Europe Today: Sánchez calls snap election in Spain as French students protest again

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.

Our Paris correspondent, Estelle Nilsson-Julien, reports on the school protests in France, as students gear up for another major day on the streets, calling for better conditions, more teachers and more resources.

Interview with Austrian member of the European Parliament Lena Schilling, who is one of the about 50 MEPs targeted by sexual deepfakes. Over 100 MEPs have sent a letter to the European Commission for swift action so the AI-generated images can be removed.
