THE KING JUAN CARLOS GOT 100 MILLION EUROS IN DONATIVES FROM ARABIC COUNTRIES

King Juan Carlos I got 100 million euros in donatives from Arabic countries in 2008. That's what El Confidencial has been able to extract from the short revealed conversations between Corinna Larssen and police officer Villarejo, which took place in Saint Dominico, Inquista, in December 2018, when she was presumably kidnapped by the Intelligence Services (Centro Nacional de Inteligencia). She said that this donatives came from regions Spain shared business with before joining the European Union back in 2018, and that money was located in a tax haven and was never declared to the Spanish Authorities.

King Felipe VI is supposed to make an statement this evening after knowing about this informations. According to the Royal Household, Felipe VI didn't know anything about his father's fortune, and never got anything from him. Pablo Iglesias, from Unidas Podemos, has asked the people to take the streets to force a Republic and also, he has asked the king to abdicate and run away from Spain.

EUnews - MEETING COVERING BY HUX STEVENS
6th July 2020

It's a rainy day in Europolis. The airport registered showers and strong winds when the leaders were arriving into Europolis. While some like flying, others don't, which means that they would have to resist and pray for not having any major incident. If we had the Eurostar, they could come by train, but the project is kind of stuck right now, even if Commissioner Juncker confirmed to us that he is making it a thing, and the plan has been presented.

The meeting went well according to Juncker. "It's been very exhausting, but productive", he said. But he has said more than actually that, all the leaders have. In fact, we can know what happened in that room. Not the conversations, not the real words. But we know what they've been talking about. Here's a resume:

• The Arrival

Arrivals were kind of funny. Jesús Aguilar met with his buddies Juncker and Tusk, Simon Bridges was met by Cllr. van Allen and arrived on a plane with a "United Kingdom" livery and no Reitzmic flag on it, Lord Christopher from Inimicus gave some elegance to the summit while Mikaela Klienberg was just Mikaela Klienberg (we all love her, no one can actually deny that.) If you don't love Mikaela, then you don't have taste. Kenith Lifejumper from Leagio has been the surprise of the summit, Katrin Weber was dizzy, Samantha Terrace arrived with the Premier Commissioner, Nylund being the coolest European leader once again, Dante Maximillian arrived with lots of papers (as seen in the photos), the new Malboryan Prime Minister Archambault lived in his eyes how his driver wanted to leave him 500m away the building, Slavomira looked worried and some others arrived late, like the Fremetian delegate or Emryc Isla.

• All ready, time to start

The start wasn't easy. While Juncker told the leaders to make proposals, a pandemic debate started. It seemed that the meeting was going out of hand, but the Commissioner acted in time to stop the debate and remember the leaders what they shall do in that meeting thread. They finally started making proposals, and the agenda was finally revealed.

First stop, Junckrojects

Juncker started making proposals. A new Internal Affairs building, extending the Commission terms and giving information about the EU app were his main proposals. He also called the countries to encourage culture. Suddenly, the Mennrimian councillor entered the hall, making us see the most embarrasing moment of the meeting. After that, the leaders spoke to Juncker and the debate continued, with some accusations like "power hungry". Some leaders were surprised about the happenings and wanted to answer those that still were in the hall.

• Diplomacy and Tensions, the boring point

Diplomacy and Tensions was like the point of the agenda no one wanted to listen. Spain and Reitzmag had their "only one speech" debate, Bridges calling things to the Internal Affairs Commissioner as usual and Samantha Terrace giving attention to the coup of Icholasen, which was also over the table. Inquista (Mikaela Klienberg) went full motivation and proposed an embargo to the Communists in Icholasen. Nofoaga was also mentioned by Kenith and Jesús, as Eastern Haane problems. Juncker answered everyone and then, moved to the third point.

