Rajoy and Cospedal deny the Kitchen to save Fernández Díaz, one of their own

Alen Craig3 months ago3 months ago05 mins

Former government president Mariano Rajoy and his right-hand woman in the Popular Party, María Dolores de Cospedal, are sticking to their guns. For them, the party’s former treasurer Luis Bárcenas was the traitor, who hid millions of euros in Switzerland and who deceived to make people believe he had compromising papers that he didn’t actually have. For both, the PP’s finance man is lying, and that’s why the so-called Operation Kitchen is an invention. There was “no illegal operation, political or police” against Bárcenas, much less one mounted by one of their own, former Interior Minister Jorge Fernández Díaz, whom Cospedal defined as a “straightforward and upright person who has suffered a lot.”

As a child, on a day like this, every year at school I would paint a photocopy with Sant Jordi, Saint George in my land. Every year I would change the color of the dragon so as not to get bored. Then I would write stories for the saint, destinies, love affairs. Years later I dreamed this

Finally, the day has come. After wanting to sign for so long. After so many times I had been told what Sant Jordi would be like. After so many days in which I had walked in previous editions as a reader… Today I found myself sitting in front of

The bad omens did not come true on “my first Sant Jordi as a signatory”. No passerby appeared with the original manuscript of their hypothetical book for me to take a look at. There were no children touching copies, and if there were, they were welcome. And

An excessive illusion

The first time I participated in Sant Jordi, I did so without expectations and with a certain feeling of smallness. I was 30 years old, had a published saga that my friends believed in more than I did, and a terrible vertigo that barely allowed me to look beyond my feet.

Kaleidoscope of emotions in the public square

Sant Jordi is a large public square, where philosophy should be, in the agora, where Socrates began it, with a hopeful message for people. And that’s why I’m grateful that after having won the Josep Pla award –with Anatomia de

“We are not the best in the world,” a green-eyed woman told me at the last minute, while I was signing her book. It’s my first Sant Jordi and tiredness is already falling on me, languidly, like rain, the weight of the dragon crushing my shoulders and eyes. I have lifted the

The long journey of Leo XIV has ended. An extensive 11-day tour, which touched four countries and had begun with the weight of the very serious accusations directed by Donald Trump against the American Pope for his anti-war positions. A burden from which the Pontiff tried to free himself immediately, responding to the president: “I am not afraid of the Trump administration,” but making it clear that he did not want to “debate” with him. A request reiterated in the following days to journalists who had interpreted some of his speeches as messages directed at the White House.
