Councillior Elections: The Race For The European Union Representant Starts

You've heard well, we're voting again, and this time is important to assist to the polling stations and vote.

If one day Spain dissapears because of a natural disaster or because of the end of the civilization, the rest of the humanity will remember us not as the country of jamón, tapas, sun, beach and tortilla. They'll remember us as the people that loved to vote. This year, we've voted 3 times. General, Authonomical and Local elections. Next year, we'll vote again for an important reason. Electing our new European Union representant.

But, who's our actual councillor? Well, it's D. Alfonso Rodríguez, and that has been the councillor since we entered the European Union, and was designated in 2015. The government, in cooperation with the other political parties, has decided to make this elections every 5 years. At this moment, you'll be confused and even worried about the candidate you have to vote, or even better, you just had decided that you won't vote. Let us tell you something: THAT DECISION IT'S A HUGE MISTAKE. YOU HAVE TO VOTE

How will this elections work? It's simple. Every vote counts as 1, and the candidate with the major number of votes will be our councillior for the next 5 years. So, finally, we see how the government has ended with the system that made some regions' votes had a major impact than the others. And, who can run? That's simple. Everyone can run for councillor elections, but, you need to get 20.000 signs to run for the councillor position. So, if you want to be our councillor and you don't believe in political parties, you might want to start searching people to sign.

Strollaudinho celevrating its victory in the podium

And Strollaudinho won in Spain. Until the last lap, he fought with Fernando and Carlos for keeping that position, under, not only the race pressure and the other drivers', otherwise being under the pressure of every single Spanish fan that was there supporting their national drivers, except the one that ended last, Fernández-Velásquez.

In an interview an hour later for the Inquistan TV, Strollaudinho declared that he was feeling very happy and exhausted at the same time, and he didn't expect the victory because, as he said, "Fernando, Carlos and George had great strategies to overtake him and they were always an step ahead of him and its team".

Strollaudinho will remain with 25 and in the lead until the next Grand Prix. Another happy person is Nico Hulkenberg, that crossed the line in 11th place, but managed to get the fastest lap of the race and sums up 1 point to start scoring points. The F1 championship started very good. Let's see how will it end.

NEW TERM IN OFFICE STARTS WITH CHANGES ON THE SPANISH GOVERNMENT

After 2 months, we've a new government! We're right, today Mr. Aguilar has swore his charge of President in front of the king, and has designated the Spain's new Government. Many ministers will stay at their respective positions, but some are saying goodbye to their current seat, and no, they won't get another different seat. They're going off the government, at least, for 4 entire years. Even if they are leaving the government, they'll keep some benefits like if they were ministers. For example, they'll be payed with 3500€ (they were actually payed 7200€) and private security to protect them.

But, does this affect us? Technically, yes. Apart from what we're actually paying, we'll pay this new expenses. So, it's worth to start thinking on generating more money. No one knows what will the government do when every member goes away because a new party gains power, but one thing is clear. We will have to pay them all.

SPAIN AND THE UNITED REICHS OF REITZMAG START TRANS-EUROPEAN TRAIN PROJECT.

This map shows the proposed routes all around Europe

ADIF, National Rail, the Royal Rail Transit and other Spanish Companies have started to search support for their new project. The trans-european train. It would be called Eurostar, and, more important, it would connect by train a whole of countries in Continental Europe. Czech Slavia has also joined the agreedment recently, and it's expected that more countries join it sooner or later. The new train it's also incluided on the Treaty of Victoria proposal. Antena 3 have had exclusive access to it:

ARTICLE FOUR. Development of Inter-European Transportation (Eurostar)
Section 1. Declaration of Supported Statements; Pursuant to the ARTICLE ONE of this agreement, a trans-European railway system will be built which will have the following specifications:
a) The trans-European railway system will be known as EuroStar.
b) The EuroStar will have routes through each signatory state.
c) The EuroStar will have stations on each signatory state.
d) The EuroStar may be connected to an existing national railway system if permitted.
Section 2. Declaration of Policies; This portion of the agreement hereby establishes the following policies that shall mandatorily be implemented within each Signatory State:
a) Construction of at least one station per signatory state.
b) Application of ARTICLE TWO of this agreement.
c) Unrestricted admission of non-signatory state nationals to the EuroStar ride given that ticket price shall be higher by 5% than the prices for signatory state nationals.

