Are you likely to be in
Spain on Feb 14 and looking for a romantic place to spend the
day/night? The Local has some tips for you here.
And here's The Local again with more specific info on the Asturian capital of Oviedo, to the loveliness of which I can attest.
And here's their recipe
for a perfect Spanish tortilla. Not to be confused with that
different animal, the Mexican tortilla. Cue hundreds of comments from
angry Spanish readers of The Local about the wrongness of their
suggestion
One of Spain's lengthy
corruption trials is finally coming to an end, with some long jail
sentences. Click here for details. Given how much judges are involved
in pre-trial investigations in Spain I 'm wondering whether this
helps to explain how inadequate judicial resources are and how slow
the wheels of justice turn there. This case – labelled Gürtel -
had been under investigation for more than 6 years before getting to
court.
Still on the corruption
theme . . Thirteen Andalusian health officials have been arrested
following a fraud valued at around 250,000€. The investigations
concentrate on hospitals in Cádiz.
Does Spain really
adhere to the paramount EU principle of freedom of people movement?
No more than any other EU member, if this account is truly
representative. As I suspect it is.
So, is the Trump gang
out to destroy the euro and the EU in the interests of making America
great again? Quite possibly. Click here for the evidence.
Nutters' Corner: I will
be featuring here the comments of US Evangelists on Donald Trump:-
- Donald Trump has removed the “Spirit of Witchcraft” from the White House
- See you in court, the security of our nation is at stake. Oh, no. That's Trump addressing a federal court, as if it had nothing to do with the application of law in the USA.
