnn would have shown
@@nromk Ah yes that's why they call it a "far-right battleground"
@@theotheagendashill818 But vox is far-right as far as I’m aware. So that is a factual statement, not an opinion.

@@Awikenano1 that's not true, whoever reads you isn't going to research and is going to believe you. Franco freed the prisoners during the 50's, those who didn't commit crimes during the 2nd Republic and some even entered politics.

If it's Spain, it's right wing. If it's Britain or America, it's mainstream.
Fun fact: Youth unemployment in Spain is at 40%, work is needed for their own people
Fight for your country. I have family out there. Half Spanish half Swede by blood Spain is a beautiful country. Stopping the influx of migrants will help we have this problem in the US as well
Same for Greece
It is the same debate everywhere. The real question you have to be asking your self is why do migrants come over. They aren’t surviving on thin air. They are being employed either illegally in the black market economy or being employed legally in very low paying back breaking jobs. Either or it is mostly locals who are providing that employment. Someone is benefitting massively from this human trade. It is Spain itself that is providing the supply of jobs otherwise they wouldn’t come.
We aren´t paid enough because all the money is going to the politicians pocket and to help the illegal inmigrants
I agree that imigration needs to be controled but I dont think its the reason why there are so many job-less people. If you want to solve the unemployment crisis in Spain we have to make our country more business friendly, lower taxes and the minimum wage and investors will come to Spain just like moths flock towards light, as long as there´s a stable uncorrupt government people will invest.
Driving through town with a huge unapologetic flag blaring the music from the old pre-neoliberal regime is incredibly based.
Exactly my thoughts. I lost count of how many times I said based during this video.

Its the same in the uk, every other nation in the uk can have a flag up but werent not allowed to have a english flag up because its “offensive” weve lost our identity.
If you need to rely on doing performative showmanship of the flag to keep your national identity, then I'm sorry to inform you that your sense of national identity is pretty feeble to begin with.
A nation is more than a flag, a territory and a race, but if your brain is too smooth to grasp that concept then I'm afraid there's nothing else I can do for you.
@@granudisimo a nation is literally a people that’s the term origin bonded by blood. A flag is just a symbol for the people. The fact that people like you are so offended by this is because you are upset by what it symbolises. You want to destroy the nation,
@@granudisimoDo you also have a problem with LGBTP+ doing performative showmanship by waving their flag?
@@rojiblanco299 Except that's not a national identity, it's a decades long, political resistance and civil rights movement.
Not even remotely comparable, not to mention that the rainbow flag is an international symbol that's the same, regardless of the country it's being waved.
Flags aren't performative themselves including country flags, but they both can be used performatively, like patriotic capitalist right wingers moving their factories to the third world, and corporations putting the rainbow flag while still lobbying for homophobic politicians that though homophobic, they also lower their taxes...
You got a lot to learn on basic political science if you wanna have a real conversation about how society and its symbols work.
"No one gives me anything, only my work gives me something"
I think the migrant saying this like it's a bad thing sums up a lot of the problem.
Maybe because they're dependent on their job to survive while the state does nothing?

That was an error. If he entered he could've saved Europe from the Russians and the Anglo-Saxons.
@@lucasgrey9794 Considering Spain had just emerged from a civil war, and heavily relied upon American crop imports, a Spanish entry into the war would be quite like Italy’s performance.

@@lucasgrey9794 The Anglo-Saxons are long long gone, they haven't existed for centuries.
I imagine what kind of "conservatives" those were if they are not with Vox, they must be the corporate liberals.
what?
The Army of Africa was to play a key part during the Spanish Civil War of 1936-39. Along with other units in the Spanish Army, the Army of Africa rose against the Second Spanish Republic and took part in the Spanish coup of July 1936 on the side of the Nacionales. On 18 July 1936, General Francisco Franco assumed the supreme command over this force.
And now the descendants of those who fought on the side of Franco’s Nacionales want to deport the descendants of the Army of Africa. Do you realise how fickle politics is? There is no loyalty afforded to anyone. Everyone defends their own self interest. That Army of Africa were just pawns in someone else’s battle. Do you honestly think that people are going to value Africans and what their descendants did the instant their numbers rise above a certain percentage of the population? Of course not!
Sorry, that last use of the word “descendants” should have been ancestors.
Spain for the Spanish 1st..
No accountability for the destruction of a culture at hands of a foreign plague…it’s the SPANISH that need to change to meet the needs of the other…that’s the message people hear and we’re surprised that they express adoration for Franco? Why?
Viva España

@Jericho Jezza Not quite. Vox is voted usually by the working class and the upper class.

@Matteo Viatte trump is not like Franco at least in some ideals, and how they act. trump isn't a competent leader, I believe we need a Franco in the U.S but trump is definitely not the person to do the job, has to be a person who shows respect for all nationalities, knows how to improve and run the government, and focus more on the people. issue is people are going too far left and too far right and both criticize all of their thoughts even though there are great ideals on both sides of the spectrum.

@To Err is Huma It makes perfect sense - it's hypocritical. Poor Spanish people with few opportunties are migrating in droves just like these poor Moroccans for similar reasons.
The youth unemployment you speak of wasn't caused by migrants (who are doing the jobs Spaniards won't do like work in greenhouses in Almería, a massive source of revenue for the Spanish economy), it is the consequence of an international financial crisis that affected many countries apart from Spain, the lack of regulation of the real estate and banking sectors and the governing of successive shitey, corrupt governments on both the left and the right who ran their country into the ground. Blaming poor foreigners is the lazy, anti-intellectual way out. VOX play on people's ignorance and desire to find an easy escape goat.

@percival archibald So according to you, it depends on the country you migrate to that makes you an expat or an immigrant?