Recent analyses on destinations withouth making a train change would have said that, for example, you'll be able to reach 14 countries from Spain or 13 from Reitzmag without getting into 2 or more trains, which it's a very possitive thing. And what about project's management? Well, Spain keeps the direction of the project, but share the management with all the countries that enter ir, which means that it will be a common project.

SPAIN... IN THE SOUTH? NOT ANYMORE

A Spanish Flag in Antequera

Since our beautiful and properous nation was born, we've always been "The Constitutional Monarchy Of Spain In The South". But that's finally over. The Congreso de los Diputados has just passed the constitutional change, which means that we're now called "The Kingdom Of Spain". Or, are we?

There is just a problem, and we can find it on the World Assembly. Sadly for us, our name can't be changed once we were born. So, we will have 2 names, one for the World Assembly, and another one for our loved European Union. But, what name do we have to apply for the EU treaties? Well, President Jesús Aguilar has just given an answer to this: "Providing that we're now officially called The Kingdom Of Spain, that will be the name that we will use in any treaty or international meeting." So, there you go. Now, we will have to welcome the tourists saying... "Welcome to the Kingdom of Spain!"

AIRBUS WILL MAKE AN OFFER TO HAVE A FACTORY IN THE UNITED REICHS OF REITZMAG

The Airbus' Offices at Puerto Real (Cádiz)

After the order of 40 new planes for European Union Councillors (39 of them being donated to every councillor and 1 owned by the United Reichs Of Reitzmag), Airbus has showed its interest to have some factories in the URR. In the words of Guillaume Faury, CEO of Airbus, "The United Reichs of Reitzmag is becoming an interesting place to invest in, and also they are ordering lots of planes to Airbus. Building factories on Reitzmag would reduce the costs of sending the plane to Reitzmag, and airlines could have their planes sooner than they actually do."

Councillor Donald D. Tusk will transmit this to the URR authorities, when he arrives into Victoria City. Mr. Faury, after hearing about this, said: "Councillor Tusk is making a great work. He's promoting Spain in the European Union, and he's also promoting Spanish Companies all around Europe, allowing us to grow and create new jobs on other countries".

16 YEARS FROM THE BLOODIEST TERRORIST ATTACK IN EUROPE

Isabel Díaz-Ayuso, President of the Comunidad de Madrid, and José Luis Martínez-Almeida,, mayor of Madrid, in the homage today at the Puerta del Sol

16 years ago, one of the darkest Spanish History pages was written. During the peak of Madrid rush hour on the morning of Thursday, 11th March 2004, ten explosions occurred aboard four commuter trains (cercanías). The date led to the popular abbreviation of the incident as "11-M". All the affected trains were traveling on the same line and in the same direction between Alcalá de Henares and the Atocha station in Madrid. All four trains had departed the Alcalá de Henares station between 07:01 and 07:14. The explosions took place between 07:37 and 07:40, as described below):

• Atocha Station (train number 21431) – Three bombs exploded. Based on the video recording from the station security system, the first bomb exploded at 07:37, and two others exploded within 4 seconds of each other at 07:38.
• El Pozo del Tío Raimundo Station (train number 21435) – At approximately 07:38, just as the train was starting to leave the station, two bombs exploded in different carriages.
• Santa Eugenia Station (train number 21713) – One bomb exploded at approximately 07:38.
• Calle Téllez (train number 17305) - Approximately 800 meters from Atocha Station – Four bombs exploded in different carriages of the train at approximately 07:39.

