Gunned down by Joe Gerrard POLICE were tracing two suspects yesterday (Wednesday) after a Dutch man was shot dead while eating at a well-known restaurant in Torremolinos on Saturday. Officers said one of the suspects shot Hamza Ziana in the head and abdomen while he was eating. The shooter fled with an accomplice in a white van while Ziana died hours after being taken to Malaga Regional Hospital, according to emergency services. Police said Ziani, 33, originally from Utrecht in the Netherlands, was also the man who had been charged in connection with explosives found on a Marbella construction site in September. Officers raided Ziana’s house after he was arrested and found high-end cars, cash, a machine gun, three pistols and ammunition which they said belonged to his gang. Officials suspect the killing was a settling of scores in disputes between rival drugs gangs that have raged on the Costa del

Crime call
TRADE UNIONS representing Costa del Sol police officers have called for reinforcements and more resources to tackle a wave of violent crime. The unions, which represent Judicial and National Police officers, claimed current staff and equipment levels could not tackle the shootings, stabbings and bomb threats seen in the region this year. The call comes as the Spanish government’s representative in Malaga Province said authorities had no plans to enact special measures for crime. The Police Justice Union (JUPOL) union said forces in the Costa del Sol had been short of staff for several years. “It is getting impossible to cover the gaps

left by retiring officers. Before the shortage crisis about 2,000 officers were joining us from the Avila training school every year and although we are still getting new recruits we are far from those figures,” a spokesperson for the union said. A Unified Police Union (SUP) official said they had warned authorities about reinforcements that would be needed to tackle organised crime in 2004. “In addition to resources, it is necessary to change the model of policing,” the official added. Maria Gamez, the Spanish government’s representative in Malaga Province, said police officers were working with “enormous efficiency” with the resources they already had. “The means are adjusted to the problems we have in the province,” Gamez said.
Ziana’s death believe the rivalry between different drugs gangs has spilled onto the Costa del Sol, claiming the life of the 33-yearold and several others this year. Officers are probing the burning of a car in Puerto Banus last August for possible links to Ziana’s death, with the four people inside said to have been Dutch nationals. That investigation and the one into the Torremolinos shooting continue.

Catalan trial set Independence probe wraps up SPAIN’S Supreme Court is set to try 18 leading pro-Catalan independence figures early next year after announcing its investigation into last year’s secession referendum and declaration was now complete. The court said last week 18 of the accused, including Cataluña’s former Vice President Oriol Junqueras, would stand trial on rebellion and disobedience charges in 2019. They have also been charged with misappropriation of public money to stage the referendum. The court’s announcement comes as both Spain’s Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister suggested last week the charge of rebellion was not appropriate for the case. The 18 people set to go on trial include Junqueras and former Cataluña Generalitat officials Joaqium Forn, Jordi Turull and Raul Romeva. The ex-speaker of the Catalan Parliament Carme Forcadell is also due to appear before the court. Nine of the 18
HEARING DUE: Junqueras (inset) is among those charged over last year’s vote. accused remain in custody ahead of the trial. The court has ruled the 18 accused and seven others, including former Catalan President Carles Puigdemont, played an ‘essential’ role in staging
the independence referendum and declaration in October 2017. Spain’s Constitutional Court ruled prior to the vote that holding it would be illegal. Puigdemont and others remain abroad after arrest warrants were is-
sued for them in the wake of the referendum. Prosecution and defence teams are now set to make their submissions to the court, including requests for sentences. The charge of rebellion carries a jail sentence of up to 30 years. The court said the trial would likely last for three months, with a ruling not due until June. The news comes as Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez and his deputy Carmen Calvo both implied the charge of rebellion may not apply. Both cited historic parliamentary proceedings and said rebellion charges should only be used in cases involving an attempted overthrow of the state by armed force. Their comments came after Pablo Casado, leader of the opposition conservative Partido Popular (PP), accused Sanchez of aiding a ‘coup d’etat’ by trying to negotiate with Cataluña’s current pro-independence administration.

PASSED ON: Cemeteries fill with flowers on All Saints’ Day PEOPLE from across Spain are marking All Saints’ Day today (Thursday), a holiday that sees many take time to honour and respect the dead. Families traditionally gather in cemeteries and lay flowers at the graves of loved ones on All Saints’ Day (Dia de Todos los Santos in Spanish). Cemeteries become filled with colour as a result of people placing the bouquets to help keep the memo-

Scenes of flowers in cemeteries also feature in popular culture, such as in the 2006 film Volver. Churches also hold special masses to mark the day in memory of all those who have passed away.

Firms interested in supplying the kit have until tomorrow (Friday) to subject their bids for the contract. Marbella officials said the winning
company would be required to provide vests that can protect against knives as well as bullets. They will also have to supply tailored fittings for both male and female officers, according to the terms of the contract. The winning company will have to supply officers with samples of the vests so their design and comfort can be tested. The design will need to be practical and allow for movement, the contract stated.

HOTTING UP: Spain could be drier and warmer by 2050.
Climate forecast RISING heat, more forest fires, less rain and animal extinction could be in store for Spain by 2050 due to climate change, according to a new study. The Observatory of Sustainability has released its forecasts for the years leading up to 2100. Their report claimed Spain could warm by 2.6 degrees by 2050 in the worst case scenario of the country failing to move away from fossil fuels and slash emissions. The study, based on government data, found that in the worst case RCP8.5 scenario Spain would warm by 2.6 degrees 50 years before average global temperatures reach that level. The forecast follows data last week which showed that emissions in Spain rose by 4.4 per cent from 2016 to 2017. The authors of the report said that percentage showed the country had not moved away from fossil fuels, making their worst case scenario more likely. The Observatory’s Climate Change in Spain report, which used the CCSM4 prediction model to produce its findings, claimed rainfall levels would drop if temperatures warmed by 2.6 degrees. The effects would be seen across the coun-
try except in the western Canary Islands, Navarra and the Valencia region would see less rain. Flooding would also be more likely in those areas because rainfall would not be distributed evenly throughout the year. The report said rain would become ‘scarce’ in northwest Spain, a region which currently has a temperate climate compared to much of the country. Galicia, Lugo and Ourense could see reductions of 500 millimetres per year, half their current levels of annual rainfall. They could come to resemble how southern Spain looks today rather than the current ‘Green Spain’ landscapes they are known for. The report also found Spain would see temperatures rise well above two degrees by 2050, with the only exception being A Coruña, the Balearic and Canary Islands. The regions of Castilla-La Mancha, Extremadura and parts of Andalucia would be hit hardest by rising temperatures. More wildfires and the extinction of species could follow the rise, the Observatory said. It added temperatures last September had peaked at 1.4 degrees above average.

Debt decrease
OUR VIEW End of austerity perhaps THE 2018 UK budget may or may not be to everyone’s taste but according to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, repeating the statement made by the Prime Minister, the end of austerity is in sight. Good news if true but one has to remember that just last Sunday he explained that if a no-deal Brexit goes ahead then he will have to produce a new emergency budget which will almost certainly be more stringent than the current one. The good news for the government was that taxes collected have been higher than forecast which means that the Chancellor has more money to play with than expected but due to a possible worry about the future he has put £500 million (€560 million) to one side in case of Brexit problems. The sad fact is that in reality, the Conservative government is not in control of the countries destiny as the Northern Irish DUP minority supporters could bring the government down almost at a stroke and although Mrs May says that the Brexit deal is 95 per cent there, it’s the 5 per cent that could cause a major problem. At the end of the day, there are 27 countries who also have to agree the deal and that could also be more difficult than hoped for, especially as the Irish border is going to be a difficult problem to resolve to the satisfaction of all parties. Despite more rhetoric from the new leader of the Partido Popular, Spain is unlikely to cause problems over Gibraltar but there is still a long way to go before any final agreement can be reached with the EU.

MAKING A SPLASH: Dolphins are often seen on the Costa del Sol.
Whale of a time By Tom Woods IN the last three years scientists at OceanSea have registered up to 651 sightings of whales and dolphins on the Costa del Sol, particularly in Fuengirola and Benalmadena. Other cetaceans which need special protection have also been seen, including loggerhead turtles and porpoises. The Alboran Sea is an important area for marine mammals and has been earmarked for
protection by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Since 2015, OceanSea has carried out numerous studies into the quantity and location of cetaceans off the south coast, in collaboration with the tourist cruise company Costasol Cruceros. The most common species found by far was the bottlenose dolphin followed by the common dolphin, fin whale, loggerhead turtle, striped dolphin and the porpoise.

The events occurred when the woman, who was carrying her son in a baby carrier, crossed the security line and threatened security guards with scissors. Guardia Civil officers managed to snatch the scissors from the woman, who was very upset and aggressive, ignoring the instructions of the police and shouting to attract the attention of other passengers in the terminal. Despite warnings from the police that she should calm down, she became increasingly aggressive and hugged her baby very hard against her chest, threatening to kill him.

ENVOY CHANGE: Elliot (inset) is set to take over from Manley next year. BRITAIN has appointed a new ambassador to Spain after announcing that the current envoy will step down during summer next year. Hugh Elliot, who has worked at the British government’s Department for Exiting the European Union, will take over from Simon Manley next year. Elliot said on Twitter: “It will be a pleasure to represent
Britain in Spain and when I take over next summer.” Manley said: “Elliot is a great friend and colleague who will be a great ambassador for our country.” Elliot has previously worked for the Foreign Office in its Europe and Communications departments. He has also worked in Paris, Buenos Aires and for the Anglo American mining company.
Manley has served as Britain’s ambassador to Spain since October 2013. He joined the Foreign Office in 1990 and acted as an envoy for Britain at the United Nations from 1993 to 1998 and worked on Yugoslavia’s break up. He was also posted to the Council of the EU from 1998 to 2002 and the European Commission in 2003.
Suspected racial attack A SPANISH woman was left bleeding above the eye after being punched in the face in a suspected racist attack on a London train. She was allegedly assaulted after her male assailant heard her speaking Spanish during a phone call on the packed Overground line. According to British press, witnesses said he hurled abuse at the woman between Dalston Kingsland
and Canonbury during rush hour last week. An engineer who was travelling on the train, reportedly saw the man approach his ‘victim’ violently before shouting and swearing at her to speak in English, screaming that because she is in England, she ‘shouldn’t speak other languages.’ The lady was apparently in so much shock she could-
n’t respond in English and continued talking in Spanish, before he allegedly punched her in the face. Somebody else on the train is believed to have pressed the emergency stop, but the attacker just ‘walked off.’ A 56-year-old man was later arrested on suspicion of racially aggravated bodily harm by British Transport Police.

Man took selfie with bodies WARNING: ‘No-deal’ Brexit could see thousands, millions of passengers grounded.
Collapse of flights fears FLIGHTS between the UK and Spain could fall by 95 per cent if no Brexit deal is agreed, according to a major airline industry association. The International Air Transport Association (IATA), which represents 290 airlines around the world, claims tourists and businesses could be significantly affected in a ‘no-deal’ scenario. IATA fears flights between Spain and the UK in particular would suffer due to the size of both the tourism and trade markets
shared between the two countries. According to its statistics there are currently 5,052 flights every week between Spain and Britain. The Director General and Chief Executive of IATA, Alexandre de Juniac, has warned a ‘no-deal’ could see ‘thousands, millions of passengers’ grounded without flights in the immediate aftermath of Brexit when the UK officially leaves on March 29, 2019. Alexandre de Juniac has predicted that if
no deal is reached: “It will be a nightmare in the European and UK airports.” This is due to the complex nature of the regulations framework surrounding air travel between nations. This regulations framework considers safety, security and immigration controls. However, the UK’s Civil Aviation Authority and the EU have negotiated a ‘bare bones’ agreement to ensure that a minimal level of service can be provided after March 29.
A MAN accused of killing his aunt, uncle and their children aged one and four, posed for a selfie with their dismembered bodies, a court has heard. According to reports Brazilian Patrick Nogueira had chopped up the bodies and packed them into rubbish bags. A witness at his trial in Guadalajara, Madrid, said he saw gruesome images taken by the 19-year-old on his mobile phone. Prosecutors told the court that Nogueira stabbed the family to death before cutting up their bodies with tree pruning shears. In an attempt to hide the crime he then put his victims in rubbish sacks. It has been reported that he admits the killings, but argues he is mentally disturbed and alcoholic. Prosecutors maintain he knew exactly what he was doing, saying he is a psychopath who planned the gruesome events to such an extent that he took the rubbish bags with him. They added that Nogueira had sent a friend in Brazil a series of WhatsApp messages about the killings along with photos of the bodies during and after the killings. About a month later neighbours complained of a bad smell coming from the house, where authorities then found the bags with the bodies. Nogueira was arrested in 2016 and has been awaiting trial since.

