MASKS A MUST
SO, it looks like we should get used to wearing face masks, as just as they are obligatory to wear in Spain during the current State of Alarm measures, they look to play a major part in the forthcoming ‘new normality.’ The Council of Ministers approved on Tuesday June 9 the decree of measures for the new normality. In principle, this period will last until there is a vaccine or an effective treatment against Covid-19. Face masks will be mandatory and fines for failing to comply will be up to €100. The communities must be prepared for another o u t b r e a k . H o w e v e r, there will be no movement restriction or limit
signed seat for possible contagion traces. In workplaces, it will have to be ensured that the distance between workers can be kept to 1.5 metres and accesses organised so that there are no concentrations when entering or leaving. Now that the proposal has been approved it was published yesterday, Wednesday, June 10, in the BOE with full details.
NEW STAGE: Face masks look to play a major part in the new normality. of people who can meet. Health Minister Salvador Illa has repeated that residents must “lear n to live with the virus.” This new stage will begin when the State of Alarm ends on
June 21. The control of the Covid-19 will rest, in this new normality, on prevention. “Individual responsibility will be key,” said Salvador Illa. Hence rules stated by Illa live on TV such as the use of face masks when it is not possible to maintain a physical distance of 1.5 metres with other people in public or private places and the repetitive insistence to take care of “hand hygiene
and respiratory etiquette” in addition to “common sense,” which is regularly reiterated by the director of the Centro de Emergencias Sanitaria, Fernando Simón. Even without restrictions on mobility, those responsible for public transport must take measures to avoid crowds of passengers.

THE Tourism Department of the Mijas Town Hall, coordinated by the mayor, José Carlos Martín, has launched the first part of its promotional campaign to revive industry in the town. During confinement, the local children have recorded home videos for The Three Kings. “The minors have dressed up, danced, sang and laughed while making their recordings. We are happy to see that they had fun in moments as delicate as those we have had to live through,” adds Martín. More than a hundred children have participated in this campaign which can be seen on social networks. Under the motto ‘Mijas, Volver a Vivir’ this tourist campaign is based on the excitement of resuming all leisure, sports and cultural activities that were suspended due to the pandemic. The videos point out the main tourist attractions of Mijas such as the sun and beach, golf, sport, nature, gastronomy and crafts. “This year we Spaniards are going to enjoy holidays in our country more than ever and, therefore, we want everyone to see the benefits offered on the Costa del Sol,” concluded Martín.
Kids cinema fun IN an effort to give children in particular some entertainment now they are allowed out, Estepona Council will be hosting an open-air cinema outside the Felipe VI Auditorium with tickets costing €4 initially. It is hoped by September, screenings will take place inside the Auditorium depending upon the health climate then.

New campaign Social housing
COMMUNITY SUPPORT: Mayor, Ana Mula hands over the keys to one of the rental homes. O N Tu e s d a y J u n e 9 , the mayor of Fuengirola, Ana Mula, handed over the keys to the 16 social rental homes to as many low-income families in the town, as well as those of the shared home for nine over 60s, within the Social Housing Plan which the local institution had started. All of the homes are lo-
cated on Calle Salvador Rodríguez Navas, where the town hall has used just over a million euros to build a property in which to provide a housing alternative to these two vulnerable areas of the Fuengirola population. “We live in difficult times, so this project, which we started a little over two years ago, has become more neces-
sary than ever. “Today we give a push to 16 families in our town who are going through a bad economic time and who need help to find a way for them to get ahead again. “In order for them to succeed, they will have the support of their town hall offering them a roof at an affordable price,” explained Mula.
€25 Gift Vouchers
FREE VOUCHERS: The council is trying to stimulate trade. IN a bid to stimulate local commerce, the Estepona Council has decided to make 4,000 free gift vouchers, each worth €25 available by ballot to local residents. They will be distributed on June 25 and must be used within 15 days or they will return to the ballot and the only requirements are that total spend must be €45 and must be with a local business registered with the council. Commercial establishments interested in taking part in this initiative should register on the campaign website: https://compraen.estepona.es/ no later than June 22 and to be eligible they must have been closed during the lockdown period and are registered in the town. Overall, the council has budgeted €180,000 to try to stimulate trade in Estepona.

Beaches for the vulnerable THE Mijas municipality has created three beach zones which will be exclusively enjoyed by individuals aged over 65, as they form part of the vulnerable risk group and are most susceptible to suffering from the Covid-19 virus. These beaches are: La Cala (El Torreon area), El Bombo and La Luna beaches. They will be marked by informative posters letting other residents know the purpose of these beaches. Mijas will also be controlling the coastal area with drones to ensure everyone is practising safe social distancing etiquette whilst on the beach.
Markets reopen OPEN AIR markets throughout the Costa del Sol are beginning to reopen. La Cala market is already open on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Benalmadena Arroyo de la Miel will open Friday June 12. Marbella market will open from Monday, June 15. Fuengirola market will open on Tuesday, June 16. However, there will be restrictions concerning the number of stalls that can be allowed. The emphasis will be on food and stallholders will have to apply for permission to take part as just 50 per cent of the usual number of places allocated will be available. If more than 50 per cent of capacity is applied for, then priority will be given to sellers of food, although the council hopes to see this as a kick start to a return to normality.

Quality Beaches
11 - 17 June 2020
LA FINCA Municipal El Portón, in Alhaurin de la Torre, has reopened to the public for visits to its gardens and exhibition halls. To resume its cultural agenda, the town hall has chosen a very special exhibition, entitled ‘Abrazo de Oso,’ inspired by some of the scenes seen during the confinement by the coronavirus, with animals taking to the streets of towns and cities, and places habitually frequented by people. This was explained by José Luis Ocaña, a local artist and illustrator who has promoted this initiative, with
the collaboration of another 30 artists from around the world. The result is an exhibition with more than 40 works of different styles, but with animals and people as protagonists, to claim a relationship of love and friendship between them and nature. Some of the illustrations are accompanied by short stories by the writer Silvana Alexandra Nosach. The exhibition can be visited until mid-September in the Sala de El Portón, a venue that reopened its doors this Monday with reduced opening hours: from 10am to 1.30pm.
Whilst the popular Lions Charity Shop in Calle Torremolinos has been closed during the pandemic the Lions funds have been depleted, but they have still been able to give financial help to deserving causes throughout the area. Now after the restrictions have been lifted, the shop has undergone a complete clean and refurbishment and it will reopen at 11am on Monday June 15.

WHEN tourists are allowed back into Spain, councils along the Costa del Sol will be vying with each other to try to persuade holidaymakers to choose their town or city in which to spend their money. One incentive will be the quality of the beaches on offer and the Association of Environmental and Consumer Education (ADEAC) has just announced the beaches which have been awarded the coveted Blue Flags of quality. The full list is as follows: Benalmadena - two beaches Casares Costa - one beach Estepona - two beaches Fuengirola - four beaches Marbella - five beaches Mijas - three beaches Torremolinos - one beach This recognition is hard won and means that each beach chosen has clean water, well kept sand, good lifeguard attention, is considered a safe, environmentally sound environment and has sufficient showers, waste bins and general beach furniture.
Charity Shop reopening DURING the lockdown, La Cala de Mijas Lions member, David Kay, grew a beard aiming to raise money for the Lions whilst the Charity Shop was closed. When Malaga Province entered into Phase 2, and bars were able to reopen, David planned an evening at the Times Bar in La Cala, where he and his friends enjoyed tapas and drinks. His beard was shaved off by Olivia Sibbles and the evening raised a grand total of €730 for the Lion’s funds.

the play offs between July 18 and 26 will be staying in local hotels, so this in itself is a shot in the arm for the local hospitality industry which is anxious to get back to normal. All of the teams will be training at the Marbella Football Centre at night and the actual matches will take place at a number of different venues. A further eight teams will also be fighting for promotion from the La Liga lowest divisions in the municipality in July.
MANY of Fuengirola’s residents may know of the homeless people who are usually located around Mercadona in Los Boliches. There is a gentleman there who owns a lovely black labrador Perla who just before lockdown had a litter of puppies. As a kind-hearted gesture the man gave one of his pups to an elderly lady who sleeps in the doorway of a chemist in Los Boliches as she had been lonely. However, last week a man and woman approached her and demanded that she should give the dog to them and she should not be allowed to keep the pup on the street, the elderly woman was left distraught but managed to keep the puppy from them. That night two burly men came back to where she sleeps and forcibly took the dog from her. The homeless lady is absolutely devastated and heartbroken. The puppy is a white Labrador cross with a black nose and black patches on its ears. Should anybody see the dog in the picture please get in touch with Local Police on 952 665 261.

