By Joe Gerrard THE man awaiting trial for the alleged kidnapping of Agnese Klavina has been arrested in connection with an incident where a man was run over and his car stolen. Craig Porter, a Briton in his late 30’s was arrested in Estepona while on bail awaiting trial on kidnapping charges that date back to 2014. He has been the subject of a police search for his part in an alleged attempted manslaughter since August 24. The probe is in relation to an alleged hit and run and carjacking said to have taken place in Estepona. A police patrol found and detained him in Marbella in what began as an attempt to trace a speeding vehicle.

PM speaks at UN Sanchez calls for empathy and co-operation in speech By Joe Gerrard SPAIN’S Prime Minister said that every country had an obligation to work towards solving global challenges in his first United Nations (UN) speech last Thursday. Pedro Sanchez spoke before the UN’s General Assembly in New York. The body has seen other world leaders including British Prime Minister Theresa May and United States President Donald Trump address it in recent weeks. Sanchez said Spain was committed to defending the values that underpinned the UN including co-operating with other states, fighting for human rights and working towards global peace and security. He added all countries had a responsibility to show empathy

when facing common challenges. “This time does not need national or exclusive messages. We all have an obligation to help,” he said. Sanchez said Spain had demonstrated its commitment to UN values by rejecting

“nationalist” narratives of ongoing migration into the country from Africa and the Middle East. “I feel proud of a society that has not allowed itself to be radicalised by xenophobic rhetoric based on fear of the other,” he said. The Prime Minister went on to defend Spain’s handling of the issue which he said was designed to tackle the root causes of migration including poverty and environmental damage. The comments come as Spain and other countries prepare to sign the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration in Marrakech in Morocco this December.

‘DEMOCRACTIC YEARS’: The Provisional Government took power after the revolution

Revolt turns 150 THE 150th anniversary of Spain’s Glorious Revolution took place last week, a period which saw the overthrow of a Spanish monarch and the country’s first republic take power. Several events have been put on to mark the occasion of Spain’s brief Sexenio Democratico, including round table discussions with historians in Madrid last Tuesday and this Wednesday. The Sexenio Democratico, six democratic years in English, refers to the period from 1868 when Isabella II was overthrown and the restoration of the monarchy under Alfonso XII in 1875. Discontent over the Queen’s rule erupted during the 1860’s in the wake of the first financial crisis of Spanish capitalism in 1866 and political problems. A group of disgruntled progressives and democrats, including General Juan Prim, met in Ostend in Belgium in 1866. They agreed to overthrow Isabella II and to create a democratically-elected assembly in her place. Naval forces under the command of Admiral Juan Bautista Topete mutinied in Cadiz in September 1868. Generals Prim and Francisco Serrano decided

to act and arrived in Spain shortly after to seize power. Forces loyal to the Queen were defeated at the Battle of Alcolea on September 28. Isabella left Spain for France where she died in exile in 1904. Democratic, liberal and republican political factions sought to create a coalition to govern Spain and formed the Provisional Government. They decided to create a constitutional monarchy and eventually decided Amadeo of Savoy should rule. A new constitution was approved as a democratic Cortes created, with all men over the age of 25 given the vote. The government granted freedom to the press and also abolished slavery. King Amadeo I’s rule lasted two years. His reign was followed by the First Spanish Republic which was proclaimed in 1873. It was beset by revolt from Carlists loyal to the monarchy and gave way to a dictatorship under General Serrano in 1874. Serrano stepped aside at the end of that year. Prince Alfonso, son of Isabella II, travelled from England to Spain and became King Alfonso XII ending one of Spain’s first experiments with democracy.

