Re: protests in spain

If you do not understand the Spanish culture I think the post is pointless.

Re: protests in spain

This situation was highlighted by a member back in May(I think it was MargaretR).........the news is out there if y ou want to seek it out.
Personally, I want to hear about what is going on in my own country.
When international headlines force out of the news what is going on here....I wonder what bad news in the UK is being buried.
Now if I lived in Spain and there was a news blackout then that would be of more interest.

There you go.

I think perhaps the world was more concerned with what was going on in the middle east.

Just more semi political stirring from north of the border....not really interested in the issues causing the unrest.