Suspected killer Jogger mugged now arrested
SUSPECT CAUGHT: Thanks to the issue of an international arrest warrant. THE National Police has reported that thanks to an international search with cooperation from Sweden and a number of Middle Eastern countries a man believed to have murdered two people on the Costa del Sol has been arrested in Dubai. The suspect is of Danish/Iranian extraction and allegedly undertook
the shooting of a member of a drug gang as he emerged from a church in San Pedro Alcantara after attending his child’s first Holy communion in 2018. Following this murder, he is accused of a second shooting, this time in Estepona several months later and it is understood that members of his gang were also responsible for two ex-
plosions in Malaga Province. Having escaped a raid which caught a number of members of a ‘narco gang’ he went on the run, going first to Morocco and then making his way to the United Arab Emirates and it is thanks to the issue of an international arrest warrant that he was finally arrested by the Dubai authorities.
Puerto Banus back
AT the end of last year, Marbella mayor, Ángeles Muñoz helped Puerto Banus officials launch its 50th anniversary celebrations. Moving forward and 2020, which should have seen large numbers of visitors to the port, suffered the lockdown
and time stood still. Now as we emerge from the State of Alarm, the excitement is returning and the luxury shops will over the next few months be releasing special 50th anniversary products with the latest being Louis Vuitton.
Missing man found LAST week an appeal was put out by SOS Desaparecidos concerning the disappearance of Marbella resident Rubén Cobo Chinchilla, who is 38 and had not been seen since leaving work in Puerto Banus on the afternoon of Monday June 1. Happily, there was some good news as a hiker saw what appeared to be a fire in an open area of land towards the mountains and alerted the emergency services. When they arrived, they discovered the missing man who suffers from diabetes and because of his blood sugar level became disorientated and was lost for four days. Once they had identified him and realised what had happened, he was taken to a local medical centre for treatment.
A 46-YEAR-OLD victim was jogging around Torremolinos when he was violently attacked by four minors who tried to steal his phone. The man was caught off guard as he was jogging across el Pinar de los Manantiales in Torremolinos. Manuel sustained various injuries including several bruised ribs, an injured ear which was detached from the cartilage, trauma to both knees and back pain. Three of the minors were placed under arrest, two are Spanish and the third is Moroccan. He recalls how the police were able to intervene quickly and is thankful this didn’t happen to someone more vulnerable who could not defend themselves.
Locked away A 30-YEAR-OLD French man is under arrest for the crimes of domestic violence and illegal detention after he allegedly forced his ex-wife and children to move to Benalmadena. The ex-wife and the two children, a threeyear-old and a fouryear-old, were reportedly ‘forced to move to Spain’ against their will. The detainee had stolen her documentation and phone in order to ensure she would not escape. Officers went to the home where the woman and children were locked away after receiving information from the French Interior Office. Upon arrival they arrested the man who, according to his ex-wife, has a troubled history with the law in France due to crimes of domestic abuse.

For years he had a poster inside which effectively said that this restaurant is right wing, catholic and Spanish - if you don’t like it, don’t bother to come in.

Prices are not exorbitant, protective clothing is advised and insurance for electric bicycles in particular is much more easily obtainable. There are scales and balances to many relatively new concepts and with electric scooters in particular, riders have to be disciplined and be given guidelines of how and where they can ride.
CREATIVE MIND: Controversial Coronavirus shapes and figures. EXPAT Ted Armstrong, from La Cala de Mijas, has kept himself busy during the health pandemic by revisiting his art school days and returning to sculpting. The refrigeration engineer had extra time on his hands during isolation “I had a second-hand kiln and some clay I bought two years ago that was sitting wasting in the basement and decided to put them to use. I went to art school in the 90’s and got a degree in ceramics,” he went on to say that “the process felt very cathartic through the first few weeks of the lockdown.” Ted felt inspired by what was going on around him and has made some fantastic sculptures, some of which have had mixed reviews from pot-
tery groups who said it may be “too soon” or “insensitive” to make items based around the coronavirus. His most striking pieces are large teapots shaped like what has been suggested the Coronavirus may look like. He also has the brilliant ‘Mercadona Man,’ a figure wearing a full gas mask and carrying his shopping bags. His other pieces include tall buildings, to symbolise where most people have been stuck for the last couple of months. They are perfectly cut and moulded almost as if made out of wood but Ted assures me that, “they are also made from
clay and I made them as I have a great interest in architecture.” With his conf i d e n c e spurred on by the quality of what he has produced Ted hopes to make a career change and hopes to continue with his architectural pieces for his next project. Should anybody wish to find out more information or even to commission a piece they can email ted at armstrongted1@gmail.com.

Plasma trials EXCLUSIVE
By Damon Mitchell EURO WEEKLY NEWS spoke exclusively with London based Eleisha Rae Kennedy who is currently working with NHS Blood and Transplant. Up until the beginning of the Coronavirus health crisis, Eleisha was working as a tour guide showing tourists around London and places like the British Museum. However, she began to feel ill and decided to selfisolate. Luckily for her, her symptoms passed within around a week. “At that point, tour operators had ceased business due to lack of custom and I found out that the NHS was looking for volunteers for the Nightingale project, so I applied. “When Nightingale hospitals called me back they dis-

Also, donors were either contacted by the government or had registered for the trial.” Eleisha also spoke of some situations during assessment where there were not enough antibodies and also that not many women can donate as criteria state the donor must weigh more than 70 kilos and be of a certain

Protection for Home workers IN the new Spain, a huge number of workers will c o n t i n u e t o b e e n c o u raged to work from home but the government recognises that it will have to introduce working regulations to ensure no diminution of employment rights. For this reason, the Minister of Labour and Social Economy, Yolanda Díaz has confirmed that her department will be closely examining the situation in order to ensure that those who volunteer to work from home are not discriminated against. She intends to ensure that there is no loss of income or any rights that they would have expected if working in an office or similar location this means no removal of the rights to claim expenses, continued rights to promotion and professional training and the ability to belong to a trade union or similar organisation to represent the individual. There will be a section which deals with working

The employer may well benefit from a reduction in costs of housing its employees and should see less ‘sick

AN international gang with many bases in Spain has been broken up with more than 5,000 kilos of hashish seized from a yacht off the coast of Senegal. The whole project started in Mallorca when officers of the Guardia Civil spotted a yacht in the harbour at Palma which they believed may have been involved in the ongoing smuggling of the drug. As more information became available, officers recognised that this was a serious and large group involved in the smuggling
which ran from Africa to Spain and they contacted Frontex (the European Border and Coast Guard Agency), the Italian Police, the Senegalese Police and Navy. A coordinated action against all of those suspected of being part of the drug smuggling group took place in Barcelona, Girona (Blanes and Pontevedra which ended up with 16 arrests. In addition, the Senegalese Navy intercepted the yacht which was carrying 5,140 kilos of hashish.
Under investigation
FORMER KING: Juan Carlos I is said to have received around €90 million in bribes. CLAIMS that former King of Spain Juan Carlos I received around €90 million in Saudi bribes are under investigation by the Supreme Court After abdicating from the throne in 2014, Juan Carlos lost his immunity from prosecution and has been under the microscope since. A spokesman from the court said: “This investigation focuses, precisely, on establishing or discarding the criminal relevance of deeds that happened after June 2014, when the King Emeritus was no longer protect-
ed by inviolability.” Former King Juan Carlos I is said to have received €90 million in bribes from Saudi Arabia a decade ago, according to a report published by the Swiss newspaper La Tribune. Allegedly he received the funds in 2008 while immune from prosecution and the investigation will focus on deter mining whether he laundered part of that money after his abdication. Neither the former King nor Spain’s royal family has commented on the issue at the time of publication.

Clean or fine A BUNCH of students partying on a protected beach in Galicia in northern Spain got away with cleaning up after themselves rather than paying a fine. The nearly 40 foreign university students had gathered on Carnota beach in A Coruña on Thursday June 4 evening to drink and enjoy each other’s company in response to a call out on social media to get-together. The multinational youngsters reportedly chose the unspoilt location because they believed that there would be no risk of coronavirus infection there. But other beach-goers informed the police.
When officers arrived they found the students were at least divided into two groups, although given Galicia was still in lockdown de-escalation Phase two last week, the maximum number for a group of people meeting outdoors was still 15. What’s more, the police explained to the partygoers, Carnota beach is protected by Red Natura, meaning gatherings of this kind are banned.

There have been mixed reactions in the bag regarding this ridiculous fee, however, most reactions agree that this extra euro charge for a service which is required by law (disinfecting seating areas) is frankly outrageous.

AVLO on the Back Burner THE much anticipated AVLO, a new low-cost version of Renfe’s AVE, connecting Madrid with Barcelona at high speeds for a fraction of the price, was presumed to begin in April; however this initiative has been put on the back burner due to the coronavirus crisis. The Minister of Transport and Mobility, Jose Luis Abalos, has announced that, at least on a shortterm basis, this new high speed train will have to be postponed to a later date under which new mobility conditions allow for its operation again. The Minister admits that “I don’t find it feasible that we can provide a ‘low cost’ service during this short space of time” and that “right now with the current issues about social distancing this would be

In the moment of its suspension, the transport operator had already commercialised around a third of its initial sales for the new service. Due to this suspension of services, the operator was forced to refund customers for their purchases.

Of the 544 dogs found the owner of the farm could supply documents for just 138 and there were 161 animals which had not been microchipped. The animals were confiscated and the couple have been reported to a local court
accused of an alleged crime of animal abuse. The species that were discovered included, Bichon, Maltese, Poodle, Yorkshire, Pomeranian, Chihuahua, Shih Tzu and Valencian Mouser and all are now being properly cared for.
Jihadist arrested THE police in Spain have been on high alert seeking to dismantle any terrorist threats during the coronavirus crisis, now the third relevant action has been taken as a terror cell is dismantled in Ciudad Real. During the last few weeks, the attacks from police units on terrorist structures have been continuous, especially under quarantine. The most striking one was in Ciudad Real because of the high level of danger it
encompassed, where police worked to break up a network in Bolaños de Calatrava where an important radical was completing the configuration of a cell which was linked to Daesh. The operation culminated in four arrests. This police operation was carried out by officers from the General Information Commissariat of the National Police, who have also carried out two important actions in recent weeks.
WORKING in collaboration, the Guardia Civil and National Police have arrested a gang consisting of eight men who specialised in impersonating police and robbing other criminal organisations. The joint investigation started last year when a Colombian individual was stopped by a group claiming to be police officers who violently robbed the man. Officers soon discovered two similar violent attacks in Madrid and identified the group which consisted of Spanish, Colombian, French and Venezuelan individuals
The first operation was in Almeria, where one of the most wanted returnees from Syria was detained. The second operation was the aforementioned one in Bolaños de Calatrava, where a top-level capturer, Bader Bakal, was located and detained, in addition to a cell of other individuals, who were working as seasonal workers, collecting onions, and attracting followers among the workers.
Street chase and concluded that they were very wellequipped which allowed them to impersonate officers. When a raid went ahead at their warehouse and homes, two of the men tried to escape and were chased through the streets of Madrid, placing civilians in danger, ramming several cars and injuring an officer. The members of the gang have been charged with a string of offences.