How very sad WHEN one hears about the devastation following the underwater earthquake that set off another Tsunami, this time in Indonesia, it makes you realise how petty one’s own problems can be. With nearly 900 people reported dead already and the expectation that this number will steadily increase as more remote areas of the affected island are reached, it seems that no matter what anyone does nature will always be in control. It is reported that there were supposed to be 21 buoys in the surrounding waters set to give early warning of any potential Tsunami, but also according to reports all of them had either been stolen or vandalised which meant that they were of no real use. Sadly, although a warning was broadcast, the actual warning was not accurate as it underestimated the likely severity, many people didn’t receive the warning due to power cuts caused by the earthquake and there were no sirens in place to given any last minute warnings. Indonesia is a largely Muslim country, but this event took no notice of age, sex or religion with 34 children at a Bible Camp being killed and a mosque being totally destroyed. Life has to go on for those who survived, but already there is looting as people are in desperate need for supplies and the aid convoys that are en route have to be escorted. As far as global disasters are concerned, this is a relatively small one, but for everyone personally involved the effects cannot be underestimated.

Legal system ‘failing’ women Judge speaks out after spate of deaths By Joe Gerrard SPAIN’S justice system is failing to stop gender violence, a judge claimed last week, after several deaths including one following a restraining order against a victim’s partner not being granted. Juan Luis Ibarra, chief justice at the Basque Country’s regional High Court, said the refusal of the restraining order on Maguette Mbeugou’s husband was failure ‘in capital letters.’ Mbeugou, 25, died after her throat was slit in Bilbao on Tuesday September 26. A court had turned down a request for a restraining order on her husband on the grounds she planned to move away with her children. Mbeugou was one of five people, three women and two children, who died in alleged domestic violence cases in Spain in the space of 48 hours.

‘FAILING’: Legal rulings in gender violence cases have sparked outrage this year. A total of 38 have died in gender violence-related cases so far this year, bringing the total of those killed to 962 since records began. A group representing female judges called on the government to adopt a 16-point plan designed to fight sexist violence and to back it with funding. Measures include increasing education and awareness campaigns, particularly among children and young people. Lucia Aviles, a member of the Female Judge Association

of Spain (AMJE), said gender violence was a social problem and that the justice system was only one part of that. “The justice system is failing, but we keep expecting the problem of sexist violence to be resolved by the justice system. when this problem goes beyond judges, prosecutors and lawyers,” Aviles said. Octavio Salazar, a legal gender issues specialist, said technical failures were being made which meant those at risk of violence were not getting the pro-

tection they needed. “Our current police and forensic-based tools are either non-existent, insufficient or deficient,” Salazar said. “There is a lack of credibility granted to women, which is part of a sexist legal culture that is still very much present among judges,” the specialist added. Flor de Torres, a gender violence prosecutor in Andalucia, said reforming offenders was also proving difficult. “They don’t take in what they’ve done, and that is the basis for change.” she said. De Torres added between 50 and 60 per cent of restraining orders were broken, according to her own experience. The prosecutor said it was also difficult getting women to testify against their attackers. “They are not strong in this process. They are not empowered, they are scared. We cannot put all the moral weight on the victims,” she said. The comments come as protests against gender violence rulings have rocked Spain in recent months. Thousands of people took to the streets after five defendants in the La Manada (wolf pack) case were acquitted of rape and convicted of the lesser charge of sexual assault earlier this year.

A PASSENGER who drunkenly cried out, “we’re all going to die” as her flight from Spain to the UK landed, appeared in court ahead of a possible jail sentence. Kiran Jagdev, 41, horrified passengers on a Jet2 flight after she had ‘fallen off the wagon’ while in Spain according to the British press. While on board the flight, which had been delayed by three hours, Jagdev allegedly kicked the seat of the young girl sitting in front of her.

‘We’re all going to die’ It is claimed that the 41-year-old caused one passenger to have a panic attack after she yelled as the aircraft came in to land. Five days before the incident Jagdev was arrested for assault and causing actual bodily harm in Tenerife during her short holiday on the island, appearing in court and receiving a

four-month custodial sentence suspended for two years. Jagdev has a history of convictions for drink-related offences dating back to 2010 according to the prosecutor, Leanne Summers. The former personal assistant from Leices-

Jagdev is due to return to court in November.