CLUB AXED: Final holiday flight from UK to Spain left on October 27.
No more Club 18-30 holidays IT’S the end of an era as the last ever Club 18-30 holidaymakers travelled from
the UK to Spain. Travel giant Thomas Cook has axed the brand with the final group of revellers enjoying a three-night all-inclusive holiday at the BH Mallorca Hotel in Magaluf. The final flight - a sell out - left Manchester on October 27. Club 18-30 holidays once promised sun, sea and lots of booze away from the watchful eye of parents. But in recent years sales have dwindled, even though the permitted age range was widened to 17 to 35. The company was set up in 1968 by the Horizon Group to offer package holidays targeted at young singles and couples to travel without families or children. In 1995, the company’s billboard advertising ruffled feathers with the Advertising Standards Agency, being the second most complained-about firm of that year. The ads, designed by Saatchi & Saatchi included ‘Beaver Espana,’ ‘Be up at the crack of Dawn... or Julie... or...’ and ‘It’s not all sex, sex, sex. There’s a bit of sun and sea as well.’ But tour operator chief Ingo Burmester said: “We are increasingly focused on
our core own-brand hotel portfolio and feel that the Club 18-30 brand no longer fits in with our wider programme. “Having taken the summer to explore our options we have, in the absence of a viable alternative that makes sense for Thomas Cook or the brand, decided that Club 18-30 will close at the end of this season.” The tour operator now offers younger travellers the chance to ‘escape the ordinary’ with its more upmarket Cook’s Club offering a ‘new generation of hotels for a new generation of travellers’ with ‘a melting pot of culture, textures and flavours that creates a casually cool paradise where everyone is welcome.’ Thomas Cook say: “Times have changed.

Charity boss faces probe by Tara Rippin A DOG charity chief in Spain is being investigated amid claims he benefited from almost a quarter of a million euros in donations from the UK. Peter Singh of The Dog You Need has reportedly received at least €230,000 from Brits to save abused animals from miserable lives or death. But UK activists say a refuge he claimed to be funding with the cash was actually a house he owned in Pinoso near Alicante, where animals were kept in cramped conditions. According to press reports, Spanish police ordered Singh and wife Jean Magill to move out for breaking animal care law, but he is said to have taken the dogs to a nearby scrubland where he was confronted by the activists. They became suspicious over alleged claims by Singh that he had taken in two dogs who had apparently been ‘sexually abused,’ because psychic ‘animal communicators’ had told him so. The Charity Commission is reportedly investigating the charity chief after receiving concerns from the public, and a ‘regulatory compliance case’ is said to be open. Singh told a UK national newspaper that ‘money we get is spent appropriately, for example €54,000 on vets’ fees in one year, adding that ‘these trolls have constantly made false complaints that I’m an animal hoarder’. He questioned this in light of the fact 550 animals have been rescued and 525 rehomed.

Sex case soldier dismissed ONE of the members of the infamous La Manada (the wolf pack) gang who sexually abused a young woman has been kicked out of the Spanish army. Alfonso Jesús Cabezuelo is one of a group of five friends who were convicted of abusing the woman at the 2016 Running of the Bulls fiestas in Pamplona. The case has been a cause célèbre in Spain after they were convicted of the lesser charge of sexual abuse rather than sexual assault, which would have attracted lengthier sentences. The latter category includes rape and the prosecutor had asked in the original trial for a sentence of 18 years for each of the gang. Instead they were sentenced to nine years each - a judgement that attracted chants of ‘it’s not abuse, it’s rape’ from crowds outside the courthouse. The case has since moved on to the Supreme Court for a final ruling, with the members of the gang still free. Cabezuelo, 30, had remained

BREXIT BRIEF
Brexit checklist A CITIZENSHIP lawyer has created a checklist ahead of Britain leaving the European Union (EU). Margaret Hauschild Rey, a Madrid-based lawyer who wrote the list for a national Spanish newspaper, said she had been receiving Brexit questions from expatriates ‘constantly.’ Hauschild Rey added the list could not cover everything at this stage, but said the following was recommended. Expatriates should ensure that their residency cards say: ‘Residente comunitario con character permanente’ (permanent EU resident). They should also register with their local town hall’s padron and ask for a Certificado de Empadronamiento to confirm their residency status. Expatriates should register their property if they have not already done so. They should also make sure marriage and birth certificates are in order if they have a Spanish spouse and/or children. Hauschild Rey said expatriates could ask any association or club they are a member of to provide proof of them joining. They should also request their Vida Laboral from Social Security if they have worked or are working. British driving licences should be swapped as soon as possible. Wills should be drawn up according to whether inheritances should be handled under Spanish or British law, the lawyer said.

Mammoth migrant rescue mission THE bodies of two children were pulled from the Mediterranean, as more than 450 migrants attempted to reach Spain from Morocco in less than 72 hours. Spanish Maritime Services confirmed on Sunday that 465 people were rescued from eight boats between Friday morning and Sunday evening, the vast majority of whom were plucked from the coasts off the region of Murcia. A further 16 migrants were reported missing after one of the boats capsized off the coast of north Morocco, according to the International Organisation for Migration (IOM). The Caminando Fronteras NGO, which offers aid to migrants, confirmed the ‘lifeless’ bodies recovered were those of two seven-year-old children.
Some 45,976 migrants have arrived by sea in Spain since the beginning of the y e a r, a n d a n o t h e r 5 4 7 h a v e b e e n k i l l e d making the perilous journey. The IOM statistics show that Spain has received more migrants that crossed the Mediterranean in 2018 than in 2015, 2016 and 2017 combined. The death toll is already reportedly three times higher than the figure for the whole of 2017. In October alone, the country received an average of 360 people a day, which is almost 10 times more than those who arrived in Italy, and three times as many as in Greece.

KING FELIPE’S sister does not have to follow normal rules when visiting her imprisoned husband due to security reasons, it was revealed last week. Princess Cristina de Borbon is allowed to take her private car to the door of Brieva jail, in Castilla y Leon. She does not have to wait with other visitors when she arrives to see her husband Iñaki Urdangarin, according to Spain’s Interior Ministry. Urdangarin was convicted of embezzlement, tax crimes and influence peddling as part of the ‘Noos’ case earlier this year. The Interior Ministry was responding to a question from Senator Joan Comorera, of the leftist Podemos, who asked why Princess Cristina enjoyed the special privileges. The Ministry said the arrangements were due to “security circumstances” such as keeping the King’s sister away from incidents which could occur if she came into contact with other visitors. “Authorities have an obligation to guarantee the safety and privacy of inmates and visitors during the visits,”

Princess Cristina has visited Urdangarin twice since he was jailed on June 18 after losing an appeal against the sentence at Spain’s
Supreme Court. The first visit took place that month, while the second went ahead on July 8 with no further records of trips since, according to reports.

Whaler bust FAKE FIND: Artefacts featuring Iberian script are rare (file photo).
Artefact forgery ‘NEUTRALISED’: The Castilla is operating off the Somali coast. A SPANISH naval ship has stopped an illegal whaling ship off the coast of Somalia as part of ongoing efforts to tackle piracy off the Horn of Africa. The Castilla assault vessel intercepted the whaler near to Somalia’s coast line last Saturday morning. A helicopter from the Spanish ship spotted
the vessel, and after personnel confirmed it was a whaling ship the Castilla ‘neutralised’ it, the Ministry of Defence said. The Castilla is currently taking part in Operation Atalanta, a European Union (EU) effort to combat piracy off the coast of Somalia and the Gulf of
Aden. The operation was launched in 2008 after a surge in attacks on commercial ships. The Castilla is a Galicia class vessel. It weights some 13,000 tons, is 165 metres long and carries a crew of 190. It is armed with several machine guns and an anti-missile defence system.
AN ancient sheet thought to be the oldest artefact of its kind found in Spain has turned out to be a forgery, according to researchers. Academics at the University of Jaen have been examining the text, which features writing in the Greco-Iberican script, since Guardia Civil officers seized it in the city. Police found it while working on an operation which saw six suspects arrested in Jaen, Mancha Real, La Guardia and Andujar. The sheet was initially thought to date from the 3rd century BCE, which would have made it the oldest item ever found with writing in the GrecoIberian script. Officials representing the Spanish government in Andalucia said its value would be “incalcula-
ble” if the find was authentic. Researchers at the University of Jaen’s Iberian Archaeology department found some of the Greek letters on the sheet did not match those that would have been used at the time. Police investigating the find now believe the item was forged for sale on the black market. Officers seized another almost 750 items during raids as part of Operation Alfaibero. Police claim the items were collected by a ring who arranged for them to be sold to collectors on the black market. Other items include Greek and Roman sculptors and artwork and a coin. The coin was also a forgery, of a Roman denarius piece almost 2,000 years old.

Fascist ban call AN organisation that promotes former dictator Francisco Franco could soon be banned after a European Union (EU) body called on governments to outlaw groups that ‘glorify’ fascism. Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) passed a motion last week which specifically referred to the Francisco Franco Foundation as an entity which ‘glorifies’ the former ruler and his ‘crimes.’ The reference came as part of a wider call to prohibit groups that ‘exalt and glorify’ fascism and Nazism across Europe. Spanish MEPs including Ana Miranda, of the leftist Galician regionalist Bloque Nacionalista Galego (BNG), said the motion was part of efforts to ensure fascism was ‘never again’ repeated.

MOTION: The European Parliament referred to Franco (inset) and the Foundation. (PP) asked for specific references to the Franco Foundation to be removed but they were kept in.

The main groupings in the European Parliament, which are made of political parties from across the bloc, jointly agreed to condemn what they said was a ‘surge’ in neo-fascism. The Parliament has called for a culture of common memory to combat what it claimed was a declining level of interest among younger people in Europe. “Younger generations feel less and less interested in the history of fascism and therefore run the risk of bei n g i n d i ff e r e n t t o n e w threats,” the motion said. It came after the Italian MEP Eleonora Forenza faced violence while attended an anti-fascist demonstration in Bari in her home country in September.

Budget wrangling ‘Bargaining chip’ and ‘irresponsible’ claims
COMMENTS: Sanchez, Rivera and Iglesias (left to right) have all made budget headlines. Pablo Iglesias, leader of Podemos which is allied to the PSOE in Parliament, attempted to secure backing for the budget last week. He has visited jailed proCatalan independence figures to secure support from parties including the Partit Democrata Europeu Catala
(PDeCAT) and the leftist Esquerra Republicana de Cataluña (ERC). Rivera said the courting of such parties amounted to Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez ‘cleansing’ the image of those who wanted to break up Spain. “The budget and other
laws decide the future of t h i s c o u n t r y. T h e r e i s n o need to exaggerate what is already serious enough, negotiating budgets in jail is serious,” he said. The Ciudadanos leader added the budget was a ‘blow’ to the self-employed and to drivers.
Maria Jesus Montero, Spain’s Finance Minister, said previously she ‘personally’ would not go to negotiate with jailed figures on behalf of the government. She added Iglesias was free to talk to who he pleased, but that he was not acting for the government. “It is the government who has the responsibility for securing agreements for the 2019 budget,” she said. Cracks have begun to appear in the budget pact agreed by PSOE and Podemos. Iglesias was set to press the government on planned fee hikes which could affect some self-employed workers. Pablo Echenique, Podemos’ Secretary, said his party did not agree to the increases as wrangling over budget plans looks set to continue.

