Spain’s prime minister Pedro Sachez is a modern-day Angela Merkel, writes the GB News presenter

President Trump's migrant border rejects are now flooding Spain in their thousands - and their deluded socialist PM just granted 500,000 of them amnesty to stay forever.

Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez says regularising half a million illegals is an “act of justice” and compared today’s cohort of migrants to “our grandparents” who emigrated to the US and Europe in search of a better life.

It gives 500k illegals a one-year residence and work permit, which transitions to a standard residence after that.

The IMF says Spain’s ageing population means immigration can only be a positive thing for the country - and it directly links Spain’s recent semi-decent GDP growth to its migration wave.

But don’t mind me if I call Sanchez a civilisational terrorist.

In fact, Sanchez is doing the very thing the US State Department warned of last year when it sent diplomatic cabals to European embassies warning them of civilisational erasure if they didn’t secure their borders.

It’s suggested that around 80 per cent of Spain’s illegals are from Latin America - nations like Colombia, Peru, Venezuela, Honduras, Ecuador and Bolivia.

These same people who have been flooding Spain’s borders are predominantly the same people turned away at the US southern border since Trump took power in January 2025.

Zero illegal immigration in the United States since then, by the way. A nation that went from anywhere between ten and 25 million illegals invading their country under Joe Biden to ZERO overnight under Trump.

But back to Spain, PM Sanchez has been justifying his open-border experiment by whipping out the race card.

He said: “Throughout history, migration has been one of the great drivers of the development of nations, while hatred and xenophobia have been - and continue to be - the greatest destroyer of nations.”

What we have here is a delusional do-gooder, telling the Spanish people that because their country has been welcoming and hospitable in the past, and conquered faraway lands in a much different time, that they should smash open their borders willy-nilly right now. And the Spanish should shut up about it or get relegated to the realms of bigotry.

The man is a modern-day Angela Merkel.

It’s also ironic that he calls opposition to open borders “the greatest destroyer of nations.”

Data shows that reported sexual offences in Spain have dramatically increased since virtue-signaller-in-chief Sanchez took power in 2018.

There were around 13,700 recorded sexual offences in Spain the year he won election. That rocketed to 22,800 in 2024 - a 66 per cent increase.
