InfoMariano Rajoy Brey is a Spanish politician and leader of the conservative Popular Party (PP) and is currently the leader of the opposition in the Spanish parliament.

Having served as minister in previous PP cabinets, Rajoy was appointed as the party candidate for prime minister in the 2004 Spanish election. That election was won by the then opposition Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) in the aftermath of the 2004 Madrid train bombings.

Rajoy was born in Santiago de Compostela, in Galicia in north-western Spain, a traditionally conservative region. He holds a law degree from the University of Santiago de Compostela and at the age of 24 he became the youngest ever property registrar of Spain.