Satellite launch A SPANISH-made satellite is set to be launched into space next year for an observation mission, the country’s Science Minister has announced. INGENIO is set to go into orbit around the Earth sometime in late 2019. It will join another Spanish satellite, PAZ, which was launched last February. The launch of INGENIO will make Spain the first European country to have a dual-system and dual-use observation system in orbit.
BLAST OFF: The INGENIO satellite is set for launch next year. Science Minister Pedro Duque, who is also a former astronaut, was at the headquarters of the European Space Agency (ESA) in Madrid when the mission was unveiled. “I am very happy to make this announcement,” Duque said. Duque also took part in the signing of a deal between the
French, German, Italian, Swiss and Spanish governments which backs the launches of a further two satellites. INGENIO comes equipped with an optical camera that has a resolution of 2.5 metres per pixel, meaning it will be able to identify any vehicle on Earth once in orbit. It measures 1.5 metres in
length, is 1.5 metres high and 1.5 metres wide and weighs 150 kilograms. The satellite, built by the SENER aerospace firm, is set to be launched aboard the ESA’s Vega C rocket. INGENIO’s coupling with PAZ will give Spain both a radar and optical observation system. It will also have two uses, civilian and military.
Boat ban from Africa SPANISH government officials have drawn up plans to ban boats often used to traffic migrants and drugs between North Africa and the country’s southern coast.

The boats are typically used by people and drugs smugglers to cross the Strait of Gibraltar from Morocco to the coast of southern Spain. They are capable of making the journey in less than an hour, with the Strait measuring 14 kilometres at its narrowest point. The ban follows several steps taken by the current and previous Spanish government to tackle trafficking in the area this year.

On the offensive By Joe Gerrard THE leader of the opposition conservative Partido Popular (PP) marked his 100th day in office last Monday and continued to fire salvos in an apparent pitch for high office. Pablo Casado, who was elected to the presidency of the PP in July, has accused the ruling left-leaning Partido Socialista (PSOE) of being beholden to pro-independence parties. He added the PSOE were focused on making gestures rather than policy and cited scandals including the resignation of two cabinet ministers as proof the party was unfit to govern. Casado’s comments have marked a brake in relations between his party and the PSOE. His remarks in Congress accusing the government of being complicit in a pro-independence party ‘coup to break up Spain were branded ‘indecent’ by Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez. Sanchez and Casado have met in the Prime Minister’s official residence of La Moncloa once since both took office. Sanchez had attempted to make overtures to the opposition due to his party’s fragile position in parliament.
NIGHT OR DAY: 24-hour roadside recovery. FIGHTING TALK: Casado has been PP leader since July. The PP remains the single largest party in the lower house, the Congress of Deputies, with 134 seats to the PSOE’s 84 out of 350. The PP controls the Senate outright with 148 seats to the PSOE’s 62 out of 266. Sanchez’s attempts to build bridges with the PP appear to have failed as the two parties appeared openly hostile to each other this week. The PP is also seeking to set out its stall for upcoming elections in Andalucia. It will have to put distance between itself and its main rivals the centrist Ciudadanos and the far right Vox to woo potential
voters for both parties. Casado’s strategy has so far seen him tack to the right to strike out from Ciudadanos on social issues such as abortion and migration and to outmanoeuvre the fledgling Vox. He was chosen as PP leader on a platform which included tightening abortion rules and cracking down on migration. The results of Andalucia’s regional elections on December 2 will indicate whether the gambit has paid off. The region has been dominated by the PSOE since Spain’s transition to democracy in the late 1970’s.
Monarchy debate EFFORTS to force an investigation into the finances of the former Spanish king have ignited a debate over keeping the country’s monarchy. The leftist Podemos party has called on authorities to open a probe into King Emeritus Juan Carlos over claims he may have been involved in the Gurtel corruption scandal. The case brought down the previous conservative Partido Popular (PP) government last June. Pablo Iglesias, the leader of Podemos, said the party did not understand why an investigation into the former head of state could not be opened. Spanish monarchs are immune from prosecution under the country’s constitution.
The push comes as several regional assemblies and parliaments debated the monarchy last week. Cataluña’s parliament called for the monarchy to be abolished and the government is now set to take the matter to Spain’s Constitutional Court. The moves follow previous remarks from Podemos leader Iglesias following Spain’s National Day where he called for the abolition of the monarchy. The Spanish King and Queen have remained consistently popular and polling has found support for them has stayed well above 50 per cent. Other than open hostility to the monarchy in areas such as Cataluña, it does not appear there is an overwhelming appetite to establish a Third Republic.

Absolutely everyone from any country is welcome to attend and Ian Giles, the president of the CCCA urges, “the more the merrier.” The war affected so many countries and people of all nationalities, and Ian says: “There can’t be a soul that has not been touched by the two world wars, or war in general, in terms of family and friends. “No one should forget the sacrifice made and in this centenary year it is crucial to remember so that we prevent it ever happening again.” The event will start at 10.30am for 11.00am. A two-minute silence will be observed at 12.00pm CET (11.00am

AntiSemitism rising
GUNNED DOWN: The attack took place at the Tree of Life synagogue.
US synagogue shooting PEOPLE across the United States (US) and the world mourned the deaths of 11 Jewish worshippers shot while observing Shabbat at a synagogue in Pittsburgh last Saturday. Members of the New Life Congregation were gunned down in the Tree of Life Synagogue that morning in the deadliest attack on Jews in US history. It came amidst concerns that anti-Semitism is on the rise in the US and across the world. Mourners have since placed flowers outside the synagogue and vigils have been held in memory of the victims in Pittsburgh and elsewhere. Local police said Robert Bowers, 46, has been arrested in connection with the shooting. US prosecutors based in Pittsburgh are seeking the death penalty for the suspect who was due to appear before a court in the city last Monday on 29 charges. Scott Brady, the US attorney for the Western District of Pennsylvania which is handling the case, said

they were currently treating the attack as a hate crime. Bill Peduto, the mayor of Pittsburgh, said the attack marked the “darkest day” in the city’s history. Rabbi Hazzan Jeffrey Myers, of
the Tree of Life synagogue, said he and worshippers there would rebuild and be stronger and better than ever. “You can cut some branches from our tree, but Tree of Life has

been in Pittsburgh for 154 years. We’re not going anywhere,” the Rabbi said in an interview on US television. US President Donald Trump said the attack was an assault on humanity. “It will take all of us working together to extract the poison of antiSemitism from our world. We must unite to conquer hate.” The White House flew its flag at half mast in mourning for the victims. Trump later claimed no one may have been killed if there had been armed guards posted at the synagogue. The Spanish Embassy in Washington DC said: “We are deeply saddened by the news from Pittsburgh. The Embassy stands in solidarity with the victims, their families and the synagogue community.” The alleged gunman’s motives are believed to stem from antiSemitism. He reportedly told police officers who arrested him at the scene that he wanted all Jews “to die.”
THE shooting comes as figures show the number of anti-Semitic-related incidents has increased in the US. The Anti-Defamation League (ADF) Jewish rights advocacy group said it had recorded a 57 per cent rise in anti-Semitic incidents in the US in 2017 compared to the previous year. Earlier ADF figures showed attacks had declined for around a decade up to and including 2013. They then rose by 21 per cent in 2014. The latest FBI statistics show that of the 1,538 religiously-motivated hate crimes committed during 2016, 54.2 per cent of them were anti-Semitic. Incidents have included harassment, threats, and the vandalism of synagogues and other Jewish buildings with Nazi symbols including the swastika. Deborah E Lipstadt, a Professor of Holocaust history at Atlanta’s Emory University, said anti-Semitism was now the worst it had ever been. The increase in anti-Semitism has been linked to the rise of the farright more generally in the last decade. Jonathan Greenblatt, the head of the ADF, said anti-Semitism had was almost becoming normalised and claimed Trump himself had used rhetoric with anti-Jewish undertones. “But it’s about more than what one man does. We are seeing an environment in which anti-Semitism has moved from the margins to the mainstream,” he said. It also comes as the US has seen a spike in the number of mass shootings. There were 26 shootings documented in the US in October as of last Monday, with the Pittsburgh attack the second most recent and deadliest according to the Gun Violence Archive. The attack is likely to see renewed calls for greater gun control measures, with efforts to restrict firearms ownership having struggled to gain traction in recent years. The Republican Party, which controls both houses of Congress and the presidency with Trump, traditionally takes a pro-gun or ‘Second Amendment’ stance. It also has close ties to the National Rifle Association (NRA) gun owners and industry lobbying group.

Repentant Rato jailed FORMER Director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and ex Vice-President of the Spanish government, Rodrigo Rato, has been jailed for embezzlement during his banking years. Rato arrived on his own to the Madrid prison of Soto del Real last Thursday, where he must serve a sentence of four-and-a-half years for financial fraud between 2010 and 2012. “I accept the mistakes I have made and I ask society to forgive me, in particular those who were
by Tom Woods deceived or affected,” he told reporters. It is the first time that Rato, VicePresident during the administration of Jose Maria Aznar (1996-2004) of the Popular Party, has admitted guilt after being found complicit in the case known as ‘Black cards.’ The Supreme Court of Spain confirmed on October 3 the initial sentence imposed initially by the National Audience (AN) in February 2017 against the former Director
General of the IMF. Rato and 63 others were accused of transferring some €12 million from Caja Madrid and Bankia, through the use of credit cards not registered by the Treasury of personal expenses. Rato was charged with continuing the ‘corrupt scheme’ of his predecessor, Miguel Blesa, who committed suicide in July 2017. This is one of three legal cases opened against Rato, with two others involving money laundering and financial irregularities.
SPAIN’S unemployment rate fell to 14.6 per cent in the third quarter, official data has shown. This is its lowest level since the last quarter of 2008 after a busy tourist season boosted employment in services. Spanish unemployment has fallen steadily from its peak in early 2013, when it reached nearly 27 per cent. Seasonal businesses like tourism and agriculture have helped to improve the picture over the past few years, and the total number of people employed is 19.5 million.

High stakes TECH TITAN: Miguel Arias is Telefonica’s head of entrepreneurship. INVESTMENT in tech startups in Spain grew 45 per cent in 2017 to €780 million, according to a study for the Mobile World Capital conference. This compares to €207 million in 2013 and there are now 3,500 start-ups in the country, up a fifth from 2016. Aspiring entrepreneurs have been encouraged by a growing number of big-ticket sales to larger companies, which have proved that people can make real money out of creating a new company. There are also a number of
businesses that have reached the ‘unicorn’ status of being worth more than $1 billion (€880 million). Maxi Mobility, the parent company of the taxi app Cabify, this year raised €140 million from investors. Classified advertising app LetGo, which was started in Barcelona, also became worth more than $1 billion (€880 million) last year. Entrepreneurs say they are attracted to Spain in part because of the high quality of life and low cost of living.

Sabadell weathers storm COSTS from IT problems at its British bank TSB hit Sabadell’s third quarter earnings on Friday, but shares in the Spanish banking group nevertheless rose as it exceeded forecasts. Sabadell said its third-quarter net profit had fallen 37 per cent after a botched migration of TSB’s systems in April prompted a regulatory investigation and the exit of its CEO. Despite this, Sabadell reported net attributable profit for the quarter of €127 million, lifting its
shares by 4.9 per cent. Spain itself has had a stronger than expected loan growth, particularly in the large corporate and retail mortgage sectors. Sabadell said the extraordinary costs relating to the TSB outage included an increase in interest rates on its premium account, impacting on commissions and fraud losses. Its rival Caixabank reported a decline of 27.6 per cent in third quarter net profit.

Minister labour vow SPAIN’S Economy Minister has told representatives of the British banking industry that her government has no plans to make major reforms to labour laws in a London meeting last Monday. Nadia Calviño told those at the meeting in the City of London, Britain’s financial centre, the ruling left-leaning Partido Socialista (PSOE) were seeking to make ‘adjustments’ to worker rules. It comes after the government unveiled a budget which included the largest hike of the minimum wage in Spain’s democratic history. Calviño said there had been ‘great confusion’ over whether the PSOE would overhaul labour laws enacted by the previous conservative Partido Popular (PP) which relaxed some labour rules. “We are not going to change all the labour legislation, there are only going to be some adjustments,” Calviño said. “A part of the PP reform had positives results, giving more flexibility to the labour market. Other effects have been negative, creat-
LAW PLEDGE: Calviño speaks in the City of London. ing great precariousness in some contracts and too much turnover,” the minister added. Calviño said PP laws making it easier for firms to hire and fire had created a new class of workers unable to make long term decisions. Companies were also reluctant to invest the minister added. Calviño said during the talk organised by the Spanish Chamber
of Commerce and the Spanish Embassy that the minimum wage hike would have a ‘neutral’ effect on job creation. The government plans to increase the minimum rate of pay to €900 a month. Supporters of the PP’s previous labour laws argue it created a more business-friendly environment and encouraged firms to take on staff.
Opponents claim it allowed firms to take on and let go off staff at a whim and made it easier for companies to take advantage of workers. Supporters of the proposed minimum wage hike argue it will lead to a positive knock on effect economically while detractors claim it would make it more expensive to hire staff.