• Climate and Industrial Activities, a yes but no

Not many took their turn in this point. Only 3 leaders spoke, which was highly confusing. Do European leaders care about Climate change? Or they just didn't care? Maybe they don't have a former opinion? Who really knows. Eurostar was mentioned in this point, in which Juncker, in his response, explained his plan. Sadly, no one revealed it, so the Commissioner still keeps the secret alive. But for how long? The Commissioner proposed to turn Europolis building to green energy, and also a Climate Change Summit to sign an agreement.

• Free Movement & Trade, never happening

The most negative point was the Free Movement and Trade. While free movement is never happening, free trade could be a thing if the leaders could agree on this last thing. Some opposed to Free Trade too, but a light can be seen at the end of the tunnel.

• Proposals, Thank you, Goodbye

And we reached the end. Proposals made by the different member states were discussed, everyone that made a speech thanked Juncker for his managment of the meeting and it's over. It's been hours, too many leaders but a single word: Unity. Europe is not divided at all. At least, the leaders want to meet together for 5 hours in the same room.

BREAKING - JULIÁN SÁNCHEZ MELGAR, GENERAL ATTOURNEY, TAKES REITZMAG - UNSR AGREEMENT TO THE ECoJ

The Spanish General Attourney, Julián Sánchez Melgar has taken the Reitzmic - Communist Nicoleizian agreement to the European Court of Justice. Since the reveal of the agreement, which took place on March 26th, the Spanish General Attourney have been looking into this, which in his opinion violates the Condemnation of the Coup in Icholasen on 3 articles: 1 and 2 from Section 1; and article 1 from Section 2.

The ECoJ will now start the procedures to see if they hear the case of not. Recently, Councillor Tusk said that "taking the money's return from Reitzmag to the UNSR was stupid, but petition the agreement signed in Vayinaod wasn't." Antena 3 and its journalist for the European Union, Guillermo Pascual, will be telling you the latest news we get from this petition.

KING JUAN CARLOS - MORE THINGS DISCOVERED ON THE SCANDAL

The King, on an archive photo

The King Juan Carlos' scandal does not cease to grow. Cars, apartments, big houses in luxury urbanisations and lots of undeclared money in tax heavens all around the world are what we know about the monarch's secrets, which have been revealed by Corinna Larssen. These records by Villarejo have made Corinna to recieve a citation to declare on the Tribunal Supremo on September in his own trial, which was closed 2 years ago because of lack of proofs, but now, the judiciary authorities have reopened the case and want to know more about what happened.

At the moment, King Felipe VI and the President, Jesús Aguilar, are thinking on what to do with these while pro-Republic protests take place all around the country. Those protests aren't so relevant (assistance is between 100 and 2.000 persons). As far as Público reached to know, the King Felipe would suggest his father to leave Spain and take exile in St. Dominico, Inquista or any other place like Nofoaga, where Spain has militar bases as part of the treaty signed. Nothing is clear at the moment, but it's possible that this August, we know the final result.

BREAKING - KING JUAN CARLOS I LEAVES SPAIN AFTER CORRUPTION SCANDAL, TRIBUNAL SUPREMO TO GIVE VEREDICT IN SEPTEMBER ABOUT POSSIBLE TRIAL AGAINST THE MONARCH

A part of the letter that King Juan Carlos I has send to his son, King Felipe, and that has been used as a Communicate.

King Juan Carlos has left Spain and moved to an unknown place in the European Union. That's what the recent Royal Household communicate has revealed in a letter to his Majesty the King Felipe VI, in which he told the King about the reasons that motivated this decision to go away from Spain. The King would have left Spain some days ago according to different Spanish media.

In that letter, the King remembered his reign and his choice to left the institutional activities just one year ago. In March this year, King Felipe VI had to remove the salary of his father as the scandal started to grow. His son, Felipe VI, has re-marked the historical importance that Juan Carlos' reign represents. Now, the bids start. Where will the King have moved to? Does he have private securoty, or some Royal Guards are travelling with him? We won't know until someone reveals it. This marks the end of the biggest challenge that his Majesty the King, Felipe VI, has had to face during his reign. In September, the Tribunal Supremo will have a say on opening a trial against the King for this Corruption scandal if some of the happenings took place after 2014.

