Ok so GB is in a mess, however the Spanish government is decentralized and also in a mess with 17 autonomous regions and two autonomous cities, which have significant control over their own jurisdictions, making the central Spanish government relatively weak because each one has its own legislature and an executive branch.
As a result, Spain is deeply divided politically, with left-wing versus right-wing, new parties versus older ones, and federalists versus centralists vying it out for control of seats in the central government. The world financial crash of 2008 and spending cuts in Spain have increased division and fuelled drives in some autonomous regions for more independence.