SHOPLIFTER: Was only trying to feed his family. A POLICE officer paid for a ‘shoplifter’s’ baby food after hearing his financial troubles due to the crisis. Rather than arresting a 35-year-old father who tried to steal four jars of baby food, the policeman paid for the goods and told him to go home. The man was captured on supermarket CCTV cameras in Zarragoza entering the store and going directly to the baby food aisle, where he was seen putting the items in his pocket and looking nervous. As is normal procedure, the police were called.
But as the man explained he is a father who is out of work at the moment, times are hard and he is struggling to feed his family, fellow shoppers apparently took out their purses and offered to pay for the items. A National Police team arrived and spoke to staff, shoppers and the suspect before telling him "to leave, that there is nothing against him." As the would-be shoplifter was leaving the store, one of the officers reportedly paid for the jars of baby food, valued at around €8, and gave them to him.

Knife attack A 36-YEAR-OLD Bolivian w o m a n i s u n d e r a r re s t o n suspicion of killing her ex in a violent knife attack in Madrid. Guardia Civil reportedly detained the woman after she contacted the emergency services in the early hours of June 6 to report her 47-year-old former partner, also Bolivian, had stabbed himself in the ribs in an establishment in the Villa del Prado neighbour hood of the city. According to Spanish press, the woman contradicted herself during the course of the call while explaining what supposedly happened, raising the Guardia’s suspicions about her version of the events. When the ambulance arrived at the scene of the stabbing the team found the victim with knife wounds to the ribs, ar m and armpit, and losing a lot of blood, and could only confirm his death.
SUSPICIOUS: Inconsistencies in the woman’s explanation of what happened made the Guardia doubt her version of events. The Guardia cuffed the woman there and then.

Furlough returns
TENSION between the main Spanish banking institutes and the government is now reportedly running high over the management of the coronavirus crisis. AEB and CECA have revealed they are going to have to claim back from customers’ money already paid through the ERTE (temporary employment regulation) scheme due to errors in the information provided by the SEPE (Public Service of State Employment), ac-
cording to financial sources consulted by El Confidencial. The banks are reportedly ‘indignant’ at having to go from client to client demanding the return of hundreds of euros. Banks are already warning furloughed workers who have enough money on their account that they are going to deduct the difference between what was transferred on behalf of the SEPE and what they were actually entitled to.
Press reported the motive for the crime is under investigation.
Well-deserved Recognition
Health staff appreciate the recognition. THIS year, the Princess of Asturias Award for protection of Human Rights (Concordia) will be presented to the Spanish Health Workers for all that they have done during the coronavirus, Covid-19 pandemic. Recognition is rightly given to doctors, nurses, hospital workers and other health personnel who have directly cared for patients infected with Covid-19 without thought for their own safety and have done so much to try to protect the nation’s health during lockdown. The Awards are a series of annual prizes given in Spain by the Princess of Asturias Foundation to individuals, entities or organisations from around the world who make notable achievements in the sciences, humanities, and public affairs. Previous recipients have included the city of Gdansk, European Union, SOS Children’s Villages, ONCE and Spanish Association of Food Banks. This is a very prestigious award and is particularly meaningful at this difficult time.

Crossing the straits Brutal ANDALUCIA President Juanma Moreno has raised concerns about allowing this year’s so-called ‘Crossing the Straits’ operation, when North Africans living in Spain and elsewhere in Europe go through Spanish ports to get back home for the summer holidays. The Junta leader told Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez in a videoconference meeting with all the regional government heads that due to the Covid-19 pandemic he does not feel this year’s operation should go ahead.
LARGE-SCALE: Some three million people cross between the Spanish mainland and North Africa every summer. According to Moreno, there are concerns about the comings and goings given the current health cri-
sis and the lack of information about the impact of coronavirus in the countries of the Magreb.
The Prime Minister explained a working group made up of members of several ministries is looking at the issue. Also, that the national administration is talking to other European governments, and the government of Morocco. Some three million people make the crossing between mid-June and midSeptember every year, travelling to and from the Spanish mainland and North Africa through Algeciras, Tarifa, Malaga, Motril, Almeria, Alicante and Valencia.
robbery
POLICE in Barcelona have arrested five men after a brutal street robbery in broad daylight. The event took place at 5.45pm on Sunday, June 8, in the city’s Rambla del Raval, when five Moroccan males surrounded and assaulted a passer-by to steal his watch. The victim tried to escape as his attackers can be seen throwing punches at him and pulling him around, causing some of them to fall to the ground. The group of assailants all fled moments later. Mossos d’Esquadra officers who were in the area reportedly witnessed the event and, with the help of other patrols, managed to catch the five suspects and arrest them.

Take the power back Political Viewpoint from Spain by DAMON MITCHELL
Credit: Junta de Andalucia
UP until now, the different autonomous communities have been complaining that they have no power over the decisions made with regards to the lockdown and the de-escalation of the isolation period. Now that Phase 3 has been decreed in most areas it allows them to regulate what actions and measures can be taken. It also gives them the power to make the decision to leave Phase 3 whenever they want to. H o w e v e r, n o w t h a t t h e y h a v e what they have been pushing for they do not appear to be making any noticeable steps to do anything differently than the Spanish government were already doing. On Monday morning, Juan Marin, the Vice President of Andalucia stated that the Junta fully intended to complete the 15 days in Phase 3 before going through to the next stage, the ‘New Normality.’ After the 15 days, the autonomous communities should then be able to make tweaks to whatever measures they see fit excluding allowing travel throughout Spain. The kind of things this may in-
clude would be allowing shops back to maximum capacity but s t i l l e n f o rc i n g t h e u s e o f f a c e masks and social distancing. The ‘New Normality’ will then continue until they find a cure or vaccine for Covid-19. Two years have now passed since the coming to power of Pedro Sanchez. What he has shown the people of Spain is that he is a natural survivor. He has the capability of taking anything that has been thrown at him and making it into a positive. Two years in which many unprecedented events in the parliamentary system have happened. Almost everything that has been happening on each day of this period could be classed as historical. From Congress knocking down the first Budgets of Sanchez to the celebration of two electoral appointments in the same year and creating a coalition government made u p o f t w o p o l i t i c a l f o rc e s , P S O E and Podemos and most importantly winning the first vote of no confidence in Spanish democratic history. What more could be the highlight of a career than leading a country through one of the biggest health crisis there has ever been? Surely this will be the peak of his career, it leaves us to wonder what will be Sanchez’ next win?
TAKING TIME: Juan Marin stated that the Junta intend to complete the 15 days.

Home workers protected IN the new Spain, a huge num ber of workers will continue to be encouraged to work from home, but the government recognises that it will have to in troduce working regulations to ensure no diminution of employ ment rights. For this reason, the Minister of Labour and Social Economy, Yolanda Díaz has confirmed that her department will be closely examining the situation in order to ensure that those who volun teer to work from home are not discriminated against.
She intends to ensure that there is no loss of income or any rights that they would have ex pected if working in an office or similar location this means no removal of the rights to claim expenses (if they previously ex isted), continued rights to pro motion and professional training and the ability to belong to a trade union or similar organisa tion to represent the individual. There will be a section which deals with working hours and the rights to enjoy rest periods during the day and employers
will need to take into account the individual’s mental health, especially if there is an apparent feeling of isolation. The employer may well benefit from a reduction in costs of hous ing its employees and should see less ‘sick days’ whilst the employ ee should be able to spend more time with the family as commut ing time will be drastically cut and should save travel costs. The downside is that a general time spirit amongst workers may be lost as they no longer physi cally meet and interact.
LEGALLY SPEAKING
Who pays for terrace? Are community terraces the whole responsibility of the community? The terraces, according to the original builder, are the responsibility of the commu nity, but several of the houses have a shared terrace and other properties have their own small terrace area. I be lieve the community is only responsible for the tiled roof area, but not the terrace walls. Several of the owners have paid for maintenance of the terrace area out of their own pockets, but other owners claim the community should pay. T H (Costa Blanca) The rule is this: Any thing outside the YOU AND THE LAW walls of the structure IN SPAIN belongs to the com munity. In an apartment building this means the terraces and balconies. In a row of townhouses it means the terraces or in dividual garden areas. This is why an owner must ask the com munity to vote permission to glass in his balcony. He is granted exclusive use of the space, but he does not own it. Who should pay for upkeep? The most usual practice is for the individual owners to pay for upkeep as they have exclusive use of the space. Discuss it at the AGM.

High street closures FOR years Britain’s high streets saw the arrival of numerous corporate chain eateries which were popular for a while, but started to fall out of fashion with the demise of such names as Carluccio’s and Jamie Oliv er’s. With the lockdown, closure of restaurants owned by The Restaurant Group will in a number of cases be permanent and there will be no reopen ings for many Frankie & Ben ny's, as well as Garfunkel's.