Bank bolsters security THE Bank of Spain has launched new security software on its website to make its systems more robust in the wake of the cyber-attack suffered at the end of August that blocked access to the agency’s home page. The Spanish government has taken action after receiving severe criticism after the incident, but pointed out that ‘cyber security is an area of key concern for administrations around the world.’ Evidence has led the authorities to conclude that the hackers involved were largely based abroad, with only 10 per cent of the illegal activity being traced to Spanish territory. The cyber attack has been linked to previous assaults on the websites of the PSOE, the National Police and the National Court, and is believed to be part of a campaign backing the independence of Cataluña. Importantly, there is no evidence that the hackers gained access to sensitive information or that there were any leaks of confidential data. Nevertheless, the Bank of Spain suffered reputational and operational damage at the time.

An international laughing stock?
LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT WELL that’s just about it. I think the British have finally managed to become the laughing stock of virtually the whole planet. From the bat infested cave hideouts of Daesh, to the plush corridors and well stocked bars of the European parliament, I can almost hear the sniggers and guffaws from here, and we only have ourselves to blame. Slowly but surely, we have allowed the PC brigade, the lunatic left and the snowflakes, to influence our lives and make a mockery of our laws, our culture and our common sense. We are persecuting our brave troops, pardoning our enemies and kowtowing to a whole host of foreigners and interlopers, many of whom wish us nothing but harm and treat everything we stand for with utter contempt. The police have lost our respect. Not the least because they are almost afraid to arrest or question anyone of ethnic origin, in case they are accused of racism or prejudice. Many of our judges, who at one time we could rely on to make fair judgements, seem to have utterly lost the plot. We now seem to accept their often utterly nonsensical decisions purely as the ‘norm’. The reason is actually quite simple. We’re all brainwashed. The oldest ploy in the book and we’ve been completely sucked in by it.
JUSTICE: Will a show trial mean Khashoggi’s family never see justice? This latest example was a real humdinger. In 2006, a Somalian born woman applied for UK asylum. She was accepted and became a British citizen in 2013. She also received passports for her children and her mother. She recently showed her ‘gratitude’ to the UK by travelling to Somalia and trying to smuggle in
a couple of distant relatives on two of the passports. She was caught red handed and last week hauled up before the courts. Subsequently, the judge decided her acts were humanitarian and not criminal. Instead of a thoroughly deserved jail sentence, she was given community service and sent on her
way. The two relatives were granted full asylum. Well of course they were. What a wonderful deterrent to others of the same mind! Oh, and by the way, there were no attempts at ‘integration’ here. Despite being in the country for 12 years, the woman spoke no English, can’t work, and receives benefits and NHS care for sciatica and depression, and you don’t think they are not all laughing at us? Give us a break. A quick prophecy here about the outcome of the Saudi-Khashoggi affair. The Saudis will declare the murder a rogue operation. They will parade all the suspects (assassination squad) in a lavish Riyadh show trial and hand down long sentences to each. I wouldn’t put it past them to throw in a low life they can behead, just to show they really mean business. These men will then go to jail. After a reasonable time, when all the furore has died down, they will be quietly released, given millions of Riyals apiece and disappear into the Kingdom to live in luxury for the rest of their days (I also suggest they watch their backs!). The money men will all give a sigh of relief, congratulate each other on a job well done and get back to their real purpose in life, manipulating the peasants. You and me that is! Keep the faith Love, Leapy. leapylee2002@gmail.com

TECH FOR THE TIMID PITY the poor American TV couchpotato, who has to endure up to 20 minutes of commercials every hour. They are often at peak volume, barking out excruciating exhortations to buy everything from haemorrhoid creams to legal assistance for problems you didn’t know you had. Spain has ‘only’ 15 minutes of ads an hour, though the EU hopes to standardise commercial breaks to 12 minutes. Happy days for the Brits, even disregarding the glorious ad-free environment of the public BBC, UK broadcasters ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 show an average of just seven minutes of commercials an hour. Advertising is the price we pay (increasingly) for getting stuff free. When that nice philanthropist Jeff Bezos of Amazon offered to sell us Kindles at cost price if we’d put up with ads on the home screen, rivals thought we’d never buy it. Amazon has since sold tens of millions of ad-subsidised ‘special

COMMERCIALS: Americans are exposed to at least 4,000 a day. offer’ Kindles. But are we heading for ‘peak ad’? The willingness of increasing numbers of people to pay subscriptions for their ad-free ‘content’ suggests many of us have simply had enough. As growing numbers of viewers desert the traditional commercial TV channels, is regulating how much time advertisers can spend trying to sell us stuff, a little like
shuffling those proverbial Titanic deckchairs? Eyebrows went skywards last year when a survey insisted the average American is exposed to at least 4,000 adverts a day. A sceptical reporter decided to check. He gave up counting when he got to 487 and was barely past breakfast. What do we do when an overwhelmance of ads gives us the
screaming habdabs? Of course we can switch off, or we can subscribe to on-demand TV without ads. Here’s a more practical option for those of us who (still) love the so-called ‘free to air’ TV channels, and want to buck the trend which will see most folks in the developed world buying four monthly ‘content’ subscriptions by 2020, and younger folks supporting a 10-aday habit. It’s simple: skip the ads. No, that doesn’t mean heading into the kitchen four times an hour to make a cuppa, for bladder or for worse. Don’t watch live TV. Record it, and zap through the ads. Easypeasy. Assuming you’re watching via a traditional antenna or a satellite dish, just replace your tuner or decoder with a TV recorder for somewhere between €100 and €200. But good luck when the thing starts gaining on you. When you’re recording more TV than you can possibly watch, welcome to the club.
GROWING numbers of TVs now have built-in recorders, and a price-tag to match. For those of us further down the food chain, standalone TV tuner-recorders range from analogue models for TV coming into our homes through a traditional antenna, to the newer ones for satellite. Gone are the days when programming your VCR took a degree in electronics - or a passing six-year-old. These days you just pull up the programme guide, find the show you want and press the big red button. Even if the programme moves, technology will do the rest when it airs, and if it’s a series it will even record every subsequent episode. Then sit back to prove my personal contention: that some commercials actually make more sense viewed at x8 or x16.

GOOD morning, class. No talking at the back, please. I’d like to begin with a moan. A study sponsored by Sainsbury’s and Oxfam last year, calculated that more than 235 million articles of clothing were sent to landfill annually. Discarded clothing has been one of the fastest-growing sources of British waste over the past decade. The fashion industry relies on our irresistible compulsion for fast, cheap, disposable clothes. Especially uncomfortable, daft-looking clothes (and stiletto heels) worn by a ‘celeb’. Wear once, throw away. If it looks bizarre, it must be great. Well, I blame Brexit! It's obvious. People can see that crashing out of the EU single market and customs union is going to result in delays to the import of skinny jeans, fashion-forward tops and shoes, and naturally, higher prices.

Can they take legal action? Our community has some villas on plots and some attached row houses. All the houses have the same roofs with roof-tiles. One owner has created a new living area by enclosing and roofing his small garden. This was done with no permission from the neighbours or the Community. Another owner demolished his tile roof and replaced it with a flat terrace, altering the general appearance of the whole housing estate. The Community AGM was never informed of these constructions even though the town hall issued a building permit for the terrace. Can we take legal action against these constructions? P V (Costa Blanca)
Yes you can. In the David Searl first case, construction of a You and the Law new covered area means in Spain that one owner now has a larger share of the entire property and should pay higher community fees. In the other case, one member of a community may not alter the external appearance without approval of the AGM. You should place the issue on the official Agenda for the next AGM.

Wo-Man United? Mike Senker In my opinion Views of a Grumpy Old Man QUICK - Get some of the sexist nose blowers while you still can. It has taken 60 years, but Kleenex is finally renaming their ‘mansize’ tissues after getting customer complaints. The facial tissues formerly known as mansize, will now be branded ‘extra large’. The parent company, Kimberly Clark, have succumbed to growing public demand to change the name, despite not itself believing that the branding suggests or endorses gender inequality. Growing demand my a**e! It’s a bunch of raving nutters! What next? Get rid of Man United and Man City football clubs?

But, after most of the media went crazy about this idea, the University then said it was actually not banning it - they were offering an alternative
and was not compulsory. Stop - you are bonkers! I’ve mentioned apps like Uber and Just Eat before, and though I have used Uber when in the UK or US, I have always steered away from Just Eat, as I don’t know where the food is coming from. It turns out I made a good decision. This week it has come to light that the rating the app gives their eateries, bears absolutely no resemblance to the ones the local councils give them for hygiene. Many takeaways in England with a zero rating for hygiene, are among those listed on the Just Eat food app, a BBC investigation reports. That’s right - zero as opposed to the four and five stars the app gave them. Twenty out of 31 takeaways rated zero in Birmingham, are on Just Eat. Nine of 13 takeaways rated zero in Liverpool are listed there. In Manchester, Bristol and London, half of the takeaways with a zero rating are on the platform. That means rats, cockroaches and salmonella. It’s disgusting that this can be allowed. I’m not even sure if there is anything that can legally be done about it, but there should be. The public should be safeguarded against companies that do not do due diligence, saying that ratings are gathered by customer comments. It is unacceptable as they are judging by taste, which doesn’t indicate the filth the food was kept, prepared and cooked in. mikesenker@gmail.com

A celebration of Canarian culture and identity LETTERS FROM CANARIES By Barbara Belt barbarabelt@gmail.com THE Fiestas Lustrales in La Gomera have kept us all very busy during October. We’re jaded now by so much partying but continuing apace till the island’s patron saint, the Virgen de Guadalupe, finally gets back to her chapel overlooking the sea at Puntallana, near island capital San Sebastián. Have a look at www.lustrales lagomera.es to marvel at how full on we’ve been. There’s been everything, from theatre, music concerts, maritime processions, fireworks, regattas, sports events, religious ceremonies, folklore, live TV and radio broadcasts, conferences, exhibitions, comedy shows, kids’ activities… to hunting dog competitions. Special ferries have been laid on to get us all to San Sebastián from other island ports, and from other islands. Guadalupe’s now on tour round the
PARTY: Juanes performed as part of the festivities.
ON TOUR: The virgin is on the return journey to her chapel. island until early December, when there’s a recuperative period for the liver until Christmas, New Year and Los Reyes are upon us. Shortly after, we burst into party mode again for carnival. Island life can be demanding. Fiestas Lustrales are the big bashes that occur (generally) every four or five years when the patron saint of an island comes out and goes on tour. They’re also called Bajadas, meaning
descents. This is mountainous terrain. All the western islands have Bajadas and coinciding with one is an intelligent idea if you’re thinking of visiting the Canaries. They are extraordinary events. Here’s a brief summary of when and where to experience them: La Gomera’s next one’s from September to December 2023, with the big day on October 8. The first was in 1872.
El Hierro’s Bajada has happened every four years since 1643. The next is July 3, 2021, when their Virgen de Los Reyes will be danced and piped the whole length of the island, although the festivities last longer. Add this one to your bucket list. Stout footwear, something warm for the before-daybreak start and a loaded hipflask are recommended. You won’t believe your eyes! Book flights and a bed well before, as the island’s 10,000 population doubles for the Fiestas Lustrales. La Palma’s Virgen de Las Nieves does her next four yearly tour on July 2, 2020 and has been doing so since 1680. There are excellent festivities
throughout July and August. Provincial capital Tenerife’s Bajadas are more complicated. The Virgen de Candelaria is patron saint of all the Canary Islands and only comes out from her church in Candelaria every seven years, going to either Santa Cruz or La Laguna. She’ll go to Santa Cruz in October 2025 and La Laguna in May 2032, exact dates to be announced. Tenerife’s first Bajada was in 1555. Gran Canaria only very occasionally celebrates Lustrales, while Lanzarote, Fuerteventura and La Graciosa don’t at all. Now, why don’t the eastern islands do Bajadas when the west are so mad keen on them? There’s lots of argument, but my money’s on their proximity to Africa and its diluting effect on the Catholicism Spanish conquerors imposed. The Bajadas today, though, are also celebrations of Canarian culture and identity and well worth seeing. Barbara Belt barbarabelt@gmail.com EWN November 2018.