Legal loophole by Staff Reporter THE Spanish subsidiary of the US social media giant, Facebook, reported net losses of nearly €1 million last year, a 96 per cent rise on 2016. And is now being warned sanctions could be imposed as the European Union ‘loses patience’ with the internet company’s alleged tactics to avoid paying tax by transferring revenues to Ireland. Facebook Spain acts as an intermediary of the group’s Irish branch, Facebook Ireland, providing it with sales and marketing support. The transferring of revenues is a ‘theoretically legal’ corporate activity which is common among global tech companies, with multi-national firms also moving profits to other low-tax jurisdictions such as the Netherlands and Luxembourg. But EU authorities are concerned that some companies are abusing legal loopholes, and have pledged to ensure that ‘digital businesses are taxed in a fair and growth-friendly way in the EU.’ According to the annual accounts filed with the Business Registry, the €957,829 in losses in 2017 is due to higher advertising costs. It shows there was also a notable rise in personal expenses as a result of commissions, bonuses and other employee benefits. As a result of the international pressure with regards to payment of tax, Facebook has reportedly claimed as of 2018, it will begin paying taxes in the country where sales are made, rather than transferring revenues to Ireland where it pays less duty.

BURIAL: Franco’s remains may be buried at Almudena Cathedral.

Franco’s burial plans by Tara Rippin IF the remains of Spanish dictator Francisco Franco are exhumed, his family want him to be buried in the crypt of the Almudena Cathedral in Madrid. The government last month approved the removal of his body from the Valley of the Fallen where he has remained since his death in 1975.

The decision was made to put an end to a situation which the parliament described as an ‘atrocious anomaly.’ The majority of deputies validated the decree which was approved in August during a meeting presided by the socialist Pedro Sanchez to fulfil a promise he made when he took office in June, to comply with the Law of Historical Memory. Franco’s grandchildren, who op-

posed the move, have since put their wishes to officials, requesting that in the event of an exhumation, ‘the coffin must be delivered immediately’ to his family in the Basilica of the controversial monumental complex. This is so that ‘after the funeral honours and corresponding religious services, to give them a Christian burial in the crypt where they have the corresponding right to internment.’

MOST WANTED: Esteban Vacas Garcia arrested by National Police in Spain.

‘Most wanted’ found in cupboard POLICE in Spain have arrested one of Europe’s most wanted fugitives, who had been on the run since 2006, when they found him hiding in a kitchen unit.

Esteban Vacas Garcia, 49, who had been on Europol’s most wanted list for 12 years was discovered hiding in the kitchen of the home where he grew up. He had been on the run since 2006 when he was convicted of raping his partner’s 15-year-old daughter and sentenced to 16 years in prison. Police said a public appeal on Twitter in November 2016 yielded positive results and officers eventually established that he was at an address in Salamanca, in the Castilla y Leon region. In a statement the National Police said: “He was finally found in Salamanca, where he had been living in

the family home where he grew up, only leaving the property on rare occasions and always in the early hours of the morning. “Officers went to the property with a court order. Once there, they found that the fugitive had built a hiding place under the kitchen worktop in which to hide when the police arrived. “He repeatedly raped one of his partner’s daughter’s, who was 15 at the time, taking advantage of his position of authority and using both force and violence,” said the statement. “He also threatened to kill her mother and sister if she told anyone about what had happened.”

Motorway cash find POLICE in Spain were called in to recover €250,000 which had been abandoned on the hard shoulder of a busy Spanish motorway. Guardia Civil officers received the call from an unnamed member of the public who discovered several bank notes scattered across the side of the A-4 motorway at Tembleque in Toledo which connects Madrid to Andalucia. The abandoned euros were safeguarded by the Guardia Civil and taken to a bank to be counted. It later emerged, the collected notes included counterfeit €100 and €50 notes. However, the amount of legal tender gathered by the officers totalled €234,890. The money remains in police custody while they conduct a thorough investigation into where the money came from.