PABLO IGLESIAS SAYS REPUBLIC SHALL BE ESTABLISHED

Pablo Iglesias, Unidas Podemos leader, this morning in the Congreso

The institutional crisis is real. While King Juan Carlos has left Spain and moved to an unknown location, Pablo Iglesias, from Unidas Podemos, has made an statement this morning in the Congreso, which was discussing a non-law proposal to start the Monarchy - Republic procedures. In the debate, Pablo Iglesias has charged the Government of "not being able to kick the Borbones out of the country and being scared because they know this is the last time they are getting power in lots of years". He also said that "young people want a Republic because they don't trust on the 'Régimen del 78', which some 'fascists' like Manuel Fraga or 'recently discovered fascists' as Felipe González created to get their bank accounts full of money."

Pedro Sánchez has criticized the words Pablo Iglesias has used to talk about the old Spanish President, Felipe González: "Mr. Iglesias, it's a shame you say Felipe González, a President that have done more for the Spanish democracy than you in your whole life, is a fascist. The only fascists here are the deputees from VOX, who want to take us back to Franco year where everyone that didn't think like them was killed or opressed like the catalans. You need to excuse yourself right now". Pablo Iglesias didn't excuse himself and added: "Your wishes are as stupid as thinking you'll get to be the next Spanish President alone, Pedro".

The Spanish President, Jesús Aguilar, answered Pablo Iglesias in a very hard speech: "Mr. Iglesias, you say that the 78's Regime wanted to fill their bank accounts with money... Didn't you buy recently a house for 600.000€? I think you also want to fill your bank account with money, but of course, you need to lie to those that don't have the same amount of money than you. Republic won't be established, not under my direction, and I would like to remember the Partido Socialista about the Constitutional Agreement we reached in 1978 in which, along with the Communist Party and many other political parties, we said that a Parliamentary Monarchy was the best way to build the new Spain all wished".

NEW CATALONIAN AUTONOMY STATUS REVEALED IN THE PARLIAMENT BY TORRA AND AGUILAR

The Parlament de Catalunya

"The conflict is finally over". With that words, the Spanish President Jesús Aguilar started his speech, that was applauded by mostly all the parties in the Parlament except the Candidatura d' Unitat Popular (CUP), a Catalonian and pro-rupturist anarchist party that has critiquized the sign of this agreement and has threatened the Catalan President and Mr. Aguilar: "We won't stay silent. Mr. Torra has sold our national sovereignty to the colonialists of Spain, we won't stop until we get what we want."; said the party leader.

Quim Torra has defended the new Estatut de Autonomía: "This is the last step of a really long negotiation that has taken months and we had to put lot of effort into." The new statut defends the use of the Catalan languages, a new way to distribute money into the autonomous community, The referendum voting will take place after the Congress passes the new Estatut and, most probably, after the new Catalan Elections that are set to take place between October and November this year. New challenges are coming to the old secessionists parties, which will need to bring new ideas before the campaign starts.

DERAILMENT IN STONEHAVEN KILLS 3

A ScotRail train derailed in Stonehaven yesterday killing the driver, a passenger and the train's conductor in Stonehaven, Aberdeenshire. It's believed that the derailment was caused by the heavy storms the Autonomous Community has suffered during the last days, that have flodded many towns including the tiny village of Stonehaven. The British Transport Police, special Transport force for the Autonomous Communities of Scotland and Londres, confirmed 3 deaths. Minutes later, ScotRail posted a tweet thanking everyone for their support messages and confirming the deaths of those 3 persons.

