Very proud of my host nation and the Spanish government. In a time of creeping far right populism they have been making great reforms, praising the benefits of immigration, and according to preliminary official data for 2024, Spain’s GDP grew by 3.2%, almost five times the eurozone average
A message from Spain's left-wing government to the UK: take heart from our success on workers' rights. Raising living standards is the key to combating the far right.

CAT ADVISORY: Temperatures in the UK could drop to -10c tonight. All cats should IMMEDIATELY find the warmest spot in the house and stay there. Tell humans to bring you snacks and to keep the second warmest spot free in case you want a change of scenery.

Progressive taxation is the cure, when you are paying 99% tax, you will think what is the point of trying to get more.