Cassandra Nash A weekly look - and not entirely impartial reaction to the Spanish political scene
SAUDI ARABIA thinks it can literally get away with murder, as Jamal Khashoggi’s murder demonstrates. Mohammed Bin Salman has made clear that opposing him, even outside the kingdom, brings savage death. The regime became accustomed to getting away with murder because the West wanted and needed its oil, and the Saudis use arms and trade deals to buy the silence of nations who should be their critics. Following Khashoggi’s killing, Germany called on other EU countries to refuse to sell arms to Saudi Arabia, but poor Pedro Sanchez had to keep schtum. On entering the Moncloa, he announced that Spain would cancel the sale of 400 bombs, whereupon Mohammed bin Salman threatened to cancel a €1.8 billion

The buyer of silence
MURDERED: Jamal Khashoggi paid the ultimate price. deal for five Corvettes that will keep 6,000 people in jobs. Threatened with shipyard unrest, Sanchez had to backtrack and is unlikely to come forward and answer Germany’s call. Taking a moral stance against a tyrant needs more than ‘cojones’. It needs
money in the bank and people in work.
Trial and error THE Partido Popular has called for the Gurtel corruption trial to be repeated. The verdicts and the tri-
bunal judges’ summing up was ‘unjustifiably’ dama g i n g t o i t s h o n o u r, t h e party complained. It is asking for a retrial, claiming that one of the judges, Jose Ricardo de la Prada, was impartial due to his friendship with sup e r- j u d g e B a l t a s a r G a r zon, the original investigating judge assigned to the Gurtel case. Garzon was tried by S p a i n ’s S u p r e m e C o u r t , for bugging conversations between remanded prisoners and their lawyers, and it will be 11 years before he can practise again. Because of this friendship, the PP wants another trial, presumably hoping for a verdict they can accept. That might bring some consolation but it wouldn’t put them back in power or move Pedro Sanchez - whom they regard as a squatter - out of the Moncloa.
Harpo knew best DOLORS MONTSERRAT, Health Minister in Mariano Rajoy’s last government, is the Partido Popular’s parliamentary spokeswoman, and rumour has it that the party leadership wants to get rid of her as humanely as possible. At a recent control session, she asked vice-president Carmen Calvo if she was ‘proud of the government’s co-ordination’ in an embarrassingly unco-ordinated discourse, that cited disconcerted prostitutes, football, the moon, Waterloo and the herriko tabernas. At one point, Montserrat compared the government to the Marx Brothers’ cabin, and after Calvo acidly congratulated the spokeswoman on her performance - using the English word - her groaning fellow MPs must have wished that she were Harpo.
Rock stars WHAT promised to be one of the trickiest issues, Gibraltar, appears to be progressing well, even t hough Spai n could put an enormous spanner i n t he Br exi t works if it so wished. The thorniest points of all, Spain wanting to shar e t he ai r por t and t axes, wi l l be deal t with, Pedro Sanchez said. Just goes to show how sm oot hl y t hi ngs can go when there is no interference from ReesMogg, Boris, Gove, Duncan Smith, Davis, Fox or Redwood.
Was The Beast informing on Strictly? Credit: itv
TV COUCH CRITIC by Adam Whalley-Lewis
I AM guessing most of you (us) have had some sort of heating on since last week? Come on, be honest, and I hope anyone hit by the floods is at least starting to get back to something approaching normality - some of the TV footage was horrible. Just because you are close by, shout out to anyone affected in San Pedro and Estepona, stay safe. The Chase made social media headlines over the last week and ITV have been surprisingly quiet about it all, me thinks too quiet maybe? Firstly, The Governess seems to have been given a much easier set of questions than contestants Sarah-Jane and Majorie. The ladies racked up an impressive 18 correct answers but were caught by Anne, thanks to, on the face of it, an easier set of questions. AND THEN Mark The Beast Labbett seemed to have been beaten by time only for
THE CHASE: This popular ITV show is an evening staple for many viewers. his final answer to be given by Dr Who side-kick Bradley, even though the clock clearly showed no time left before he completed his answer. The Chase is a staple of early evening viewing and doesn’t need anything messy clouding the format. Just a final thought, what do the
contestants do all day? Win or not, they have all enjoyed their day and had a lovely time. If you know, let me know and if you fancy a bit of Come Dine With Me insight next week, let me know on that too? The Chase is on week days, ITV. Fans of box-sets might want to
search out Informer, via BBC iPlayer. This is a gritty and complex thriller about a counter-terrorism officer recruiting an East London lad to be, you guessed it, an informer. The story is solid and nothing is off limits for the script writers. Let’s quickly waltz through the latest episodes of Strictly. Seann Walsh and Katya Jones left on Sunday. I’m making no further comment on that. I will just mention the Halloween opening last week’s, themed apparently on the Mexican Day of the Dead Holiday. There is a lot of noise about the dancing having racist overtones. Now, I much prefer the All Saints Holiday to Halloween, but I’m not signing up to the racist complaints against Strictly. Three lads who I suspect could turn their hands to anything continue their Road Trip on ITV, Thursday. Gordon, Gino and Fred are brilliantly flung together to cheekily complete a road trip and have some Carry-On fun along the way. Last week the lads were in Scotland, there were some obvious kilt jokes and lots of scallops, combined with
some stunning Celtic scenery. I’m a fan, I’m sure the guys will be thrilled! Sunday evening brought us the start of a new BBC adaptation of The Little Drummer Girl. This is from the people who brought us The Night Manager, so that’s a good starting point? Well yes, a good start, but for anyone who knows John le Carre’s novel this is destined to be a much darker TV experience than Night Manager. The story is a spy drama set in the 1970’s following a bombing in East Germany. There is an Israeli intelligence investigation which undercovers a link to assassination attempts against leading Jewish people across the globe. Michael Shannon and Florence Pugh are the stars of this slow burning story. Stick with it. Dark Heat is a new detective drama from ITV, Wednesday evenings. First episode this week, so I will catch up with you on this one next week. Happy Viewing HappyViewing1@outlook.com

Your lot is to be optimistic and positive. Perhaps in the last few months there was the need to take on the problems of others. However, you absolutely must get a balance here. Concentrate this week on getting your body and mind in good shape. That means being a little self-centred to start with. A good routine is essential and the will to stick with it.
ARIES (March 21 - April 20)
CHARLES BRONSON: In The Travels of Jaimie McPheeters, 1963.
Famous quote
‘
AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19)
Your very nature can lead to internal struggles. In the coming months, however, the truth becomes clear. What is outside of your experience now will become a part of your make-up. Any fear that you had of the unknown gradually diminishes.
In 1997 a Louisville woman left actor Charles Bronson all of her money in a handwritten will, a total of about $300,000. She’d never met him, she was just a fan.
I’m selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can’t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best.” Marilyn Monroe

There has been a very strong feeling through these last few weeks. This feeling has been one of spirituality. Your thoughts have been deeper than usual and the sense that there is more to life is acute. This, therefore, gives an impetus to everything that you do this week. The need to progress both on the home and business front has rarely been stronger.
TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) In the last few weeks there may have been a sense of being not quite in control. That is something to deal with this week. Real progress will only be made when you have faced what is not wanted. You will rid yourself of any negative emotions quickly by facing them.
GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) You are a great charmer but it is possible to have too much of a good thing. Is there the possibility that your romantic life needs tidying up? Perhaps the number of irons that you have in the fire is causing problems? This week, make it a priority to simplify your life. Be strong and straight with others. A clean slate for the future means not letting small matters run away with you.
CANCER (June 22 - July 23) The ever-inquisitive part of your brain is in high spirits. Clearly there is much to be known and enjoyed over the coming months. Begin at the beginning though. Before you throw yourself into a spiritual or business endeavour, get the facts. I don't mean what people tell you they think. What you
need right now is proof that your interest in a certain area is justified.
LEO (July 24 - August 23) Certainly there have been times that you felt crestfallen. Sometimes circumstances bring us down. Avoid believing in the myth of ‘what should have been’. What you are is not what others see but what you feel inside. Success does not depend upon your bank balance but rather more your spiritual progress.
VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) The changes that have already started in the way that you see your life have given pause for thought. You are sure that you could have done better but maybe it is not clear how. Take a step back now and see where you came from. Two years ago where were you heading? Do you still want to follow that path? A need to get back on track can start this week.
LIBRA (September 24 - October 23) It becomes clear to you that some friends are drifting away. We all have to make changes as life itself is a constantly shifting event. You prefer to hold on to what is familiar and you are not alone in that. At the moment, however, there is much for you to experience, see and feel. Sometimes this brings you discomfort and sometimes unimaginable joy.
SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) With a lot of pent-up energy and not a little determination the month is off to a strong start with you. Be aware, however, that treading on the toes of influential people is not to be advised. Your feeling that you are right is admirable, but be tactful.
SAGITTARIUS (November 23 - December 21) You of all people understand the importance of the spiritual side of life. Despite being successful in your own right there is the need to bring this to other people. In sharing your experiences this year you come to a better understanding yourself.
CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 20) Your practical streak is in full force. Over the next months you will bring much benefit to those around you, in financial terms perhaps, but also spiritually. This week, in itself, shows you how others value your presence and advice.

The Follow Jesus Christ app was released in Rome by evangelical group Fundacion Ramon Pane.

Appalling views bring shame I AM appalled at your newspaper for publishing a biased and homophobic column by Leapy Lee! Saying you aren’t ‘homophobic’ does not mean you aren’t. Referring to minorities as ‘The lunatics are taking over the asylum’ sums up this columnist’s true feelings. I am all for freedom of speech but not this kind of attack on any minority! Shame on him, but even more shame on your editorial team for allowing this to be published and distributed. I appreciate that leaving the civility of the UK there will be some adjustment to my new life but I had no idea Spain was so far back in allowing the promotion of such views. Absolutely disgusted!

Chilly dip I HAVE been a regular user of the Albox pool since it opened. Now the mayor of Albox has not only had the gym closed down, but the pool is not open in the mornings any more except on Saturday. There is only one lifeguard having to cover these hours (poor guy). I have been to the town hall twice to complain, not just about the hours, but that the electric for hairdriers was turned off (now sorted, but it took two weeks). Now the heating for the pool has been turned off. It’s freezing and as nearly all the people who use it at 4pm are OAPs we need the pool heated. It seems to me that the mayor is determined to have the community centre completely closed down. Needless to say myself and many friends of all nationalities will not use it until the pool is at least 27 degrees C. Give us pensioners our warm pool back please! Mrs T Turpie

Clocks go BACK this weekend - and why it could be for the last time in Spain Anyone remember Double Summer time? 1970’s. Lovely long evenings, but darker mornings - when no one really cares. These days so many people go to work in the dark all year round anyway. Try commuting for an hour into London, to get to the office by 8! PM Light evenings are a major benefit and makes living in Spain so much nicer. It is brilliant being able to enjoy the daylight until 6.00pm while gloomy Britain starts getting dark at 3.30pm in the middle of winter and everyone feels depressed. Making the evenings darker and having an extra hour of daylight when you are getting up in the morning or still asleep isn’t really an improvement. Keep things as they are!! Angus

He considers Marbella as ‘probably the most beautiful city in Europe’ and has a particular fondness for Estepona, which is where he’s currently directing his latest movie ‘Pistolera.’ The cast of this new film is impressive: Romina Di Lella is the star (Enemy Within, Love Hate & Security) with Robert Davi (James Bond Licence To Kill & Die Hard), Danny Trejo (Machete, From Dusk Till Dawn, Desperado and Once Upon a Time in Mexico) take other leading roles. Damian is also in the film himself. It must be challenging but fun for him to direct people of this calibre and get to ‘play’ alongside them too! However he’s no newcomer to working with top-notch Hollywood stars. When he started as an actor his first break came as a stand-in for Madon-

na’s ‘Papa don’t preach’ music video. He had his first leading role in ‘Blood in blood out’ alongside the likes of Benjamin Bratt and Billy Bob Thornton. His next part was in Street Fighter with Van Damme, Raul Julia and Kylie Minogue and Under Siege with Steven Seagall followed that. However by talking to him you’d never know he’s so famous or from Hollywood since he comes across as really ‘normal.’ He said he’d always had a love for make believe; remembering how he would dress up as different characters as a child and entertain his sisters. Acting just came naturally to him. I could sense a strong character behind the easy smile and wondered how he’d liked taking orders from other directors in the past. He said that as a professional actor he’d always listened to his directors, whom he admired, but he’d always envisioned how he’d have done it differently. He took every opportunity to learn as much about the industry as possible, including lighting and editing, which all led by natural progression to him becoming the movie di-
rector he is today. Although Romina Di Leila is the action-packed Latin style ‘Lara Croft’ heroine of Pistolera she is also the Executive Producer. She and Damian have worked on several films together and they both have high hopes that this new action packed movie will appeal to old and new fans in the US and Europe alike. I had to ask Damian how he was finding the Spanish pace, being that he’s from the USA where everything needs to be done yesterday and in Andalucia, well, it’s not. Apparently I hit the nail on the head, as it’s the only thing he’s had a problem adapting to. Damian already has another ambitious project in mind; bringing Hollywood to the Costa del Sol. I’m sure this would be much appreciated by everyone, particularly all our businesses and local budding actors so hopefully he’ll get all the support from us he needs and great success for this new movie in the making.