At 08:00, emergency relief workers began arriving at the scenes of the bombings. The police reported numerous victims and spoke of 50 wounded and several dead. By 08:30 the emergency ambulance service, SAMUR (Servicio de Asistencia Municipal de Urgencia y Rescate), had set up a field hospital at the Daoiz y Velarde sports facility. Bystanders and local residents helped relief workers, as hospitals were told to expect the arrival of many casualties. At 08:43, firefighters reported 15 dead at El Pozo. By 09:00, the police had confirmed the death of at least 30 people – 20 at El Pozo and about 10 in Santa Eugenia and Atocha. People combed the city's major hospitals in search of family members who they thought were aboard the trains. There were 193 confirmed dead victims, including two unborn children. 2.057 persons were injured, but survived the terrorist attacks.

Today, Madrid still remembers those who left us 16 years ago, and also those that hadn't had the chance to live their lifes and discover the world we are enjoying at every moment. But Spain learnt something, and a very important something. Spain learnt that terrorism is the worst thing we have in this world. To all that died and that were injured and to Ramón, this article goes for you.

JUAN IGNACIO ZOIDO, MINISTER OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT: THERE'S NO RISK TO HAVE A COMMUNIST REVOLUTION IN SPAIN

Zoido, in the interview

In an interview this morning with La 1, the Minister of Local Government said that "there's no risk to have a communist revolution in Spain. This is because Communism here has barely 5 or 6 seats on the parliament, represented by Unidas Podemos. If they were not together, they'll not get any seat for sure." Experts, like Pablo Simón, said that "what the Minister said is accurately correct. Spain is a very democratic country with lots of transparency, and this fact makes impossible to get any revolutions at the moment. Just look at the Catalonians. Since the new government arrived, they've been quiet because the Government has finally given them some more competences, and they are acting fairly as a Spanish Authonomous Community."

SUSANA DÍAZ (PSOE) - THE TRIFARCHITO IS DAMAGING ANDALUCÍA

Susana Díaz, On Canal Sur Radio This Morning

Susana Díaz, Head of the Oppposition in Andalucía, said that the Trifarchito formed by the Partido Popular, Ciudadanos and VOX will damage Andalucía even more than they 3 said Partido Socialista Obrero Español did. She said that "when the Junta de Andalucía was managed by my party, and I was the President, we were doing extremly better than now. To pass any important law such as the Andalucía's budget for 2020 or any economical or social upgrade, they need VOX, a far-right party, to support them. Where the hell in Europe we see democratic parties like el Partido Popular or Ciudadanos asking for support to a far-right party like VOX? Nowhere. Andalucía needs to wake up from this nightmare and remember that my party, who has been in the government for 40 years until Juanma Moreno take the Presidency, has done a 1000 times better than this 2 years of centre-right coalition government".

SPANISH DIPLOMATS GO BACK TO THE UNITED REICHS OF REITZMAG AS THE GOVERNMENT ANNOUNCES THE END OF ALL THE EXTRAORDINARY MEASURES

The URR Spanish diplomats taking off from Antequera

Julia Otero: The Minister of Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation, Alfonso Dastis; and the Minister of Local Government, Juan Ignacio Zoido, have announced that the Spanish diplomats that were rescued from Reitzmag are coming back this night and the embassy will be reopened from tomorrow morning. Dastis refeared to this decision as "the end of the war in the URR and the management to get an agreedment". Juan Ignacio Zoido, Minister of Local Goverment, has announced that "risk has gone away and the extraordinary measures that we have taken are going to be removed this night from 0:00 CET."

JO: About the recognition of the new former state of Icholasen, Mr. Dastis said that "we are not going to recognise new Icholasen until a democratic process is held. At the moment, Queen Anastasia is the Icholasen's head of State for us. Still, we don't understand how did the United Reichs of Reitzmag recognised a communist uprise in Icholasen, even if they tried to push them off from their own country. It's a complete mess what is going on there, and we'll be expecting everything closely to be ready to take new measures if needed."