Black Economy could be tempting THE concept of a legal minimum income, backed by Spanish government financial support has been an important plank in the left leaning political parties in Spain. It has finally been voted in but could come with some unexpect ed problems as those undertak ing the least wellpaid jobs could well be tempted to enter the ‘black economy.’ The problem for the authori ties is that it will be very difficult to check on whether recipients

of the government support are ‘topping up’ their income by tak ing on second jobs where they are paid in cash and no declara tion is made. A perfect example would be domestic staff at smaller hotels who will be officially registered, will earn sufficiently low amounts for them to claim the government support but who can then undertake private domestic work such as cleaning, ironing etc where they are paid cash in hand. The concept of trying to ensure that every person in Spain is en titled to sufficient income to al low them to move above the poverty line is undoubtedly one that many nations would aspire to, but considering the huge cost to the nation of the Covid 19 pandemic, it remains to be seen if this is actually the right idea at the wrong time. Eventually all the money that has been spent in the first six months of 2020 (as well as the billions of euros still promised in the second half of the year) will have to be replaced somehow.

BUSINESS EXTRA Social Services IN order to cope with the need to continue to pay pensions, to support those self-employed who have applied for financial assistance during lockdown and pay the unemployed, the Spanish Department of Social Services will owe the government more than €85 billion.
Digital banking EXPECT to see a surge in the number of Spaniards who turn to digital banking during 2020 as they have become used to keeping away from bank branches due to their inaccessibility during the lockdown and the ongoing closure of branches.

Blaming a racist virus
MOBS PROTESTING: Including the malicious destruction of public property. W H AT t h e s e r i o t e r / protester mobs don’t understand, is that every screaming disruption and malicious destruction of public property gains thous a n d s o f m o re v o t e s for Donald Trump! Although the turn out for these demonstrations appears to be extensive, they are a mere fraction of the overall population, most of whom totally abhor this type of mob action; particularly when it is emerging that many are allegedly being financed by billionaire George Soros, as part of his supposed intention to bring anarchy to the USA! Trump’s appearance holding a bible and posing for an impromptu photo call outside the St John’s church was a brilliant PR exercise. To the bible belt and all those convinced that ‘God is on their side,’ plus his statement that he was the ‘President of law and order’ and was prepared to bring in troops to restore this order, would have won him millions of supporters, and to my mind absolutely guaranteed another Whitehouse term. And what are these so
called protesters chanting about anyway. Justice? Well just a minute, hasn’t the perpetrator in this case been arrested for murder and three other police officers also accused of aiding and abetting? What sort of ‘justice’ do these people want - a public lynching? While we’re about it, what about all the black populace who have committed horrendous murders of white victims? What about the black man Kori Ali Mohamad, who admitted killing four people, as recently as March of this year, simply ‘because they were white’? How easily we forget the vicious murders of two innocent white people carried out by OJ Simpson, who was initially found not guilty by a jury comprised mainly of black elderly women in what was considered one of the worst miscarriages of justice in recent history. It took a civil unbiased court to subsequently find him guilty, but at no time did we witness hordes of white protesters screaming, looting and baying for blood. No, I’m afraid that to me racism is a two- way street and those who
scream racism the loudest are in fact often the biggest racists of all. It has also recently been established that more ethnic minorities and black people are dying of the Corona disease than white. What hasn’t been made clear is why? We have just witnessed large gatherings of mainly black and ethnic people, completely ignoring the gover nment’s directives in social distancing; in the same way as I reported nearly two months ago, when I observed that even then advice was being ignored by the ethnic communities. Many mosques remained open and some Imams were even telling their followers that it wasn’t their problem and was in fact ‘the wrath of Allah on the infidels’! At the time I wrote that in a few weeks, when they began dropping like flies, they would probably be blaming the indigenous population or the government for their problems. I didn’t imagine for one minute they would be blaming a racist virus! Keep the faith Love Leapy leapylee2002@gmail.com

The Power
of Hope
POWERFUL WORD: You’ll soon find it to be a much healthier, positive and practical alternative.
ROBERT SHALLIS ALBERT EINSTEIN once said: ‘Learn from yesterday, live for today, HOPE for tomorrow.’ With the world experiencing so much pain, uncertainty and confusion at present, the word ‘Hope’ once again has been called to duty. But is hope just a word we use half-heartedly when we are trying to hold on to something less negative out of desperation, or can it really make a difference? It’s actually a very powerful thing as it can inspire us, uplift us and help us get through those difficult and challenging times. Sometimes, just holding on to a little hope when everything around us can seem hopeless is not an easy thing to do when so many people prefer to hold on to despair. Hope is magical, it is a positive use of our imagination, the vision of a better outcome and has the ability to turn dreams into reality. Today most
of us are hoping for a better world and a brighter future. It’s important that we continue to do so as it can help make each day seem more bearable during such testing times. It gives us the strength to carry on and push forward. Living without hope isn’t really living, but of course it’s our choice. Optimism or pessimism? We are free to decide. Hope and despair have allies, faith and fear. Faith and fear are interesting as they both require that you believe in something you cannot see. So, hope itself requires an element of faith which is believing in something without evidence. The substance of faith is hope. We can easily be driven by our fears however, we can also be driven by our hopes and beliefs, which most would agree is a more effective and positive way to live each day. It can sometimes be difficult to change our perspective but if you’re tired of that all too famil-
iar feeling of doom and gloom which can often overwhelm us especially in today’s current climate, try practising hope. Try focusing on a different ending to the story. Life is an open book, instead of predicting the worst, use the miraculous and amazing strength and power of hope to help change the chapters. So, let’s hold on to that powerful word . Let it become part of you and a way of being. You’ll soon find it to be a much healthier, positive and practical alternative. Simply put, hope is what you would like to happen. What would you like to happen? Don’t lose sight of hope, it is surely a better way to live, it helps you get to where you want to be and creates that shining light at the end what can sometimes seem like a never-ending dark tunnel? So, is hope just a word? Not at all. It has my vote, does it have yours - hopefully so? Rob Shallis www.robshallis.com

Phase 3 Forward to freedom
FROM Monday, some 25 million people moved into Phase 3 of Spain’s de-escalation from the State of Alarm. The areas that advanced to Phase 3 are: Galicia, Asturias, Cantabria, Basque Country, La Rioja, Navarre, Aragon, Extremadura, Andalucia, Murcia, Balearic Islands and Canary Islands. The autonomous communities have now been given the power to decide how long this period of de-escalation should last and when State of Alarm ends. In Phase 3, restaurant and bar terraces, which were currently limited to 50 per cent of their capacity, will be able to open up to 75 per cent of capacity. The common areas of the shopping centres may reopen, although with a capacity limit. Socially, in Phase 3 the capacity is increased in social celebrations such as weddings and funerals and there may be up to 150 guests in open spaces and 75 indoors. The wake may have up to 50 attendees outdoors and 25 indoors. And the churches, up to 75 per cent capacity. Nightclubs can now open with a third of their capacity, except in Andalucia and the Balearic Islands. However, there will be no dancing as social distancing measures will still apply. Casinos and gambling halls can also open, with a maximum of 50 per cent of capacity. At this point in time, only those living in Andalucia can travel between provinces. Each autonomous community will also control measures around the reopening of beaches.

Helping you succeed AS we move through the phases of deconfinement, it brings us one more step closer to the life we had before the virus. However, when we finally decide to venture outside, it may not be as we remember. We may not be able to go to our favourite coffee shop, we may not be able to go back to the hairdresser that cut our hair perfectly every time. They may no longer be there. As you walk along the streets of your town you will now see many more FOR RENT or FOR SALE signs as some businesses have just not been able to manage through the health crisis. Lack of custom has led to lack of turnover which pays for rent and staff, some business owners may not have the funds to redesign their premises to allow for social distancing and health measures. These businesses need your custom NOW, more than ever, they need the support of the public to keep their doors open.
So, if you allow us to tell those customers for you that you are open and ready for business we will help you by offering advertising discounts with us. We are asking that if you book an advertising space with us and place our symbolic ‘Heart of the Community’ logo in your advertisement, it will not only show that you are part of a community action standing together to get back to normal life, but it will allow you to have a featured advertising space in the Euro Weekly News at a lower cost than ever before.
Euro Weekly News want to do all we can to help remedy this and without help from the expat community it will not be possible. We want to save your businesses from going under. We understand at times like these money is tight for all of us and we have to make smart and calculated decisions to get through this. One of the most important decisions you need to make is letting the public know you are still here and still fighting. Your loyal customers that have been enjoying your services for years and new customers that have been looking for exactly what you can offer. The best way to let them know is through advertising, especially advertising in a place where you know your customers will see it. Euro Weekly News has remained open through the pandemic, our loyal, hard working staff have made sure that they are the ones that people turn to when they need to know what is going on.
We want your business to succeed, we want your business to survive. Let’s bring the Spain that we know back to normal, back to life.

What the World Needs Now... Love LAMBE-MURPHY
GROCERY SHOPPING: Is now ‘my thing.’ On Thursday, I had to go grocery shopping, and I made excuses to delay the chore. Strange, as something that used to excite me during lockdown, has somehow become ‘my thing.’ As if somehow, I’ve made it my errand. Anyhow, I hopped into the golf buggy and headed across the motorway to Supersol in El Rosario. I have the art of shopping down. What used to take almost an hour is now achieved within 10 minutes. I left the store to find that the buggy wouldn’t restart. It hadn’t been fully charged before departure. I sat staring at the shopping bags, hoping the Häagen-Dazs wouldn’t melt, when out of nowhere, a Spanish guy approached and asked if I needed help. He explained that he was a gardener and uses golf buggies every day. I wasn’t aware that there’s a built-in jumpstart kit. He knew what to do, and within minutes I was eating the ice cream on Playa Los Monteros. That’s just it, a total stranger, offering help to a total stranger. For no other reason than kindness. While I come from the ‘land of a thousand welcomes,’ I can say that I feel Spain to be one of the most welcoming places I have lived. And while summer 2020 may be slow starter, something tells me it’s going to be fantastic. When you open your eyes, try to see the good in people. Try to always do good for others. See beyond skin colours, sexuality, class. Open your heart, along with your eyes, and trust me, any little things that bug you about the human race, will soon seem pointless. I dedicate this column to anyone who feels they are in the minority. Remember we are not alone. Together love conquers all.

