Overall ethical score
+27.33
Reasoned summary
Sánchez has produced meaningful social and labour benefits within a democratic framework. Those gains are reduced by serious failures to protect migrants and ensure transparent accountability for state surveillance and border conduct.
This assessment presents six separate ethical dimensions rather than one overall moral score. Each result must be read with its evidence, plausible range, confidence, disputes, exclusions, severe-harm findings and sources.
Most significant negative evidence
The score is reduced by failures of accountability concerning Melilla, covert surveillance and migration enforcement, together with divisive political bargaining.
