THE SPANISH TRAIN TRAGEDY 5

Apologies, the mourning period will be 7, not 5 days.

Taking us past the point when Rajoy was going to appear in parliament to answer the corruption accusations levelled against him.

Don't know how this squares with the BBC's announcement just now that Rajoy has said there'll be 3 days of 'official mourning'. Perhaps the latter is national, whereas the 7 days is regional.