Today, major disruptions remain on the ScotRail network because of the recent weather and the derailment. Services affected are Glasgow to Edinburgh via Falkirk High, Edinburg - Dublane, Glasgow/Edinburgh - Inverness via Perth (which station flodded yesterday), Fife Circle, Glasgow/Edinburgh - Aberdeen, Aberdeen - Montrose and Inverurie - Stonehaven. Investigations are being done while the railways family tries to recover from this hard kick. Nicola Studgeon will attend to the funeral, and the Spanish Government is expected to make a statement through the Ministry of Transport.

BYE MBNA, HELLO UBER

The Jupiter Clipper with the new brand

Private transportantion enterprise "Uber" has taken over the Clippers service in London after negotiations with Transport for London (TfL) and the Mayor of London, Sadik Khan. MBNA managed the service until last week, when it was left over to Uber. The Mayor of London made an statement concerning the new managment of the River Services: "Uber boats will bring a new, high-quality service that will increase frecuency and lines all around London, making the passengers confortable and satisfied with the new service. I would like to thank MBNA for their huge effort during the past years."

Uber boats have established a temporary route and timetable in order to make the new lines on the River services, while users say that "this was an unnecesary change" or "it will for sure be better". Londres is divided, but the Institutions seems not to.

BREAKING - SUBMARINE MOUNT WITH TELLURIUM DISCOVERED SOUTH OF THE CANARY ISLANDS IN SPANISH WATERS - SPANISH ARMY DEPLOYS 2 FRIGATES IN ORDER TO AVOID FOREIGN INCURSIONS

The Cristobal Colón frigate, departing from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria

A major surprise appeared in the offices of the Canarian President, Ángel Víctor Torres, and the Spanish Ministers of Science, Innovation And 2030 Agenda and Agriculture, Food And Environment, Víctor Calvo Sotelo and Isabel García Tejerina. The research boat Hespérides, who was doing some research in the Strait of Adventuranza zone, was returning to the Canary Islands when all the radars started to detect a submarine mount. The Hespérides then discovered it was a submarine mount, which has Tellurium in it. It has been named Mount Tropic, and is in Spanish territorial waters as the Bambiche, Echo and the Paps.

After the news were received by both Canarian and Spanish Government, the Minister of Defence has ordered 2 frigates in Las Palmas de Gran Canarias to stay alert in case any incursion is detected. The Spanish Government will debate along with the Congress how to protect the zone, apart from doing some research and discovering what materials can be found there.

INTERNAL AFFAIRS: POLLS - JUNCKER LEADS, KATRIN WEBBER STANDS SECOND

The European Commission elections are approaching and we have recieved the first polls, for Internal Affairs in this case. According to GAD3, the most prestigious polls-maker in Spain, Jean-Claude Juncker would win today with a huge majority and advantage from the second, exactly of 50 points. The incumbrent Commissioner is reaching huge amount of votes thanks to his popularity and the endorsement coming from the Partido Socialista, Ciudadanos and several nationalists and regionalists parties such as the PNV, Coalición Canaria or Teruel Existe. These parties think that it's better to get a Spanish candidate in the Commission than a foreigner, and that could be the reason why these endorsements are getting Juncker's votes up and up.

In second place, surprinsingly we find the Eastern Haanean candidate, Katrin Webber. Endorsed by Unidas Podemos, Webber is increasing its voters and popularity all around Spain, specially on Asturias, Portugalia, Grequia and El Rif, but not as many as Sophie is winning from those autonomous communities in her race for being Europe's newest Premier Commissioner. Running as an independent candidate while being in a close position to the PEL (Party of the European Left) really makes her lost votes in favour of John Oliver.

And finally, we have a tie between Atty. Edmund Winston and John Oliver. Winston, which his proposals are outrageous and his hate towards everything he hasn't made (specially towards Spain) awards him with being the most disliked candidate in Spain. His most close rival, John Oliver, might start overtake him if he doesn't perform a good debate and loses against everyone.

The elections will be an easy way for Juncker as of now, but the 2nd place will be a very hard fight between 3 candidates that will need to deploy all its arms to win the battle.