Ex-Catalan leader to launch new party By Joe Gerrard THE former President of Cataluña is set to launch a new pro-independence party this October with

himself in the top job. Carles Puigdemont, who remains in Belgium after leaving Spain following last year’s secession push, has reportedly scheduled the launch of the National

The declaration followed a secession referendum on O c t o b e r 1 t h a t S p a i n ’s Constitutional Court ruled was illegal.

It is set to hold its first party congress in December ahead of local and European elections in May 2019 and claims to have around 50,000 supporters. To n i Morral, a spokesperson for the party, said the party aimed to carry out the mandate given to Catalan lawmakers in the referendum.

Saudi war backing claims WAR CLAIMS: Robles (inset) said the PP had backed the Saudis while in power.

By Joe Gerrard S PA I N ’ S f o r m e r c o n s e r v a t i v e P a r t i d o Popular (PP) government put the country at risk internationally by selling arms to and backing Saudi Arabia over the Yemen conflict, a current minister has claimed. Defence Minister Margarita Robles said the PP left Spain in a ‘very bad’ position over what she alleged was its secret backing of the Saudis in the Yemen Civil War. The support and sale of arms to Riyadh d a m a g e d S p a i n ’s c r e d i b i l i t y, R o b l e s added. The minister ’s comments follow Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez’s defence of the sale of some 400 bombs to the Saudis last month. It also comes as it was revealed that the Saudis are among the leading buyers of Spanish made arms. R o b l e s s a i d t h e P P ’s c u r r e n t l e a d e r Pablo Casado should acknowledge his party’s role in what she claimed was the tainting of Spain’s international credibility with its support for the Saudis. The support had gone against the values of the United Nations (UN), she added. “I see that it seems there were secret

agreements to support wars in some countries. These agreements put Spain at risk,” Robles said. Robles previously suspended the sale of hundreds of bombs to the Saudis over concerns they could be used in the Yemen Civil War. The government later backtracked on the cancellation in an effort to save a €1.8 billion contract to build five corvettes for the Royal Saudi Navy. The state-backed company Navatia is currently building the vessels and around 6,000 jobs were said to be riding on it. PP deputies in Spain’s parliament accused Robles of being a ‘danger ’ to Spaniards due to her actions over the contract. M a r i a J o s e G a r c i a P e l a y o , o f t h e P P, said Robles had been ‘irresponsible’ in her decision making. “You have been discredited as a minister and you have contaminated your government, the country and Navatia.

ECHR hears migration appeal By Joe Gerrard SPAIN’S government has made its case before the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) in Strasbourg

over its treatment of migrants attempting to cross into its African enclaves. A representative of the government told the court there had been no expulsions but that border guards in Ceuta and Melilla had faced violence from migrants attempting to enter. The ECHR is currently hearing an appeal made by the Spanish government after it ruled that Spain had unlawfully made two forced or ‘hot’ returns of migrants in 2017. Rafael Leon, speaking on behalf of the government in Strasbourg, said there was a difference between those migrants fleeing wars such as that in Syria and ‘economic immigration’. Authorities did not have to afford the same protection to economic migrants as they did for refugees of wars and conflicts, Leon told the court. Leon claimed non-admission was not the same thing

arrived in Morocco in March 2013 and stayed in a makeshift camp for nine months. They attempted to cross

over the Melilla border into Spanish territory along with a group of other sub-Saharan migrants on August 13, 2014. The plaintiffs claimed Moroccan Border Police threw stones at them while they scaled several fences between the country and Melilla. Guardia Civil officers arrested them when they arrived in Spain and sent them back over the border. Court documents state they did not have the opportunity to explain themselves and that they were denied access to lawyers, interpreters and medical assistance. The Malian and Ivorian plaintiffs entered Melilla again successfully on December 9 and October 23 respectively. They were then deported and filed a case against Spain at the ECHR over their treatment. The court ruled in their favour in 2017 but the Spanish government appealed. The hearings continue.

