Pedro Sánchez is gambling on a snap election on 29 November, after Congress rejected his housing decrees and tens of thousands protested. In France, students take to the streets again over overcrowded classes and teacher shortages, while MEPs debate Europe's housing crisis and AI deepfakes.

On today's show:

Our Europe Editor, Maria Tadeo, breaks down why Sánchez has called a snap election for 29 November. The vote comes amid growing anger over soaring rents and housing costs, and ongoing scrutiny over the crisis in Ceuta.