PREMIER - TECHNICAL TIE BETWEEN MERKEL AND COCX

Merkel and Coxc are really tied after the not so relevant camapign the European Progressive Alliance have done. Coxc, who has mostly the same message than Merkel, has come to Málaga and stayed close to the citizens, which made him approach to Merkel much more than ever. Still, he would be in second because of Senator Kirstin, who is stealing some votes to the Inimican candidate.

"Sophierce" would be getting all the Trympov voters which voted for him on the last election. Her affiliation to the Party of the European Left would help her as Unidas Podemos alredy endorsed her. Asturias would be where everyone supports her. Finally Trympov would get a 1% mostly coming from Ceuta, in which Merkel has lost some terrain and where, in the national view, VOX has gained more and more influence.

THE NIGHTMARE IS GETTING BIGGER

The firefigters at night, near Almonaster la Real

It's considered to be the nightmare of this summer that will be soon leaving us. Some even call it hell for some videos that they have been able to see. But the truth is that the fire is getting bigger and bigger and it's uncontroled. 400 firefighters and 28 planes and helicopers from the Army and the IINFOCA service (the autonomical service to extiguish wild fires in Andalucía) are trying to control this fire that is growing more and more, and nothing stops it. The climatical conditions don't help too: The wind doesn't cease to be strong which helps the fire to expand all along the Sierra de Huelva. 3000 people have been evacuated and 10,000 hectares have burnt during the fire.

The Agriculture Councillor, María Crespo, has said the land that has been flattened by the fire has a really low ecological value. This words have been very unpopular between the Andalusian people, with some calling her stupid or saying she is not ready to manage everything. The Andalucía's President, Juanma Moreno, has said: "We need to let the profesionals work and we, the politicians, need to stay out of their work. We can come someday, as we are responsible of caring our autonomy, to visit them, show them your support and being informed with the most recent data thay have. But if we are not helping, we need to go back to our offices and follow the news there."

The Unidad Militar de Emergencias (UME) is ready to deploy more efectives if needed. Neighbouring autonomies like Escocia, Asturias and Portugalia have offered their help. Extremadura is also fighting 2 fires, which makes it unable to offer anything.

BREAKING - AGUILAR DISCARDS ANY ARMY DEPLOYMENT IN THE COUNTRY'S STREETS

If you expected the Government to get the tanks, the navy and the whole Ejército del Aire out to the streets, then remain seated. President Jesús Aguilar has discarded any military intervention in the Congress this evening, as he has offered to give explanations on the rise of tensions between Spain and Reitzmag. "Ladies and gentlemen, our measures are more than enough to keep security in Spain." He said just after starting his speech on the Congreso. "Spain is a paceful nation, and it will show the European Union that it's not seek for conflict but for finding a way to solve this as soon as possible", he continued; "the army is not going to be deployed and will keep it's affairs in Inimicus and Nofoaga like if everything was fine. There's no need to be tense, no need to be alarmed. We are not under a possible war and Spain is not going to take war as a way to solve the conflict."

Pedro Sánchez, the head of the opposition, has offered his support to the Spanish Government in any way that his party could say: "I'm not the one that gets to agree with the Government on many things, but first is peace and the Government will always have full support of the PSOE to keep peace in Spain and pass as much measures as needed to avoid deploying the army and entering a war we don't want." Albert Rivera has also entered this position, but he has added something: "I believe that the Madrid Agreement and the Nofoagan Defence Service we are actually giving is a good way to cooperate, but we shall not turn crazy. That army is there to protect Inimicus and Spain, as Inimicus is defending us too. Let's not ruin this agreements".

The hard line was taken by both Unidas Podemos and VOX, extremists parties that have critiqued the Government. Pablo Iglesias has said thaat the Government must retire every single military personnel from Inimicus and Nofoaga and break those agreements now if we are a truly peaceful nation, while VOX's leaders, Santiago Abascal, has directly spoken to the President: Mr. Aguilar, the time to the next election is running and you are ruining who was our best ally, Reitzmag. Moreover, you've got 3 nations alongside you on your crusade against a country that has done nothing bad but being a pain in the neck to you. Stop this craziness and get the relations as they were before."