I feel better now it’s off my chest MIKE SENKER IN MY OPINION Views of a Grumpy Old Man
GAVIN IN a world currently dominated by change, it suddenly feels that we are being forced to realise, what we should have already known. While Coronavirus hit us as something of a ‘delayed surprise,’ the deeply saddening death of George Floyd, is the reality check the world needed, in order to make a united stand against racism and bigotry. The horrific scene, showing the final moments of this poor man’s life, remains deep within our minds and hearts. Watching the news, and the global mixed emotions, leave me stunned. So many people peacefully making a statement, so loud, that even the most hideous racist can hear. Of course there are those who choose to use any situation as an excuse to cause damage. But for now, I concentrate on peace, and hopefully, major positive changes. As for those, who use times like these as an excuse for their criminal behaviour, well, I simply don’t have the mind space. Marbella continues to reopen slowly, and I must say, it has confirmed my suspicion - Spanish people are fantastic. My childhood memories of Ibiza, Marbella and Sotogrande, are filled with smiles. For me, Spain has always been a place driven by its people. Since making it my home last year, I can honestly say, that people are kind, cool, and caring. Of course, there are many who will claim I live through ‘rosé tinted’ glasses, but I feel very welcome in Marbella. A place where people of all nationalities blend together. The glue, being the ever gracious, and smiling Spanish. A nation that manages to be kind, while at the same time passionate. Now, there’s a combination! Routine continues - I still rise early, and run on the beach. Each morning I see more and more people picking rubbish from the sea. Again, as if suddenly, we notice the washed up plastic on the shore. After months of lockdown, our eyes finally open. Last year, I met a group of Swedes, who introduced me to Plogging - picking up plastic as you jog. Bottom line; want to get fit and help the planet? Go plogging. The chiringuitos are alive with the sound of laughter as the sun sets, and it feels like the staff are extra happy to be back.
11 - 17 June 2020
THANKS for the emails about my little stories from my youth and I’ll probably do some more, but for this week at least I need to be grumpy again. We have been walking along the paseo each morning. The instructions are very simple and, in fact for absolute clarification, there are arrows painted on the pavement. If you are walking towards Marbella you walk on one side of the street if you are walking towards Malaga you walk on the other side of the street. (Obviously that’s if you live on the Costa del Sol!) So now I have to stop myself saying to people ‘Oi, you are on the wrong side of the street!’ I’ve seen others do it and the responses haven’t been that pleasant. No-one I’ve seen has said ‘oh dear, I’m so sorry.’ I actually think this should be carried on forever. It’s a bit like shopping in Ikea. Another thing is what’s the etiquette of walking now? If you are walking down a non-one way pavement with your dog
and someone is walking towards you with or without a dog who crosses over or goes into the road? It’s easy when you are driving. If the obstruction is on your side of the road you hold back till the car passes ... or at least you should. But there is no guidance about the pavement situation. Is it a sign of weakness to cross over or is it politeness or is it a game of social distancing chicken to see who caves in first? OK - mask wearing. Wear it or don’t. There’s no point in walking along with it on your chin or dangling from your ear! I have to admit I’m a chin wearer sometimes but have now decided I can’t go out for my walk with a mask on. I wear it round my wrist ready for when I stop. I only really wear one if I’m in a store. Oh and by the way in case nobody has realised it yet, it doesn’t matter how much the locals support their restaurants, bars and cafes, they cannot exist without tourism. Until that starts again this coast is economically in a stranglehold. I went to a local deli yesterday and in the parade were six eateries. Four of them had ‘se vende’ signs in the window and were closed. And that feels better having got all that off my chest!

LETTERS FROM CANARIES By Barbara Belt barbarabelt@gmail.com DEAR reader, may this find you virus free, solvent and happy, as we head towards normality. We’ve forged ahead here into Phase 3. I wish it could be permanent. Open, empty beaches! Forest and mountain walks! Bars, restaurants and shops open! Peace and quiet! There’s the rub: unless tourists send the money but stay home, it’ll all end in tears, so we’re opening to visitors, hoping they’ll be nothing like the idiot who flew from Madrid to Lanzarote whilst waiting for CV19 test results. Health authorities couldn’t tell him he’d tested positive (he was flying, phone in plane mode) but tracked him so quickly that police were waiting at Lanzarote airport when his plane landed a few hours later. He and his 40 unfortunate fellow passengers are in quaran-

Let’s all keep well TRAVEL: But be responsible. tine. Veronica Tribaldos “He’s an irresponsible scoundrel!” was in the same row of seats. Passengers also reported: “There was no testing at Madrid airport,” which is frightening. In fact, another passenger on the plane was ambulanced away, after testing on arrival. What’s the point of the 30 Canarian trackers holed up in a public library in Gran Canaria making thousands of calls daily to warn people who’ve been in contact for more than 15 minutes with an infected person, if not even Madrid airport acts responsibly? (Link 1).
Conflicting web theories abound. Choose from: ‘it’s a lab-produced population controller/ mistake’; ‘deaths are really much higher/ lower’; ‘there’s no real problem/ we’re all doomed’ ‘quarantine, social distancing, masks and increased hygiene are essential/useless’ and so on, ad nauseam. I can’t believe there’s an evil master plan behind this latest human balls-up. What I do know is that there’s no virus here any more, or on any small
island. Yes, they have small populations, but they’re also very easy to monitor and shut down. No movement or close contact = no spread. Cruise ships are smaller than islands but feature on the death league tables above some countries. Isolating passengers on boats is an impossibility. Close contact = spread. And what do all the ‘lockdown’s a waste of time’ naysayers think about countries like Czechia and Slovakia’s (if New York City had the same
mortality rate it’d have 40, not 19,000 victims) relatively mild brushes with the virus? That they’re too small/poor/corrupt/ secretly communist to believe? Or New Zealand? PM Jacinda Ardern’s early lockdown worked. Just 22 deaths. (See Link 2.) Or Portugal? With 33.966 cases, 1.465 deaths (4%) to date, compared to neighbouring Spain’s 287.740 cases and 27.133 deaths (9%). (See Link 3.) So, travel responsibly. Insist on being at least temperature tested. Keep your distance. We don’t want it all back. Let’s keep well!

Welcome to the New Normal
LOCKDOWN is causing mounting tensions in the UK as surveys show people have not only drunk more and gained weight but turned on neighbours flouting restrictions. According to TV broadcaster Kirstie Allsopp, lockdown has turned Brits into a nation of snoopers: “Every day somebody accuses me of something I haven’t done!” The end of lockdown and the ‘new normal’ are increasingly visible on the horizon some pubs are serving takeaway pints, Mr Whippy is being enjoyed on beaches and Brits may be planning for life outside the work-fromhome bubble, but they won’t be giving up the new national hobby easily: snooping. Occasionally even a little light dobbing. To the council, to the police or on social media. The problem with ‘lock-
SNOOPING: The new national hobby.
down hawks’ is that this type of behaviour strengthens the feelings of those who resent lockdown, while not being at all helpful to the many in the middle who are doing their best, but whose circumstances do not quite match any scenario imagined by either their neighbours or the rule-makers.
Maybe too many ‘non-essential’ workers enjoying their furlough holiday have too much time on their hands? With no intellectual pursuits to occupy them, what else is there to do apart from wandering far and wide like robots or spying on their neighbours? However, spying on others is
far from new in Britain. The Department for Work and Pensions has been receiving innumerable dobbing-in phone calls for decades from people positive they’re better informed of their neighbour’s medical or disabled condition than it is. The net-curtaintwitching phenomenon seems part of the national
character. An ugly part. But it’s not all bad news. According to YouTube, people are watching instructional videos more than ever as they seek new skills during lockdown. Videos with titles like ‘how to’ and ‘step-bystep’ are being viewed for 65 per cent longer than this time last year. And the UK’s top online shopping searches during the months of March and April included free weights, lawn mowers, plants, seeds, hair dye - and women’s lingerie (don’t ask!).

