Rajoy is already saying goodbye

The Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy has already said goodbye on Friday, although a vote on a vote of no confidence against him still had to take place.

'I thank all Spaniards for their support. Good luck, 'said the prosecuted prime minister just before the vote would be held. He congratulated the leader of the socialists Pedro Sanchez, who is likely to succeed him as prime minister.

A majority of the Spanish Parliament is expected to vote for the motion.