V I S I T O U R W E B S I T E W W W. E U R O W E E K LY N E W S . C O M THE 28-day non-smoking challenge, Stoptober, has come to an end, which apparently makes those of you who took part five times more likely to quit for good. You are now carbon monoxide free, can breathe easier, and reap the benefits of improvements to lung function and circulation. Unfortunately, aesthetic improvements are more difficult to naturally recover. Smokers are more susceptible to premature ageing, sagging skin, stained teeth and hair loss. So why not reward your smoke-free body with a new healthier look. As a consequence of smoking, teeth yellow, discolour and stain due to the tar and nicotine contained within cigarettes. The porous properties of teeth mean these products are easily absorbed, often penetrating stains deep into the tooth enamel making them stubborn to remove. Using an activated charcoal toothpaste such as White Glo’s Charcoal Deep Stain Remover Toothpaste easily eradicates pestering tooth stains. This specialist formula uses high absorbent charcoal technology to instantly trap coloured particles, bad breath and

against cavities. Smoking exposes your skin to 4,000 chemicals making it even
more damaging than sunbathing. Premature ageing is one of the main reasons smokers look 1.4 years older than their actual age. Nicotine contained within cigarettes causes vasoconstriction, the narrowing of arteries which limits the blood supply to smaller blood vessels. This suboptimal blood supply deprives the skin of anti-oxidants, moisture, oxygen and vitamin C which help to keep skin looking healthy, young and supple. A smoker’s skin is also subject to sagging and wrinkles due to a high exposure to free radicals which break down collagen and elastin. Rejuvenate your skin by consuming foods with a high concentration of antioxidants such as spinach, almonds and oranges to support collagen production and improve skin elasticity. Moisturise daily and drink plenty of water to quench the thirst of your dehydrated skin.
Ankles - a ‘sprain’ or something more? OUT walking, on the playing field or tennis court, you fall and hurt your ankle. Annoying and painful, definitely. But now what? Feet up on the couch or off to A&E? These tests, called the Ottawa Ankle Rules, are designed to eliminate people who do NOT have an ankle/foot fracture and thus, do not need an X-ray!! • Can you take four steps (limping is allowed!)? NO get an X-ray • Do you have tenderness/ pain around your medial or lateral malleoli (the little bone bumps on either side of your ankle)? YES - get an X-ray • Do you have tenderness/ pain around the base of the fifth metatarsal (bump on the outside edge of your foot be-
By Estelle Mitchell www.thebodyworksclinic.com low your little toe)? YES get an X-ray • Do you have tenderness/ pain around your navicular bone? (bump on the inside of your foot, underneath your ankle crease)? YES - get an X-ray Results Just because you can’t take four steps or you are tender in these places does NOT mean you definitely have a fracture - just it’s worth checking. It’s hard to see strained ligaments so X-rays (and MRIs) are looking for something
broken. If it’s not broken then relax! Go home, rest the foot for 24 hours and apply ice. What next? Get support - a physical support can help keep you mobile and, most importantly, stop you limping (which causes all kinds of problems later on). Always make sure your support is chosen and fitted by a professional. Get treatment - some physiotherapy will help to ease the pain and inflammation and Magnetic Resonance Therapy (MRT) can help to strengthen and regenerate the ligaments for more serious injuries. Prevention - a review of your footwear and small adjustments to your training routine can prevent a recurrence.

Tasty fat burning fruits WHAT you eat is just as important as what you don’t eat,when it comes to reducing body weight. Fortunately, eating fruit is a great way to burn fat and keep cravings for sweet stuff at bay. Research carried out by the World Health Organisation, American Heart Association and Dietry Guidelines for Americans among others, has confirmed that fruit intake is positively related to weight loss. Fruits contain very few calories, whilst also being crammed with vital nutrients to keep stomachs full for longer. Fruits can be enjoyed during breakfast, lunch, dinner, or as a snack for in-between meal munchies. Studies have also shown that eating specific fruits help burn fat more efficiently. Here are some of the more effective fatburning fruits. Apples are the most fibrerich sources found in nature. Studies show that fibre is an integral part of reducing visceral

Excess heat can cause halitosis THE long, hot summer days are almost behind us, but have you ever wondered what happens to the body in extreme heat? Some people love the sultry conditions and overload of vitamin D, but for others it can wreak havoc with the body. Hot weather can cause some painful chafing, unavoidable sweaty armpits and sleepless nights of relentless tossing and turning. Then there’s the hayfever. But it can also give you bad breath. Excessive heat can cause you to dehydrate, which has been proven to have the unsexy side effect of halitosis.When the mouth becomes dry, bacteria accumulates due to a lack of saliva to wash it away. During summer months, the body loses more water naturally through sweating. This coupled with an increase in the use of hayfever medications, fad summer dieting, and increase in outdoor exercising and over exposure to the sun, can also make the problem worse. It is advisable to drink plenty of water, not just to combat bad breath, but to keep other body organs functioning well. On a positive note, a healthy amount of sun can actually strengthen bones, as vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium, commonly linked to strong bones. BAD BREATH: Caused by dehydration.

Better good advice than a poor buy THE Home Inspector Spain presents a unique service: The home buyer’s guide as a house inspector. Because the error is in the details. We talked to Benno Bühler, an RICS London certified Building Surveyor and Chief Architect of Bühler & Partners MRICS | architects | surveyors | valuations, with a head office in Malaga. Benno has worked on the Costa del Sol since 1996 and is a certified real estate valuer (Arquitasa - Banco de España) and performs building and structural surveys or valuations even for the Spanish courts. Benno: Tell us what is a home inspector? What in the US is common and even mandatory, should be mandatory for GOOD ADVICE: If there is a problem, Benno will find it. foreign home
buyers in Andalucia as well. Who checks the structure, the house techniques and the general plan regulations? Who elaborates the snagging list, gives a value to the house and the building defects to be repaired? We do! But surely the real estate agent will help? A real estate manager is trained to do the deal and won’t necessarily give neutral advice. Any architect or professional may help as well? Yes! The Surveyor or Architect may realise a wonderful survey, delivered weeks later. But we can appear to visit the house on the same day and give a first impression of the price and value of the building. What do you include in your service? We inspect and create a snagging list (we will find any defects). Those construction defects are good arguments for us to lower the price. Compare this with buying a second-hand car (maybe with a ‘car Inspector’). The more scratches you find, the better you can negotiate the price. And your fees? Our service is available from as little as €350 plus a percentage of the savings we are able to negotiate. The more we bring down the price, the more we earn. This is a win-win for every party except the
seller. There is no better motivation for us to bring down the price! But I can negotiate the price on my own? You can, of course. But if the discussion comes to technical items, you may need more knowledge to argue. Eg if the aircon exterior unit is not certified for an exposition close to the beach (a real problem we discovered the other day, and saved €35,000 for our client). Would you be able to explain this detail to the seller? We can! And if the price is already agreed? We also have flat rate agreements. Do I need a lawyer for the purchase? We can manage the whole conveyancing process. But if a serious legal problem appears, we will recommend a competent lawyer to help. We don’t give legal advice. I see our service more as a complement to a lawyer, they do their legal checks and we do the technical checks.

Spirit of Dali remains in Figueres THE modern town of Figueres, Girona has a population of 45,000 people and from most angles looks very normal for northern Spain. The area can claim an eclectic history however being the birthplace of Narcis Monturiol, the inventor of the first motor powered submarine, and singer Monica Naranjo. The huge Castell de San Ferran dominates the town but no more than the presence of world famous Catalan surrealist Salvador Dali. The legacy of Dali can be felt over Figueres, even decades after his death. The Dali Theatre and Museum helps to preserve his heritage and if you have one day in the town this is one of the best places to visit. It is built on the site of a theatre where Dali’s first exhibitions took place which was destroyed by a fire during the Spanish Civil War. In the 1960s Dali decided to rebuild the monument and dedicate it to his works and inspirations. A visit to his museum will provide a vivid insight into the ec-

Instead the museum houses many pieces from Dali’s private collection, which are no less impressive, and together constitute the single largest collection of Dali works in the world by far. To truly understand the artist, a trip to this museum is essential. Included in the pieces on display are paintings, sculptures, collages, mechanical creations and other items which display Dali’s vivid imaginings. Other artist’s works do feature in the museum. A Frida Kahlo exhibition recently ended and numerous surrealist displays of art by artists in Dali’s private collection are permanent features.

Nick Horne The Rich Pick Freelance correspondent, London, England JUST 50 pre-1917 Imperial Eggs completed, these exceptional creations are some of the most valuable and coveted objects ever to have been made. Now in a contemporary fashion, a new Fabergé Egg has been created. Two of the world’s most esteemed houses of luxury have joined forces to create one unique object for one discerning patron. Rolls-Royce Motor Cars and Fabergé announced the ‘Spirit of Ecstasy’ Fabergé Egg. For the first time in history, an example of the Spirit of Ecstasy, the mascot of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars since 1911, is cocooned in an exquisite, contemporary, Fabergé Egg. The design, conceived by RollsRoyce Designers Stefan Monro and Alex Innes and rendered by Fabergé Lead Designer Liisa Talgren, has been brought to life by Fabergé workmaster Paul Jones, creating a contemporary interpretation of one of the world’s most fabled and prized possessions. Sean Gilbertson, Chief Executive Officer, Fabergé said, “A unique moment in both our companies’ history, the creation of the ‘Spirit of Ecstasy’ Egg represents the meeting of two masters of unrivalled quality and design, showcasing two globally recognised symbols - the Fabergé Egg and the Spirit of Ecstasy.” The commissioning of a Rolls-Royce Motor Car is often a seminal moment for the patron, so

EGG-CELLENT: This intrinsic design is contemporary and unique. too is the commissioning of a Fabergé Egg. This Egg is destined for a great collector of both brands. A team of seven craftspeople from Fabergé undertook the challenge of fabricating the design using the finest materials, and extraordinary skill as artist jewellers. At first glance, the Egg is unmistakable in its character. Design cues from Fabergé’s heritage
are masterfully woven into the intricate design which stands at 160mm and weighs just 400g, with the Egg harnessing the ‘surprise and delight’ attributes for which Imperial Eggs are celebrated. The Egg rests on an engine-turned, hand-engraved, purple enamel guilloché base of 18-carat white gold. Rose gold arms define the shape, acting as a protective chamber for the Egg’s precious inhabitant. Upon operating the movement via a discreet
lever at the base of the stand, a sense of theatre ensues as the boughs open to present the fine figurine of the Spirit of Ecstasy, hand-sculpted in frosted rock crystal, standing nobly in her opulent surrounds. The rose gold vanes, embellished with nearly 10 carats of round white diamonds, resolve into swathes of natural amethyst weighing over 390 carats, selected for its colour saturation and quality. The purple hue of the enamel and amethyst provide a playful nod to the use of colour found in Fabergé’s heritage. Torsten Müller-Ötvös, CEO of Rolls-Royce, said “The Spirit of Ecstasy Fabergé Egg was born from an intrinsic desire to further the realms of Bespoke personalisation. Responding to the continuing demands of patrons in search of unique, cherished possessions, a designer at the House of Rolls-Royce sketched an Egg, igniting a fascination that will undoubtedly become one of the most collectable items of modern times.” The Egg was first displayed at Rolls-Royce Motor Cars in Goodwood, England, to a gathering of guests on October 23. The Egg will be on public display in Fabergé’s London shop window at Christmas, seeking one careful owner. Nick Horne, London, England.