The Ginger Cat of Anxiety SUZANNE MANNERS MY mother died last October. Since then I have woken every morning with ‘butterflies’ in my s t o m a c h a n d a n o v e rwhelming feeling of dread. Of course I Googled all this and discovered, somewhat surprisingly, that butterflies in the stomach were a symptom of grief and not nerves or an undigested slice of cheese. Our bodies are amazing, not just for their dexterity, but for the interconnectedness of the whole mass, flesh, blood, bone and tiny cells shunted along by bubbles of oxygen and constantly snapping electrical charges. The brain controls all this and what the brain receives the body feels ; mis-
ery loves company as they say. Anxiety and depression will eventually have physical side effects on the body which is why doctors recommend exercise or a good stiff walk rather than a stiff drink. My grief manifests itself in anxiety for my family and for our future. I am no spring chicken and a very keen sense of my own mortality rears its mocking head at regular intervals impatiently tapping its watch. When this happens I do indeed try to ‘walk it off’ with varying degrees of success. Churchill suffered periodic bouts of crippling depression which he called his ‘black dog.’ I don’t have a ‘black dog.’ My manifestation of anxiety is a ginger cat who meows loudly for food while sitting by a full bowl and who surreptitiously knocks objects onto the floor while looking at me with narrowed eyes.
GINGER CAT: Hopefully it will grow bored with me. The ‘ginger cat’ is flea bitten and snaggle-toothed. A feral being devoid of any gentleness. The ‘ginger cat’ wakes me up at night, sits on my chest and breathes fish fumes into my face. Cats are contrary creatures and the ‘ginger cat’ is no different. It will react in ways that cause confusion
and anger. Don’t drink to excess while you are comatose, it will pee in your shoe. Avoiding it will ear n you a sharp swipe and a scratch and don’t leave your valuable sense of worth on the shelf because it will knock it off with devilish abandon. The best way to deal with
it is to confront the beast head on. Don’t show fear, it thrives on that, invite it in and feed it cream and cheese and speak soft words to it until, lulled by lactose, it sleeps... at which point you grab it by the scruff of the neck and throw it in the cat basket. Show it who the alpha To m i s i n t h e r e l a t i o n s h i p , acknowledge its presence, but do not let it own you (I do love a good metaphor and am very partial to the odd analogy, as you may have gathered). Winston managed to get his ‘black dog’ to heel and went on to govern the country through a war so I am damn sure I can keep the ginger cat under control and not indulge it or spoil it and hope that eventually it will grow bored of me and slink off back into the bushes where it belongs. Toodle pip!

MARBELLA MOMENTS BY NICOLE KING THE one thing that stands out more than ever now in Phase 3 is that under no circumstances do I want to retur n to the manic lifestyle of before. I have learnt that my health and well-being are actually the most important thing that I should concentrate on. I’ve accepted that what I most focus on will dominate my day and that if I actually make a conscious choice for those thoughts to not be just positive, but joyous, not only am I getting a lot done, I’m having a lot of fun. I’ve realised that when I have hundreds of things on my daily ‘to do’ list that even when I’ve possibly managed to accomplish an outstanding 99 per cent of them, I still go to bed feeling frustrated and disappointed that I didn’t do it all. I’ve learnt that with a re-

Are you weird and wonderful? alistic list I can let myself off the hook and be thankful at the end of the day of achieving my goals; realistic ones. I’ve accepted that not everyone is going to like me and that it is OK - a landslide victory in politics can be anything over 51 per cent as I understand it. With this in mind I think we can all stop worrying about what everyone else thinks because fortunately it really doesn’t matter. Chatting with other weird friends like myself, I’ve decided that being weird; standing out of the crowd, not complying with rules and regulations that go against the grain is not only OK, but exactly what the world needs now. There’s much talk of ‘the awakening’ and perhaps this is just what’s happening. Masha Malka mentions in her interview on Marbella Now (Thursday 11.06.2020 on RTV Marbella) that 85 per

Young adults are clever enough to realise there is more to life than passing exams and following in their parents’ footsteps to join a
society that seems to have lost its north. The world has so much more to offer them and we’re stealing every moment with ‘important’ learning. It’s time to let them actually live their young lives freely, joyously, with carefree abandon. Let them discover them-
selves and find their own purpose as opposed to making them chose to obey a working regime that truly serves them no purpose. Christopher Clover, founder of Panorama real estate, celebrating 50 years of business this year in Marbella, says that he has never tried to sell property; his intention was always to guide those seeking to set up home and with that clear vision everything else just fell into place. (Friday 12.06.2020) Finding our purpose in life may mean daring to live up to our true potential. More often than not this means we might just have to break away from the crowd, forget about other people’s opinions, however good intentioned and let ourselves evolve into the uniquely weird and wonderful human beings we were always destined to be. Our future depends on it.

DIONE LOCKYER SO many people are completely out of touch with their real needs, they become so engrossed with the 60,000+ thoughts that go through their mind on a daily basis that they can’t even think what they are! What actually drives you to think, feel and behave in unhealthy ways? What you think you want and what you REALLY want are actually two different things. So how do you identify the difference between what you think you need to what you actually need? It involves peeling away your layers like an onion. Let’s start with the unhappiness and dissatisfaction in your life (the outside layer). We need to examine the surface. Ask yourself the following questions: How do you currently be-
Do you know your REAL NEED? have? What precise actions do you take that sabotages your life? Do you speak badly of others to make yourself feel better? Do you pick holes in your friends, your partner or even strangers? Now let’s peel back the next layer, the identification. If you have answered yes to any if these questions, this identifies being unhappy in your own life. You may show an emotion of anger, frustration but this isn’t the REAL emotion. Anger and frustration is a defensive emotion that actually protects you from feeling and facing your true emotion such as fear or loneliness. For example; if anger is your dominant emotion, let’s peel back the layer of the onion even further and uncover your primary emotion. Ask yourself, what is your fear? What are you afraid of? This will bring you a
COURSE: Start living a positive life. step closer to your REAL need. If your thoughts focus on something or someone outside of you, then you haven’t yet
arrived at your underlying thoughts that are connected with your real need. It will always start and end with YOU.
Ask yourself a further question; what do you think about? Specify which need actually sits at the heart of your self-defeating life. Your real needs will ALWAYS be one of the following five: LOVE SECURITY CONTROL COMPETENCE POSITIVE EMOTIONS Can you choose the need that is most connected with the thoughts, feelings and behaviours that you have just identified? If you feel you need help with the Identification and would also like the information of the final layer to detect how the needs develop then my FREE, four- day course is for you You can find it on https://www.face book.com/groups/1683854077 87753/?ref=share Or email coachingwith dione@gmail.com.
If you would like to dig a little deeper into your own thoughts, feelings and behaviours or you would like to complete one of my courses to live a happy and healthy life with yourself, please email me coachingwithdione@gmail.com.

PERSONAL THANKS DEAR Euro Weekly, May I through the good offices of your newspaper, take this opportunity to offer my personal thanks to the Lady Mayoress of Águilas, Miss Maria Del Carmen Moreno, for the decisive and efficient action she took to implement the lockdown. In my opinion, the Chiefs of Police in both the Local Police and Guardia Civil are to be congratulated on the way both forces are carrying out their duties: firm, but friendly, from my limited observations. Lastly, the residents of Águilas, who I also observed fleetingly. They appeared to be acting very responsibly and positively, to the lockdown and are to be commended for this. Yours sincerely, Mr A Atherton
Clear and sensible Dear Euro Weekly News, I am a British expat who has lived in Spain for many years. During the Coronavirus pandemic, I have been very impressed by the Spanish government’s reaction and lockdown rules that have been employed and the clear and sensible relaxations that are being made now as and when safe to do so. The Spanish residents have all acted in a sensible and law-abiding way too.
OUR VIEW Mutual respect
AS many people have started to return to their workplaces whilst coronavirus isolation eases off, we must ask are these companies ready? Yes, there are to be new health and sanitary measures put into place to save the spread of any virus but surely there will need to be help in place for the effects on employees’ mental health. Whether it be from being stuck in the house with minimal or no contact with others to loss of family members, having suffered from the virus themselves, to facing a new, changed world and even just the pressure of getting stuck back into projects and actual work. Some may fear the return to normal they have been hoping for. In the two months, they have been out of a work environment people have learned to use their time in different ways, taken up activities that they may not have time for when they return to work, gained new skills or found some kind of peace. These may be things that they will be reluctant to let go of or struggle to continue with. People may now have realised that they can live a life without five coffees at Pret a Manger every day or wardrobes full of clothes. This new normal could now allow people to prioritise lifestyle and well-being over work. Companies should be ready for this, will they meet their employees halfway to ease them back into their role? Will they nurture and value them more in an understanding that we have all been through this together. We must remember that everyone from interns, office staff, managers and CEOs have had to deal with fear and create a new life that is comfortable. Let’s hope with that joint experience comes a mutual respect.
CORRECTIONS
Thanks for action. Contrast this to the shambolic way that Boris Johnson and the British government have reacted and it makes me truly ashamed to be British. The British government is going against a lot of the scientific advice that is being given at the moment and are relaxing the lockdown regulations while the infection and death rate is still too high. There are also a large number of people ignoring the social distancing rules and regulations and it is like a ticking time bomb just waiting to explode into a new and deadly spike of infections. The most worrying point at the moment is if Spain goes ahead as planned to open up to tourism, will there be checks in place on all those coming into the country especially from places like the UK? Will the tourists be policed in the strict manner needed? Tourism is very important to the Spanish economy, I just hope that the resumption is done slowly and carefully so that the country doesn’t get a second spike in infections causing unnecessary pain, death and suffering. Kind regards Tony Wiggins
Leftie, rightie, Leapy Dear Leapy Lee Why do you call anyone who dares to criticise the current Tory government a ‘leftie’? Surely, in a democracy, anyone has the right, whatever their political leanings, to criticise their government if they feel it has made mistakes. In the current Coronavirus crisis the UK government has left a lot to be desired in their response, yet you are prepared to excuse them by saying they have found themselves in an unprecedented situation, but it is an unprecedented situation for ALL governments of the world and many have tackled it much better. Also, in the light of the Dominic Cummings debacle, more than 50 of the prime minister’s own MPs have criticised his response not to mention thousands of others. Are these all ‘lefties’? Obviously not. Come on Leapy Lee, look at the wider picture and be prepared to snap out of your blinkered right-wing views. Maybe, one day, it might dawn on you that Boris Johnson is totally out of his depth and is a shoddy excuse for a prime minister who tells blatant lies just like his counterpart in America.