Catalan vote - one year on by Joe Gerrard THE one-year anniversary of the Cataluña independence referendum took place last Monday, with pro-secession groups cutting roads across the region to mark the occasion. Protests have also taken place in towns and cities in Cataluña including in Barcelona. Leading pro-independence figures such as President Quim Torra and his predecessor Carles Puigdemont also commented on the anniversary of the vote which Spain’s Constitutional Court ruled was illegal. Protest groups, believed to be leftist independence supporters, began cutting roads leading to petrol stations and oil depots in a bid to cut off strategic points in the region. Streets in Barcelona and Lleida were also occupied. Demonstrators occupied Girona’s high speed railway station, with pictures on social media showing them sat on the rail line which had been covered in Catalan flags. Protesters also stormed a Spanish government office there and lowered Spain’s flag which they replaced with the Catalan ‘estelada’ banner. Rail links between Barcelona, Figueres and Girona were restored at around 10am on Monday. Quim Torra, Cataluña’s pro-independence

Police had stopped voters including former president Puigdemont from voting there last year. Torra said that everything had begun last October 1 and that everything which had happened in the region since went back to the vote. “The lesson of October 1 and its values are what we need as we face the coming weeks and months,” Torra said.

Puigdemont said in a video message that supporters should not stray from the cause of Catalan independence. “The Catalan republic and its international recognition is the only possible way to live in a full democracy,” he said. It comes as a police report on the run up to the referendum made public this week showed officials were making an inventory of regional assets prior to the vote.

Catalan government officials Oriol Junqueras and Josep Lluis Salvado had drawn up a list of some 4,630 public properties around six months before the vote was held. Their value was estimated at more than €19.1 billion. Police claimed Catalan authorities planned to seize those assets in the immediate aftermath of a referendum victory to bolster the new republic’s accounts and to organise its institutional framework. Around 43 per cent of Catalan voters took part in the referendum last year, according to official polling data. Pictures of Spanish riot police attempting to stop voters casting their ballots were broadcast around the world, with 991 people left injured according to Catalan authorities. The referendum was previously ruled out by the Constitutional Court which argued Spanish law did not allow for independence referendums. More than 90 per cent of those who took part backed independence while almost 8 per cent voted against. Many of those opposed to secession refused to take part. Cataluña’s Generalitat declared independence from Spain days later. Madrid responded by placing the region under direct rule and issuing arrest warrants for Puigdemont and other pro-independence politicians, many of which remain imprisoned or in exile abroad.

Banco buyout

May takes axe to tax PRIME MINISTER of the UK, Theresa May, pitched post-Brexit Britain as a ‘low tax and smart regulation’ economy in a speech to business leaders in New York, promising the lowest rate of corporation tax in the G20. The Conservative leader told the Bloomberg Global Business Forum that the UK will be ‘unequivocally probusiness’ when it leaves the European Union. Business leaders have become increasingly frustrated with the UK government over the uncertainty around its Brexit plans, and what they regard as

by Tom Woods insufficient planning for a no-deal Brexit. The acrimonious summit in Salzburg, Austria, saw EU leaders reject Theresa May’s Brexit plan, prompting her to issue a stern riposte in which she said: “I have treated the EU with nothing but respect and the UK expects the same.” But Carolyn Fairbairn, Director General of the Confederation of British Industry, has warned:

“With time slipping away, employers and employees alike need to see constructive dialogue. “Pragmatism must come before politics. Every day lost in rhetoric is lost investment and lost jobs.” But the prime minister sought to provide assurances to businesses and said: “You will access service industries and a financial centre in London that are the envy of the world: the best universities, strong institutions, a sound approach to public finance and a consistent and dependable approach to high standards but intelligent regulation.”

BANKINTER has signed an agreement with Smart Holdco, of Apollo Global Management, to acquire the banking operations of EVO Banco in Spain and its consumer credit affiliate in Ireland, Avantcard. The deal does not include the purchase of EVO Finance, the group’s financial arm in Spain, and it is still pending approval from official bodies and regulators. The parties have agreed not to make the financial terms of the deal public, as the final price will be determined by the customers, transferred balances and excess capital.