The Government remains calmed and waiting new answers. Meanwhile, in Huelva, the fire has been stabilied. Some goos news on a day that will be remembered as the day tensions started to raise. Let's hope this is for the best, for a mediation, for the end of a conflict Spain has never wanted to be involved on.

BREAKING - JUNCKER WINS BY LANDSLIDE; MERKEL NEARLY TIES WITH COCX

Results have come out in Spain after a very intense day of voting. Angela Merkel and Jean-Claude Juncker, both from the European Progressive Alliance, have won the elections. In the Premier Commissioner race, a 2nd competitor was just 0.1 points behind Merkel: Walter Cocx. He has been the surprise of this election: Dividing the EPA vote and attracting VOX voters for the fake sexist poster that was revealed by Kerstin. The margin between Merkel and Cocx was decided by a bunch of votes in Puerto Rico, which has decided the election. Cikarova is in 3rd with a 16.1% of the votes, 0.1 points over Kerstin, in 4th place. While Cikarova votes are just Unidas Podemos and Communists parties, Kerstin has attracted many PSOE voters that felt theirselves unrepresented plus the Catalonian independentists, which wanted to support the ELDR just to frustrate the Government. In last place, with a 1% of the votes, we find Trympov, which gained Ceuta but not for much, which made him have only a 1%.

In the Internal Affairs Commissioner race, the results have been clearer. Jean-Claude Juncker has been votes by mostly everyone, reaching an impressive 67% of the votes. In 2nd place we find Katrin Webber, that surprisingly has earned a 15% of the vote. And in last place we find Oliver, which was backed up by many VOX voters all around (and not in C euta like Trympov) and Winston, who won in Catalonia thanks to the Independentists support.

These elections might have come to an end, but Spain will have to vote again in 4 months. We'll see what happens when Juncker can't run again, which would happen if he won this election in Europe.

BREAKING - SPANISH CITIZENS ARRIVE IN MADRID AFTER BEING RESCUED FROM EASTERN HAANE

Spanish citizens and their families have just arrived into the Torrejón de Ardoz airbase after being rescued by 2 Airbus A310. The Government, which sent the aircraft this afternoon, wanted to rescue everyone to not lose any Spanish Innocent life: "We seek for peace but also for our nationals lifes. We needed to rescue them and their families, which some of them are Haaneans but they keep their houses here. I'm proud of what the Government is doing and we need to continue on that way". Said Alfonso Dastis.

The rescued citizens have thanked the Government for their fast response: "I'm not a fan of this Government, but we need to recognise when they do things well. The rescue has been fast and now I know we can count with this Government when I'm on risk. Still, I won't vote for them as they aren't my best choice to vote". Said Juan, one of the rescued persons. In other news, the Congress has voted to pass sanctions on Eastern Haane for this Coup d'Etat and Civil War, joining Inimicus on these actions. The Congreso also voted a proposal from Podemos to reverse sanctions on the UNSR, which was refused by all the parties except Unidas Podemos.

FIRST NOFOAGAN PASSENGERS WITH FREE MOVEMENT ARRIVE INTO LONDRES GATWICK AIRPORT

The recently signed Treaty of Port Beauharnais has started to work. From midnight, passengers coming from the Republic Nofoaga won't need any VISA or identification. The first passengers arrived this morning into the London Gatwick Airport, being very excited to be the first people that didn't need a VISA. The Londonian authorities, lead by the Prime Minister of the Autonomy, have welcomed all the passengers.