COMMENTS FROM FACEBOOK The Spanish Government to Announce New Regulations if a Coronavirus Vaccine is not Available How are they going to include the testing as law? There is a human rights law that prevents you from being made to have a treatment that you do not want. And you cannot be discriminated against for that choice. If we are now being told to have a test or we will be discriminated against, it is against Article 6, section 1, of the UNESCO 2005 statement of Bioethics and Human rights. Paul Ash it doesn’t yet. It does say... ‘Among them, all the suspected cases of Covid-19 are obliged to carry out PCR or derived tests.’ That is medical treatment which you can choose not to have and should not be discriminated against if you decide not to have it based on the fact it is not accurate. If the person who won the Nobel prize for inventing RT/PCR testing, Karey Banks Mullis, has himself said that you are not to use the PCR test for diagnosis as it is 81 per cent false positive and cannot differentiate between any of the seven human corona virus ailments, why should it be compulsory to be used and made to be mandatory in the ‘new normal’?
MH
MPs warn overcrowding on Britain’s beaches could lead to second wave of Covid-19 and force a lockdown And the hundreds (at least) of people who are gathering together in London to attack the police, destroy the streets, damage cars, loot stores and injure police horses probably aren’t going to help the figures much, either - however they justify their behaviour to themselves.
JTAA
Airline Adversaries British Airways, easyJet and Ryanair square up to the UK Government over Quarantine Law People living in glass houses shouldn’t be throwing stones, Ryanair can speak when he gives passengers their money back for cancelled flights, some of these people probably are short of cash right now and need the money. Amen.

Spain’s open-air bull rings to reopen from Monday but dance floors remain closed This really has to STOP. What ‘human being’ would actually love to watch a defenceless animal being tortured for fun... what kind of people are you? No empathy in their bones at all.
KM
Minneapolis Agrees to Ban Neck Restraints & Chokeholds Following George Floyd’s Death I totally agree, but in return the protesters should agree not to use a sad event like this to riot and loot innocent shop keepers, that is bad press and does not help their cause, only discredits what they are protesting about. Looters should be handed over to the authorities. x

TIME OUT Cartoon by Audrey Quinton www.audreyq.co.uk
YOUR STARS FOR NEXT 7 DAYS ARIES (March 21 - April 20) Being asked to take on a new and demanding task this week may see you wishing that you had been less visible. TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) An interest in technology is not something new to you. What is great, though, is that the penny has suddenly dropped. This week sees you understanding more and wanting to know more. GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) An urge to get moving must mean that the new year is round the corner. Certainly, you are questioning where you want to be in the months ahead. A house move or work placement may be on your mind. CANCER (June 22 - July 23) Be aware that not everyone is willing to work as hard as you. When approached by someone wanting you to trust them, be sure of their motives. Do what you feel is right but remain firmly in control, especially financially. It may not be the time to make a particular move, although others think that it is. There's no problem with discussing things and talking them through. LEO (July 24 - August 23) Social demands are made, but try to shuffle them to the weekend. Be diplomatic or someone close could become irritated. Keep an eye on the small print because something fundamental may have changed in a long-standing arrangement. Suddenly, at the weekend, you are thrust into the limelight.
soon sorts things out. You don’t like playing the ‘bad guy’, but honesty is also important to you. Speaking your mind can be liberating although, initially, you may see it as a nuisance and embarrassing. SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) Someone with a larger-thanlife imagination makes you smile but that was not their intention. Try to be diplomatic and steer them in a different direction. Some feelings of loneliness will not be assuaged by working more. Perhaps it is time to consider taking on a pet or giving a current pet more attention.
LIBRA (September 24 - October 23) Career and home are in disharmony but a bit of compromise
UK NATIONAL LOTTERY
SAGITTARIUS (November 23 - December 21) Sometimes, you find it hard to do things just for the pure enjoyment of it. Realise that not everything has to have a purpose or a profit. Look round this week and seek out something that will please your senses and bring a smile to your lips.

AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) This being a family oriented month, much of it may be spent getting together with relatives and going over old times. Perhaps you are compiling a photo album for older members of the family or vice versa.
PISCES (February 20 - March 20) An exciting invitation may set tongues wagging and make a loved one jealous. You, meanwhile, are quite bemused by the whole thing. What comes out of this week is that you are of considerable value to others. The mere thought of you not being around sends ripples through your social circle.

A day in our shoes: Understanding What It Feels Like MS BIPOLAR UP AND DOWN WITH BALANCE UNEDITED FOR someone looking in from the outside I can only imagine how confusing it must be to understand someone who has Bipolar. If you have a friend or family member living with bipolar disorder, this person may be afraid to share how they really feel. During these emotional highs known as mania - I may become full of energy and overly excited about everything and anything! Sometimes, all you see is a fun, optimistic, and bubbly person - the life of the party. But other times, you may notice erratic and strange behaviours with their joyful mood. I become more talkative, to the point where others can’t get a word in. I also speak fast, or come off as impulsive and easily distracted. I tend to be quite repetitive, telling you the same story a million times! When I’m in a depressive episode, I want to be left alone - but then get lonely and think everyone is avoiding me! I don’t want to go anywhere, see anyone, or do anything. It’s like no matter what I do, I’m doing s o m e t h i n g wrong. So, the easiest way to feel better is to hide. Seeing everyone carrying on, living their happy little lives is an annoying reminder of my bipolar disorder and how I’ll never have that kind of stability. No matter what it is - I don’t enjoy things because the smallest details annoy me. If friends invite me out, I imagine waiting for the bus, being crammed against people, crowded bars, and all the other negative things. I think of every possible downside of something, which leaves me dreading the idea of doing anything. I analyse every possible worse case scenario. I turn into this grumpy overly obses-
sive lady! During these episodes when I think about the future, I don’t like what I see. I can only see more troubles, endless work to keep well, and an endless string of letdowns and failed relationships. But there is also a place inbetween - the middle - between the mania and the depressions there is a small breathing space, I get to catch my breath back, and build up enough energy to roll out the punches the average day gives me! It never lasts for long, so I make the most of it and enjoy it whilst it lasts … I’m not freaking out over small problems, I enjoy the little things, and I’m not loathing the future. I feel normal (my kind of normal!) and it’s how I see myself. I’m not some lunatic running around or some long face lazy slug! I honestly wish I could stay in this mindset all the time, but I know that won’t happen. I’ve accepted that my moods will change on their own. The key to understanding this illness is it’s unpredictable not the person suffering it, but the illness. I am not unpredictable, but my illness is. Take it one day at a time with your loved one. Have patience. Healing and understanding the illness doesn’t happen overnight, and it’s completely normal to worry about your loved one during their mania and depressive episodes. But the most important thing of all is DON’T GIVE UP ON US … We need your guiding light to keep going, keep believing in us. A quote from my mum when I became really ill eight years ago : “All the time I had hope, I said it for you, and thought it for you even when I knew you had none. I fought to feel it for you, knowing that if I doubted even one single moment you would slip away and the second chance we had with you would be lost.” Love Ms Bipolar x

Home gym
STUCK INSIDE: There are many household items you can use to exercise.
WITH many of us having being stuck behind closed doors for a while and sports equipment shops and gyms closed we need to find a way of getting summer body fit. There are many household items you already have that you can use as makeshift weights or exercise aids. How about filling two water bottles the same size with sand from the beach, pebbles or plain old dirt. The weight will then allow them to be used as dumbells
so you can crack on with sculpting your guns. A towel or t-shirt can be used as a resistance band if tied in a loop allowing it to be used for your arm and leg workouts. Get climbing those stairs for some cardio or to feel the burn add some food cans to a backpack whilst you do it. If you have a rope long enough you should get skipping for a full-body workout.
Sleep tight SLEEP WELL: Anxiety from thinking you can’t sleep can make things worse.
THE global health crisis has given ever ybody a little extra stress due to not spending time at work, relationship issues or being cooped up with your family all day. It can become too much, so it’s possible your sleep may suffer. Anxiety from thinking you can’t sleep can make things worse. Free your mind and the rest will follow. Try keeping a notebook to write down things
you’re worrying about. An overheated body can be disruptive to your sleep. Wear light cottons and make sure your bedroom is kept cool and dark through the night. Physical comfort is critical for sleep, so invest in a decent mattress. Almost half of our life is spent in bed, so it’s worth investing in one that gives the right support and prevents back pain. Eating and drinking before bed can affect sleep. Avoid stimulants like caf-
feine and sugar and opt for a glass of warm milk or a cup of chamomile tea to induce sleep.
SOCIAL SCENE Celebrating 35 years THE Salon Varietés Theatre in Fuengirola was built in 1925 and ran as a theatre until 1956 when it was converted into a cinema. Spear headed by Mike Lewin and Annie Spiers, a deter mined group of British expats with theatre experience negotiated a long-term lease on the Salon with the landlord. Everything was changed - except the name - and the place many know and love as The Salon Varietés was born. It opened its doors for the first time on June 14, 1985 with Acker Bilk and his Paramount Jazz Band. The Salon offers a wide choice of productions: musicals, drama,
revues, comedies and farce, making it a unique cultural centre for foreign residents and visitors alike and is still the only true live theatre on the Costa del Sol.
The Salon’s Board, SALVA, works very hard to maintain the superb standard that has been achieved over the years by a dedicated band of extremely talented people.

