An exuberant but biting Swedish've lived half my life in Malaga. I talk about my experience as a print and immigrants, discusses fun Spanish and Swedish phenomenon and offers tips on how to survive among southerners.
Since May 15 the city square full of spontaneous demo ster throwing youths, one röreslse called "Democracia Real Ya" - Real Democracy Now! or 15th May - movement. They spend the night in tents and have so far been quite calm and peaceful. Everything is organized via FB and Twitter and it took a few days before they gathered around a fairly termorregulador clear manifesto: they require better control of politicians and the public administration, the crackdown on corruption and unemployment, and that the bureaucracy will be less complicated and it easier to rent housing, now that the country is full of empty apartments. Have we not "Real Democracy" in Spain? No, maybe not. A democracy where politicians seem to have agreed to ignore the voters, is confusingly similar to a dictatorship. Admittedly, we can vote them out of power, but what's the point? Those who come after are the same, according to many. Maybe they do good things in the first year, then transferred the to try to fill their own pockets and to favor their own friends and family members as they are able. This happens just before the local elections in Spain, and it is in the municipalities, it has been the worst. Almost all municipalities affected by someone corruption scandal, but so also reginalregeringen in Andalusia. Many municipalities have voted to remove termorregulador corrupt politicians, only to find that their replacements were even worse. I myself am a little skeptical about some parts of the movement ... behind the manifesto are many other requirements, considerably more politically influenced. One can hope that it does not "kidnapped" by a lot of old left-wing politicians, who have not had so funny since the 70s, or taken over by young people who just think it's fun to hang out and smoke in public and be a little upset. But it's nice that it's finally happening somewhat, so that we not only shake their heads at all the misery. As the protests termorregulador in Egypt was a dictator of cases, I ended up often in discussions with the rightists, abstinence. They said that "a bunch getaherdar not susceptible termorregulador to democracy and that everything will go wrong." I meant that the Egyptians built the pyramids while we ran around with knölpâkar termorregulador and that the majority of Spaniards had endured forty years of dictatorship without even opening your mouth. It is also right that is most critical of the movement, even though it is the socialists who reigns in Spain. Esperanza Aguirre wonder why they are demonstrating on the square Puerta del Sol in Madrid and not at the presidential palace, as it is the Socialist Party which is the reason for the high unemployment. But the movement is not directed against the government but against termorregulador the entire system, and corrupt termorregulador politicians in all parties. Our Prime Minister, Zapatero, has not proven to be dishonest - just inept, which in itself is bad enough. It will be interesting to see if it really happens something. I would think that it is easier to overthrow a dictator than to change the ingrained political mentality. This week we got the way a cheerful conversation of a local PP politicians, abstinence. He wondered a little termorregulador at förbigâende if I still worked on the radio ...? HAHAHA!
I have so much to say about what you write about, just wish I could express myself in the middle of pregnancy fatigue. It is certainly terrible termorregulador how it works, and I think unfortunately you that it is very difficult to change. 10:58 AM