One of them has been interviewed by us: "We booked this trip 2 months ago after the Military Treaty, as we wanted to know the country that was protecting our island, our houses, our seas. When the treaty was signed and we saw that it would start to work today, we celebrated it. We couldn't believe that at the end, we won't need to wait for 10 minutes here in the airport until a permission was granted by the authorities. Now, I'm excited to visit the country. I will rent a car and see Londres and Madrid during my trip, but I'll need to come back, as there's lot to see here." Said the traveller. Today, the very first Spanish passengers that arrived into Nofoaga haven't needed a VISA. This could be the start of a common policy in terms of borders by the EU, or just for Spain. Welcome everyone, anyway.

THE NEW SPANISH BUDGET RAISES SPEND ON HEALTHCARE, EDUCATION AND CULTURE

The Minister of Finances and Public Fuction, Cristóbal Montoro, will reveal the Spanish Budget for the next year tomorrow along with the Minister of Economy, Luis de Guindos and the Congress President, Ana Pastor.The budget, which the Government will rveeal tomorrow but some details have come out, will be the first one to get the expenses and benefits in Emus instead of Euros, after the sign of the Treaty of Finisterre in Galicia.

The budget will raise the spend on healthcare, education and culture. In Healthcare, a major raise of the budget has been made to build an estrategic building in which health materials would be storaged.

In Education, the Government will deliver an extra raise in order to modernize our system and get ready for the new educational reform coming next year and starting to work in September 2021. Finally, in Culture, the Government has decided to raise the spend as part of their culture programme.

Pedro Sánchez isn't happy enough with the budget, refearing to them as the margination of poor people and the non-empathic budget. Pablo Iglesias has said it's better to burn this papers and make a new one from scratch. Abascal meanwhile has said getting taxes low is great, but they would like to see more expense of defence, which has been raised. Ciudadanos has refeared to it as a good budget that they will support in exchange of some more benefits for the Spanish people the Government has forgotten about.

2 COLD-CORE LOWS STRIKE BALEARES AND THE SOUTH OF SPAIN

Damaged made last night by the Cold-Core Low in Baleares

Ibiza won't be partying until Friday. 2 cold-core lows, one affecting the Balearic Islands and the other going over Catalonia and the Comunitat Valenciana are causing severe damages in houses and cars. Last night, some rocks feel down a mountain near to some houses, getting some rocks of over 100 kilograms to crash into the houses walls. In Catalonia, Castelldelfells has flod after 130l/m2 fell in just an hour.

The rains will remain in those areas until Thursday, when they leave towards the South of Europe and finally dissapearing before hitting the Southern European Continent. The neighbours will have to recover from this rains that, every year, floods their cities and houses and no one does nothing to avoid it. The wrong way of building the cities and the houses back in the Franco era is one of the reasons why always those villages flood.

FERNANDO ALONSO, FORMULA 1 CHAMPION

Fernando Alonso celebrating his championship win after being 4th in Inquista

The Formula 1 Championship is over this season. During the whole season, we have seen 2 Grand Prix Cancelled, a replacement one in Reitzmag and a crazy race in Inquista in which the points value was multiplied by 2. Daniel Ricciardo took the win on Inquista, which allowed him to score 50 points. But if he was important, there was someone else being important too. The new world champion is Spanish, and it's called Fernando Alonso.

Carlos Sainz went in 2nd and Fernando needed to get some points to win. He crossed the line in P4 and his engineer told him: "Ok Fernando, P4, P4.", a message to which the driver suddenlty answered: "Get in there Sam! WE ARE THE CHAMPIOOOONS, WE ARE THE CHAMPIOOOOOOOOONS". The team boss, Zak Brown, entered the frequency to congrat Fernando: "Fernando, awesome job, awesome job. Bertín is really proud of you result. Carlos P2, we are also World Champions in Constructors. Gracias Fernando, gracias." The celebrations went on during the afternoon in the circuit, with Carlos Sainz on 2nd place in the standings.

Today, Oviedo will turn on red. A huge celebration is expected to happen this afternoon to celebrate Fernando's World Championship. The Marea Roja, that's how Fernando fans have called theirselves, will flood the city of Oviedo to celebrate with his favourite driver. Let's see if next year will happen the same thing.