This week Celebrity & Master Chef Steven Saunders, proprietor of The Little Geranium in La Cala celebrates his birthday and cooks one of his favourite dishes … Lobster Thermidor!
Chef Steven’s Birthday!
Steven Saunders FMCGB The Little Geranium La Cala de Mijas www.thelittlegeranium.com
THIS week was my birthday (June 8) and I am still celebrating, but nervous of a big number next year! As a boy I recall my parents bought me a toy machine gun for my birthday, I was about eight years old. It was what I had always wanted. It was circa 1969 and Harold Wilson was the UK Prime Minister. My father disliked him (Dad was a gover nment councillor) and blamed him for everything that was going wrong in the UK. It was quite stressful because every day he would rant on about it and us boys (I have two brothers) literally didn’t know what to say, but
one day I spoke up and said “buy me a machine gun!” Dad replied “what?” and I remember that I tried to explain that Mr Wilson wouldn’t know the difference if it was a toy gun, but the important thing was to scare him away! So, a week or so later it was my birthday and I got a machine gun, complete with plastic bullets and a realistic sound! I wrote to Downing Street from a page from my school book asking to meet Mr Wilson, but I never got a reply. Harold Wilson wasn’t a bad man but his socialist policies were making the middle classes poor so that we had two classes, very rich and poor. Dad would say, that is how socialism works. It makes the middle classes poor, deleting their existence and soon the governments have to look after more poor people and then they run out of money, so enforce more tax-
Boy Steven ... before he became Chef Steven! es on everyone. Meanwhile the very rich are always rich and that includes the gover nments. Doesn’t that sound familiar Snr Sanchez!? In 1995 John Major (who
was prime minister at the time) came for dinner at my Pink Geranium restaurant near Cambridge to celebrate his daughter’s birthday. John Major lives in Huntingdon so it was close by. As he was leaving, he told me that Harold Wilson had just died, it was May 24. I felt sad as it was the end of an era and my thoughts went to his family but also to my father and so I called him from the restaurant to tell him. “Steven, I am sad,” he said, “because you know… they are all as bad as each other!” Winding forwards 25 years, we have seen governments across the world destroying our hospitality industry not with intent, but because they do not understand the importance of hospitality, now we all have to re-invent ourselves to be able to survive. We are opening on July 1 with an all new tasting menu and tapas concept. Basically,
it gives our clients more options on a sort of sliding scale basis. So pre-Covid 19 we had tasting menus starting at €75 upwards and now we will have more tasting menu options at different prices starting from €35 (and no service charge!). I believe (and hope) that this is the way forwards. Everyone should have the chance to eat at The Little Geranium and enjoy a tasting menu and so in effect we will be reaching more people and that is really what hospitality is all about, feeding the world, being versatile, understanding and hospitable! I can’t wait to see all our friends and regulars on July 1, Michele is taking bookings now so contact her by email Michele@thelittlegeranium.co m or go to our website www.thelittlegeranium.com to book. But in the meantime, I am busy because I have a birthday to celebrate!
Steven Saunders’s opinions are his own and are not necessarily representative of those of the publishers, advertisers or sponsors.
Fresh Lobster Thermidor… My favourite dish! Here is my traditional version of the classic recipe:
Ingredients for four 2 large freshly cooked Lobsters each weighing approx. 800g-1 kilo (or live National Spanish lobsters even better) 6 heaped tablespoons of grated Gruyere cheese 3 tablespoons of fresh thick double cream 300ml of béchamel sauce (white sauce thickened with a little flour) 1 tablespoon of English mustard Juice of 1 lemon Maldon salt and white pepper Method for the Thermidor sauce To make the béchamel use a basic recipe from the internet to get 300ml. Spoon the mustard into the warm béchamel sauce and
add the cream and mix with a wooden spoon until smooth. Now add two tablespoons of the Gruyere cheese and stir in and add the juice of one lemon, taste and season. Method for Lobster If you are cooking your own lobster live it is important to put the lobsters to sleep before cooking them by putting them in the freezer for about two hours. Cook them one at a time to maintain the heat of the water. Put some lemon pieces and salt in the water and when it’s boiling rapidly drop in the first lobster. When the water comes back to the boil leave for three minutes, remove with a
slotted spoon and immediately refresh (shock) in ice cold water. Now that you have your cooked lobsters, cut them in halves, remove the claws and remove the meat from the claws. Using a strong pair of kitchen scissors, snip along the bottom shells and then use a large knife to cut the tails into two halves. Remove the lobster body flesh and place back into the shells. Wash away the green substance from the head of the lobster so that you have a clean cavity to fill. Place any of the bits of the cooked lobster leg and the claws from the shell into the

Malaga is rich in history and filled with landmarks of its past, such as the Alcazaba, the ruins of a Roman theatre, a Moorish castle built on the remains of a Phoenician lighthouse, and a beautiful Baroque basilica. Besides having beautiful promenades that are lined with palm trees, Malaga also has its famous street, Calle Marques de Larios, one of the most elegant streets in Spain as well as one of the most desired commercial routes in Europe.

People love it and trust it or they completely loathe it and wouldn’t dream of using it. There is no inbetween. Many of those who say they wouldn’t use it have never used it and have no idea just how useful and fun it can be. Personally, I love marmite on my breakfast toast and I can’t get a big enough dollop of it on my knife and I also love Facebook and can’t see why people have a problem with it.

This 17th-century Baroque church is one of the most essential church buildings in Malaga. A listed historical monument, the Basilica stands at the site wherein the Catholic Monarchs pitched a siege of Malaga in the course of the Reconquest. Another famous art gallery in Malaga is the Centro Pompidou Malaga, a world recognised gallery holding the main art centre in Paris and is one of the greatest houses of 20th century art. The museum is impossible to miss due to its distinguished architecture, a huge colourful glass cube, built with a cultural purpose. This very art gallery hosts different exhibits by world-famous artists that last around one month until a different exhibit is hosted.

Hi everybody at EWN Doggie Angells would like to thank you all for your help over the last year. We have had a great deal of success with rehoming our dogs. Sometimes dogs can be with us for long periods. It’s funny when they are adopted people often say we have been looking at this dog in the paper week after week and we kept wanting to adopt him but the time was just not right. He's still in the paper and we are now ready to have him. So that is great - patience pays off. Again thank you all, we very much appreciate all what you do for our charity. Things slow up for us in August, thank goodness it gives us time to catch up. Kind regards Denise and all at Doggie Angells.

SEPE the horse and donkey charity is open to the public at weekends from 10.00 to 5.00. Volunteers are much needed in all departments and are welcome at any time. For our riding for the disabled classes, we are also in need of extra helpers. We are nationally registered by the Spanish Ministry of the Interior (164640) but only with your support can we give the equine a voice. If you can just commit to 2 or 3 euros a month it will really help make a difference. You can find us at Lauro Golf Equestrian Centre, Alqueria, Alhaurin de la Torre. Tel. 608 258 950 info@sepeonline.net www.sepeonline.net (93321) SOS ANIMAL REFUGE we have dogs, young and old looking for homes. Some of our dogs have been with us for some time and would love to find a cosy spot to curl up in and a knee on which to rest their heads. If you have room in your heart and home we would love to hear from you. We do not put our dogs to sleep - no matter how old, they are safe with us. For day to day needs and to pay for veterinary care, we much appreciate the support we receive. We desperately need items to sell on our market stall to help raise funds and are happy to come and collect. So, if you are having a clear-out, please contact us on 605 227 155. If you would like to know more about re-homing, please call 653 257 875.

Interpol red notice Interpol Red Notice for the immediate apprehension of the Kosovan. Friends claim the relationship had fallen apart and they fought frequently. Detectives in Britain and Germany now urgently want to question her about Bruckner’s time in Portugal at around the time of Madeleine’s disappearance as they build up the case against him.
WORRIES mount for the exteenage girlfriend of jailed paedophile who beat her black and blue. German police are desperately searching for Nakscije Miftari, a young Kosovan girl, who began dating Christian Brueckner when she was only 17. She allegedly suffered serious physical abuse from the convicted rapist and there are genuine concerns for her safety and well-being. In an unprecedented move, German authorities have issued an
THE luxury £18.3 million Swiss mansion owned by Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson is back on the market seven years after the couple bought it.

Attempt to burn Union Jack BLM protests in London got out of control when demonstrators began vandalising and defacing war memorials such as the statue of Winston Churchill and the statue of Jesus on the cross in Hayes. On Sunday June 7 a protestor attempted to burn down the flag of Great Britain at the Cenotaph in Westminster. Moments before the police officers arrival, he was prevented by a young lady, Eleanor Cooke. She jumped in to attempt to prevent the burning of the flag when she was tackled by police officers and was left with an injury on the side of her hip. When asked why she had attempted to stop the protestor she replied with “It is a criminal offence, they need to stop defacing our war memorials and show respect for our ancestors who lost their lives fighting for our freedom, it detracts from the cause, a peaceful protest is far more powerful!”
A BRITISH man who was trapped in a well in Bali for six days has been rescued.

The pictures were shared across Twitter, showing a gathering of men at the harbour trying to retrieve the statue that was pulled down by protestors on Sunday June 6. Colston, a prominent British slave trader, has long been a source of controversy in the city where the statue has been situated since 1895.

Shocking A STUDY has claimed citizens in the USA are actually drinking or inhaling bleach in a desperate bid to fight off the deadly coronavirus. US President Donald Trump bizarrely suggested injections of disinfectants may be a potential treatment to prevent Covid-19 infection earlier this year. The US has now seen tragically high losses from Covid-19. The medical community reacted to President Donald Trump’s suggestion to inject disinfectant or bleach to cure the novel coronavirus (Covid-19) patients, emphasising that it could be fatal. The study showed 10 per cent of people had used a cleaning or disinfecting spray on their bodies, and 6 per cent had inhaled vapour from household cleaners or disinfectants.