RDMC’s - much more than glass curtains FOR top quality glass curtains, stainless steel, windows and doors, bi-folds, pool surrounds and steel structures with roofs look no further then RDMC’s. They understand the importance of painstaking attention to detail, and as a family-run business they have the commitment to keep control of the whole process from manufacturing to delivery and fitting. Not for them the buying in of ready-to-go one size fits all systems - everything is made to measure in their own well-equipped factories. Showing their commitment to supplying the best product, they even have their own glass toughening plant. This means that the complete glass curtain system, including the glass, is manufactured under one roof to the highest standards. The glass curtain system that they manufacture is a German design called Sunflex. As is to be expected from a German system, much time and thought has gone into the product, making it one of the best (if not the best) systems available on the market today. It is completely different to other systems that are a similar cost in that it is top hung. This means the weight of the glass is distributed evenly and does not leave the glass sitting on the bottom, rubbing metal frame against metal.
By using stainless steel wheels and stainless steel thrust needle bearings a long pain-free life is assured for the curtains. Each panel of glass has four holes drilled into it so that the profile can be bolted to the glass as well as glued for extra security and stability. This is the only system to do this, all other systems are merely glued to the profile. Other companies will claim that a bottom hung system is better, however as manufacturers who make their own glass and understand the weight that is involved per square metre for 10mm glass, they know the best way for a system to function correctly. It is to hang the glass so as not to impose such weight and strain onto the system below, which could otherwise cause scraping and juddering over a period of time and with regular use. The system RDMC’s uses has undergone many tests including an opening and closing test of over 10,000 cycles and also a wind test of up to 2,000 Pascals - all the test documentation can be viewed at their offices. RDMC’s also make UPVC and aluminium windows, doors and bi-folds. Their aluminium is a thermal break system which prevents condensation in the interior parts of the system. All windows can either be single, double or triple glaze, also with any type of UV preventive glass. They can have above or below ground profiles for a seamless effect. They manufacture bi-folds
TOP QUALITY: Glass curtains, windows and doors. in a range of systems which can be hinged or unhinged. Their UPVC system is steel reinforced with a foam insert integrated into the UPVC - again the glass available is the same as the aluminium and both are available with three-point locking systems.

A special feature of the exhibition will be a replica Army Recruitment Office from the period. The exhibits will be divided into several sections. The murder of Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand and Countess Sophie Chotek, which triggered the conflict, opens the exhibition. The second section is specifically about Gibraltar and will cover both mi l i t a r y a n d c i v ilia n life .

The list includes Miles Davis, George Benson, John McLaughlin, Gil Evans, John Scofield, George Duke, Grover Washington, Roberta Flack, Peter Gabriel, James Brown and Quincy Jones.

Travel MENTION the Balearic Islands in conversation with anyone and the majority of people will immediately only think of Mallorca and Ibiza. However, geography students and travel experts will know that their often forgotten neighbours of Menorca and Formentera have their own individual attractions on offer. Menorca (or Minorca) takes its name from its size when contrasting it to the nearby island of Mallorca. With a population of roughly 95,000, Menorca is particularly well known for its traditional summer fiestas, with the biggest held at the end of June during the ‘Festes de Sant Joan.’ Spanish fiestas in general are known for their strange and unusual traditions that are often on display during their local parades, and Menorca certainly has one of the more off-beat among them. On the first day of the three-day festival, a man carries a freshly groomed sheep on his shoulders and parades it around the streets! The production of wine has been a major part of the local
Menorca and Formentera - the forgotten islands?
QUAINT: Ciutadella Port in Menorca... a hidden gem. economy of Menorca since ancient times. However, over the past 100 years or so, the industry saw a severe decline which has now been reversed again thanks
to the number of new microwineries that have started up. When it’s said that the Spanish islands are invaded by Brits (on their holidays, of course), in the
case of Menorca it’s also historically true, since the Royal Navy invaded the island in 1708 during the War of Spanish Succession. This long-standing British influ-
ence may well explain the Menorcans’ love of gin, and during the local fiestas the spirit is mixed with bitter lemon and known as a Pomada. Nearby, just six kilometres south of Ibiza, is the island of Formentera. This really is the baby of the Balearics, with a resident population of around 9,000 on an island that is only 19 kilometres long. Politically, there is only one municipality on the island imaginatively called Formentera - and the island has a number of major villages such as Sant Francesc Xavier, Sant Ferran de ses Roques, El Pilar de la Mola and La Savina. It is believed that its name derives from the Latin word ‘frumentarium’ which means granary, and many time-served tourists say that Formentera is ‘what Ibiza was 20 years ago.’ Extra connections from the Spanish mainland and inter-islands have developed the tourist trade although still remains popular for naturists who use the long sandy beaches for an ‘all-over tan.’

Let the worms do the job AS autumn sets in and the leaves turn, most gardeners tend to follow traditional advice and get out the spade to dig over the garden. It’s a long held belief that this aerates the soil, reduces weeds and boosts fertility, an unquestioned annual tradition. But apparently, when tested scientifically, the backbreaking job has often failed to deliver such benefits, and in some cases may have had the exact opposite effect. Digging, in particular the practice of ‘double digging’, is one of the most timeconsuming and physically demanding jobs in horticulture. Though on very heavily compacted soils (such as those that have been trodden on when wet) it can improve the crumblike structure and introduce beneficial air pockets, but studies have shown that in most cases this practice does more harm than good. Helpfully, the natural action of earthworms in soil create the perfect structure and fill it with little, air-filled channels, which digging apparently destroys. Rather than keeping weeds at bay, digging brings seeds to the surface, stimulating their germination.
CLEAN HOUSE: A big plus when trying to sell.
Avoid too much clutter
MULCH: Spreading compost is more effective than digging. Digging can break the long roots of bindweed, which actually helps cultivate them by turning them into root cuttings that can then spread. As experts learn more about the importance of beneficial microbes to soil fertility, they are discovering that a lot are killed by digging, particularly by exposure to sunlight when the soil is turned. So, what’s the alternative? Studies
show that applying a layer of organic matter such as a mulch over the top of the soil, about 10cm thick, gives good results. This can be anything from home-made compost to leaf mould or wood chippings. Friendly bacteria apparently breaks down the mulch, which is then drawn down into the soil by worms, increasing the population of these organisms that in turn do the digging.
MORE than a third of house viewers would walk away from an untidy property which is crammed with personal items, according to a new study. Other unattractive characteristics that can ruin a sale include patterned or bright wallpaper, vinyl flooring, chandeliers and unbelievably, toilet seats. The research, carried out by Privilege Home Insurance, also revealed that cleanliness was the overall
winner when home buyers were asked what would prompt a second viewing and perhaps a sale. This was followed by outdoor space, a walk-in wardrobe and kitchen storage. Surprisingly, the findings suggest that women are 10 per cent more likely to point out structural issues, damp, bad lighting, a lack of natural light, storage and outdoor issues, as well as bad DIY jobs.
Mood enhancing and visual EVERY home should have a piece of art, and there are reasons why. Affordable, quick and easy, it can transform the style of a room and make it feel more elegant, luxurious or quirky, while adding personality to a bland space. It doesn’t have to cost the earth, and a canvas, art print or vin t a g e p a i n t i n g ca n make a huge difference. Art creates a focal point, like a fireplace, which is a design rule when it comes to interiors. The aim is to draw the eye to something attractive, preferably in the centre of the room. A b a l a n c e b e t w ee n colour, texture and depth is another good interior design concept, and hanging art on the wall adds an extra visual layer to the scheme. It can also help create a mood. R e d o r o r a n g e colours work well when trying to create a lively or energetic feel, while greens and blues have a relaxing,

Stop the milk!
David THE Dogman columnists@ewnmediagroup.com
AT one time fish was thought to be a major cause of skin disease in cats. Now we have all come to realise that the flea is the main culprit when it comes to skin irritation in cats and dogs. However not many pet owners are aware that out pets suffer food allergies which can cause dermatological discomfort. In fact according to Nigel Taylor the Express vet, 1 per cent of all skin problems in cats and dogs are caused by dietary allergies. Allergen reactions may be triggered in minutes, hours or days. Once an allergy to a protein is established, sensitivity is often lifelong. Dogs are mostly sensitive to beef and milk, while cats often do not get on with beef, milk or fish. Some dogs can digest the lactose in cow’s milk. Give a pet dog or cat milk and the undigested lactose provokes an upset stomach in no time. This is not a true allergy but demonstrates how sensitive to certain food pets can be. Stop the milk and your pet’s life will look up immediately. Most pets will react in some way by “CATS don’t like change without their consent” - Roger Caras Cats miss us when we go away, it’s true! It’s hard to imagine cats growing sentimental or getting attached, however, our pet owners tell us they do. One cat owner we know swears that the minute the suitcase appears on

BAD IDEA: Steer away from feeding your dog milk.
incorrect feeding and apart from allergic reactions one can expect flatulence and inconsistent stool quality and large smelly motions. Incorrect feeding can cause failure to put on weight and certainly if the balance of the food is not correct a display of hyperactivity or indeed low activity can result. Most animals can be assessed by their coat and skin vitality. There is always a possibility that the protein is being utilised for energy with a subsequent loss of health and vitality. Many owners give far too many vitamins and one should remember that a well-balanced diet should not have to be supplemented. Ritualistic scratching and licking could well indicate that there is an allergic reaction to the food and the eating of grass, twigs and roots sometimes is an indication that the food is not being digested properly. Tissue stealing and fibre based destruction could be another indication that there is a craving for fibre to help the digestive process in some way. It is a good idea to speak to your vet about feeding pets and to make things easy for you there are many good commercial dried pet foods with selected proteins like lamb and chicken that are unlikely to cause allergy already in them.

GERMAN EFFICIENCY: The 8- series defines luxurious sportiness.
SPONSORED BY
MOTORING www.euroweeklynews.com
Robert McNamara was President of Ford for 10 weeks in 1960, before taking up the role of J F Kennedy’s Secretary of Defence in January 1961. BMW has set out the 8-series as a piece of high-performance automotive art - with the emphasis on performance. It debuted at the Villa d’Este classic car gathering in Italy, followed in quick succession by appearances at the Goodwood Festival of Speed and the Pebble Beach concours d’elegance. This is actually BMW’s
BMW 8-Series Brawn and beauty second attempt at the idea. The previous E31 8-series was sold between 1989 and 1999. Styled by Klaus Kapitza, it was one of the first cars to be designed with Computer Aided Design (CAD). While he defends a big
diesel for environmental long journeys, Pieter Nota, BMW’s sales and marketing director, admits that in Europe big capacity internal combustion engines may be time-limited. Two engines are available when the 8-series goes on sale next March, the first being a 316bhp six-cylinder turbo-diesel costing €86,000 and reaching 155mph. The piece de resistance however, is the M850i xDrive, which will cost €112,000 but boasts a 523 bhp, 4.4 litre, biturbo V8, driving all four wheels through a specially adapted eight-speed automatic transmission.
It also has a modified version of the xDrive multiplate clutch to direct torque to the front axle when it is required for stability, or to save cremating the rear tyres. Equipment levels are predictably high, with BMW’s roster of driving aids in the petrol version with M suspension and adaptive damping, active variable-ratio steering and an active limited-slip differential. The standard specification is also high, with those inscrutable LED headlamps, auto-opening hatchback, Harman Kardon speakers, enhanced Bluetooth and intelligent cruise control. With the double-wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension, the settings in comfort mode and all the safety sentinels switched on, you’ll only be aware that there’s a razor-sharp V8 under the bonnet if you floor it. It’s quick too, and not just with the throttle to the floor; the auto gearbox allows the torque to effortlessly waft the 8-series along at a zippy pace. If the steering feels cumbersome with the hefty wheel rim, dial in sport and the feel gains weight and precision. The brakes are excellent and use the same diameter rotors front and rear, but with fixed, four-piston calipers at the front and floating, two piston calipers at the rear.

