Christopher Howse: A Pilgrim in Spain
Spanish Politics- This writer thinks Spain has a controversial approach to ‘justice’, and that ‘The whole of Spanish society is moving towards a more regressive policy, not only on the right-wing but also on the progressive left. Against which, Basque society, he says, is forced to react. Worrying.
- There was a report a month or 2 ago about someone being charged for ice. The Bar owner claimed it'd been a joke. But had it? . . .