Driving the debate PEOPLE believe self-driving cars should spare young people over the elderly, a study has found. Research by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, published in the journal Nature, found that respondents were most likely to want an autonomous car heading for a crash, to prioritise humans over pets, and to spare young people and large groups where possible. The university’s Moral Machine test involved asking millions of respondents across 233 countries what their ethical preferences were. In the exercise, users were shown unavoidable accident simulations and had asked to choose the morally preferable outcome by deciding whether the vehicle should swerve or stay on course. However, programming driverless cars with preferences based on age, gender, physical or mental constitution would go against rules drawn up last year by the German ethics commission. It concluded that ‘any distinction between individuals based on personal features is impermissible.’ But the research warned that manufacturers who do not programme cars to save
SENSORY PERCEPTION: A Velodyne LiDAR sensor mounted on a self-driving vehicle. children over older people should prepare themselves for the ‘strong backlash that will inevitably occur the day an autonomous vehicle sacrifices children in a dilemma situation.’ A pram was most likely to be spared, with a girl second, followed by a boy and a pregnant woman. Those least likely to be spared were cats, criminals and dogs.
There is even potential for a backlash from owners who want their car to prioritise their life over all others. Although companies like Google, Uber and Tesla have all begun testing the technology, fully self-driving cars are still in development and not yet available to own. One thing is for certain, the philosophical and ethical debates around this will continue.

Hyundai Nexo: An easy cell THE Hyundai Nexo hydrogen fuel cell vehicle has been awarded five-stars in Euro NCAP testing, winning praise from crash testers and earning a top spot among alternative-fuel vehicles. Experts at Thatcham Research, a British safety organisation which conducts Euro NCAP, commended the Nexo’s occupant protection score of 94 per cent - the highest of any zero-emission vehicle - and autonomous emergency braking systems (AEB). Matthew Avery, Director of Research at Thatcham said: “Wi t h t he NEXO, Hyundai have successfully demonstrated that alternative fuelled vehicles need not pose a risk to car safey.” Fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV’s) turn hydrogen into electricity, which is used to turn the wheels. The only tailpipe emis-
sion is pure, drinkable water and t he hydr ogen can be generated using renewable energy such as wind or solar. Advantages over conventional battery-electric vehicles include enhanced range (the Nexo will travel over 400 m i l es on a si ngl e charge) and r echargi ng times of only a few minutes rather than hours. Nevertheless, the cost of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles is high, and refuelling infrastructure in the UK is still fairly weak. Mi chi el van Rat i ngen, secretary general of Euro NCAP said: “The fuel cell NEXO and hybrid (Lexus) ES point the way for future powertrains and Euro NCAP will work to ensure that safet performance as well as energy efficiency remains at the top of the manufacturer’s agenda.”

From Bath it started T l e a st , t h a t’s what they used to say in the 1970’s and 1980’s when the famous Lombard RAC Rally used to start there. What an amazing event that was, and what a fabulous atmosphere was created by this legendary world championship rally in those days . Mo r e sp e c t a to rs w ould t u r n o u t t h e n to watch the spectacle of some of the best drivers and rally cars in the world than the combin e d t o t a l s o f e v ery other major sporting event of the time put together! The city of Bath would be packed full of drivers, navigators, spectators, service crews, trailers, tow-cars, marshal s, p r e ss, T V an d goodness knows what else. So, imagine that the great name of Lombard could be reunited with the city of Bath, and a major car event carrying that name as principal sponsor would again be based in the city. Some 125 rally cars with 250 crew from that period would reunite in Great Poultney Street to start the Lombard Bath Rally. Well, it happened last weekend and the event was a huge success. The b r a i n c h i l d o f Tim Nash, the event would be a kind of homage to the RAC rallies o f t h e 1 9 7 0 ’s a n d 1980’s and would attract a full en t r y o f 1 2 5 p e rio d (mostly!) rally cars, some driven by drivers who competed i n R AC r a l l i e s o f those days and some driven by yo u n g e r e n t h u sia s ts proud to still carry the original na m e s o f t h e ca rs ’ crews on their wings. Such rallying luminaries as Jim m y Mc R a e , S tig Blomqvist, Louise Aitken, Dai Llewellin, Rosemary S mith, Ji l l R o b i n so n a n d many mo r e t u r n e d o u t to drive cars they once campaigned professionally all those years ago.
A
Ian Giles with co-driver Bob Rutherford with the GilesRutherford Escort Mk.2.
I a m p lea s e d to te ll you that this writer was also out on the event, n o t in a fac to ry Triu mp h T R 7 V 8 b u t, much to even my surprise, in a beautifully p rep are d G ro u p 4 F o rd E s co rt M k . 2 from 1979. T h e ev en t c o u ld not, realistically, be a properly timed, flat-out competitive rally but would be more of a ‘Tour’ that would visit many of the special stages that were used on RAC rallies in the area back in those halcyon days. At 8.01am last Saturday morning the first of the cars pulled out of the Bath Spa H o te l an d h e a d ed fo r the Great Poultney Street start holding area and waited for the marshals countdown to begin their reacquaintance
with the first of the special stages, Longleat Park, just outside Bath. I was amazed at the numbe r of e xc ite d s pe c ta tors who lined the route, waving and taking photographs, just like the real RAC the last time I w a s the re in 1978. How long ago that seemed but how fresh in the memory it felt that morning! We were blessed with the mos t fa bulous w e a the r which was unexpected but it
made the whole event fe e l s o muc h be tte r. The s un w a s s hining, people were out to enjoy the event and it probably was a big factor in the success of it all. Following a drive through Longleat, crews headed for the famous wildlife park at C ric ke t St Thoma s ne a r C ha rd in Some rs e t. This was a stage that produced mixe d e motions for me , having won the rally that was run there on several occasions but also lost the life
there of a very close pal in one of my own rally cars. Thus it was something of a bitter-sweet m om ent when we arr i ved t her e r eady t o start our run through the park. It’s amazing though how the dropping of the marshal’s flag focuses t he m i nd on driving as quickly as possible and I thoroughly enjoyed harnessing and using some of the Escort’s 280 horsepower! Fr om her e, and af t er a well earned coffee, the cars headed for Wiscombe Hillclimb, near Honiton in Devon. The hill was just as I remembered it and it was a pleasure to drive in front of so many enthusiastic and friendly spectators, including a couple from The Classic Car Club of Andalucia! That was such a blast and t hen t he r out e headed t o Mi nehead f or l unch and, again, the place was packed
wi t h ent husi ast i c spectators wanting to see the cars, collect autographs and chat to the drivers and navigators. The best part of the event followed with a really fast run up the fabulous Porlock Toll Road, closed especially for the event as it was all those years ago. It was slippery at the bottom and a bit t r eacher ous f ur t her up where a hairpin left claimed the front wing of McRae’s Opel Mant a. Our Escor t went extremely well up here and both myself and co-driver, Bob Rutherford, thoroughly enjoyed it! Qui t e a l ong and ver y pretty road section followed with cars climbing Cheddar Gorge before returning to Bat h wher e cel ebr at i ons went on in fine style until the small hours. I r em em ber ed j ust how good those after-rally parties were. And this one was just like those amazing days of yesteryea... I can’t wait to do it again!

scored a scrappy goal, ending Liverpool’s hopes of extending their run of clean sheets at home to 10 matches. Having also drawn two matches, Liverpool’s current total of 26 points matches their tally from the 2008-9 campaign, when they finished second. The free-scoring Merseyside club have a testing tie at Arsenal on Saturday, while Cardiff will travel to Leicester City. Crystal Palace captain Luka Milivojevic scored twice from the penalty spot to earn his side a dramatic 2-2 draw and end Arsenal’s 11 game winning run. Granit Xhaka’s sublime free-kick had drawn Arsenal level at 1-1, but late in the game he brought down Wilfred Zaha in the box and Milivojevic made no mistake again.
Arsenal had earlier taken the lead when Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang poked home off the inside of the post, with the ball going over the line but just 9mm. Manchester United edged past Everton 2-1 to move within five points of the Premier League’s top four. A Gylfi Sigurdsson penalty late on proved in vain for the Toffees, after earlier strikes from Paul Pogba and Anthony Martial. It was a crucial win for United who cannot afford to drop points in their pursuit of Champions League football next season. The Red Devils will next travel to Bournemouth on Saturday, while Everton will host Brighton. Other fixtures this weekend will see Newcastle face Watford, Wolves entertain Tottenham and Southampton travel to Man City.

Barca blow Real away LUIS SUAREZ scored a hat-trick as Barcelona outclassed Real Madrid to seal a rampant 5-1 El Clasico victory, piling further pressure on embattled manager Julen Lopetegui. It was a memorable Barca performance, with other goals coming from Coutinho and Vidal. In a brief period of resistance in the second half, Real pulled a goal back through Marcelo, but this was an otherwise abject display from a side that has lost its aura. Real now trail Barca by seven points and find themselves ninth in the table after 10 matches. Barca will next travel to Rayo Vallecano, while Real will host Real Valladolid. Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid beat Real Sociedad to briefly go top of the La Liga table. Diego Godin smashed them into the lead from close range, and half-time substitute Filipe Luis curled home from the edge of the box. However, results that followed after meant that Atletico slip back to fourth, but are very much in the title race at this stage. They will next travel to Leganes, while Real Sociedad will host Sevilla.

The England midfielder scored a goal himself and set up two more for Morata and Willian, as the Blues made light work of their struggling opponents. Ruben Loftus-Cheek, who scored a mid-week hat-trick in the Europa League, added a fourth in injury time to seal the win. Chelsea will next host Crystal Palace, while Burnley will travel to West Ham. Sadio Mane’s brace, plus Mohamed Salah’s strike and substitute Xherdan Shaqiri’s first goal for the club, sealed a 4-1 victory for Liverpool against Cardiff City.

San Roque - new fantastic winter deal CostaLessGolf Weekly News with
Ron Garrood THE San Roque Club located in San Roque, Cadiz is one of Europe’s most exclusive golfing Country Clubs. It sits on an enviable backdrop surrounded by lush hills and historic cork oak woods. Formerly the summer residence of the Domecq sherry dynasty, the club opened in 1991, quickly making a name for itself as one of Europe’s elite golf courses. The San Roque Club offers two courses which are as fun to play as they are beautiful. Designed by the legendary Dave Thomas, the sensational Old Course is the pride of the club and is rated amongst the finest courses in Europe and always within the top five in Spain. In 2003, San Roque opened a further 18 holes and so the New Course was born. The course designed by Perry Dye and Seve Ballesteros is a perfect contrast to the Old as it is extremely different in design, yet presents the same challenges.
SAN ROQUE: An exclusive course. The difference between Old and New is mostly in the Dye-family shaping: big, steep bunkering, larger greens and railroad sleepers. The course resembles a Links in many areas although it is a parkland course. The New Course was the venue for the Spanish Open in 2006 and the Qualifying School Finals from 2003 - 2007. The San Roque Club also offers excellent practice facilities and a golf academy. Now is the perfect opportunity to play San Roque New as CostaLessGolf has an amazing offer for two players inc shared buggy for only €118, valid until 28/02/19.

Jake Connor was held up over the line wide out, but was deemed to have been fouled in the act of scoring, so England were awarded a penalty try to level matters at a tense 12-12. Johnson and Connor traded penalties in the third quarter before the former edged New Zealand back in front after Tom Burgess was caught offside.

Rugby League: England edge Kiwis in opener
Hamilton wins fifth F1 title FAMOUS FIVE: Hamilton celebrates his superb fifth title. LEWIS HAMILTON has won his fifth F1 World Championship, making him the joint second most successful driver of all time. The 33-year-old becomes only the third man in history to win five world titles and draws level with Argentinian legend Juan Manuel Fangio. Only the peerless Michael Schumacher stands ahead of him with seven titles, and that total will be the Briton’s next target. Hamilton needed only to finish seventh at Sunday’s Mexican Grand Prix to become champion, even if Sebastian Vettel had won. However, the German Ferrari driver could only manage second place behind the dominant Max Verstappen, despite a strong and determined race. Hamilton battled tyre problems throughout a
difficult race, but his finishing position of fourth was more than enough to reach his memorable milestone. At the end of the race, Hamilton celebrated in the traditional way with a series of ‘doughnut’ spins in the track’s stadium section before waving to the capacity 135,000 crowd. “To complete this, when Fangio has done it with Mercedes, it is an incredible moment,” Hamilton said. “It was a horrible race, I was just trying to bring the car home.” Vettel broke off from his post-race interview to congratulate his rival, as the two men showed their respect for each other after another intense battle. Vettel said: “They did a superb job all year we need to stand there and accept that.”