New chief BANCO Santander has announced that Andrea Orcel will succeed Jose Antonio Alvarez as its Chief Executive at the beginning of 2019, saying that “he brings a strong track record in managing diverse teams across Europe and the Americas.”

Ride row RUSSIAN REVOLUTION: Mikhail Fridman is considering a Dia takeover. MIKHAIL FRIDMAN, who broke into Spain’s biggest supermarket chain Dia in July 2017 with a 10 per cent stake in the company, has now almost tripled his presence. Having increased his stake to 29 per cent via Letter One Investment, Fridman is on the brink of the 30 per cent threshold after which regulations dictate that he would need to launch an offer for 100 per cent of the company. Fridman controls 15 per cent of Dia in shares, and the remaining 14 per cent through fi-

nancial derivatives. The Russian investor initially paid €320 million for his 10 per cent share of the company, well above its current market value. With Dia’s Chief Executive Ricardo Curras having been replaced by Antonio Coto in August, Dia has announced a new strategic plan for the autumn. This will involve new business models, the remodelling of stores, the development of e-commerce, and an ambitious digital transformation plan.

THOUSANDS of drivers for ride-hailing services U b e r a n d C a b i f y, w a v i n g flags and chanting slogans such as ‘we want to work,’ have marched down Madrid’s central boulevard ahead of plans by the Spanish government to tighten regulation.

New tech on the block FOOTBALL clubs are starting to tap the potential of blockchain technology to deal with longstanding issues such as ticket scalping, fan engagement and the payment of players’ salaries. Considered by many as revolutionary as the internet, a blockchain is a database that is shared across a network of hundreds of computers. Once a record has been added to the chain it is very difficult to tamper with, and the network

makes constant security checks. Blockchains have been used most prominently as the tool behind cryptocurrency Bitcoin, but many other possible uses, from medical records to banking and now sports, are emerging. UEFA used blockchain technology to sell all of the tickets for the Super Cup final in Tallinn in August between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid over mobile phones, preventing the duplication of tickets.

Warning of Brexit ‘impasse’ drags GBP/EUR down Ask the expert Peter Loveday Contact me at euroweekly@currenciesdirect.com

STAYING on top of the latest currency news can help you time your transfers more effectively, so find out what you should be looking out for over the next couple of weeks… Latest currency news The pound has been on a rollercoaster ride over recent weeks, with steady gains against the euro and US dollar giving way to heavy losses due to Brexit anxieties. Overall, the GBP/EUR exchange rate has remained at €1.11 over the previous fortnight. The pairing rose to €1.12, but lost this on a fresh Brexit scare. The situation has been better in the US, with the GBP/USD exchange rate rising from $1.29 to $1.31; as with the GBP/EUR rate, the pound hit a temporary high of $1.32. What’s been happening? Brexit has been in the spotlight over the past couple of weeks, with optimism and pessimism about the UK’s exit from the EU causing pound gains and losses against the euro and US dollar.

GBP/USD: The exchange rate was able to recover some ground across the pond. Hopes (and the pound) initially rose when EU Chief Negotiator Michel Barnier suggested concluding Brexit talks by November. The gloss came off and the pound fell after an EU summit in Salzburg, however, as Theresa May’s ‘Chequers plan’ for Brexit was rejected by EU leaders. The PM cemented the pound’s fall from grace when she announced that Brexit talks had hit ‘an impasse.’ The euro fell against the pound due to slowing Eurozone inflation and continued caution from the

European Central Bank (ECB), before rising after the Salzburg summit. For US dollar traders, the increasingly acrimonious US-China trading relationship hit the headlines with both nations introducing new tariffs against each other. The US dollar fluctuated against the pound as economists speculated about the potential damage done to US consumers and businesses. What do you need to look out for? The next two weeks will have limited pound-influencing news - the next major UK data will be

this Friday’s GDP stats. These might boost demand for pound sterling, should they show a forecast-matching acceleration in economic growth levels. Beyond this, next week’s UK PMI figures could also affect the pound - a services sector slowdown might devalue Sterling. The next high-impact Eurozone data will be Friday’s inflation rate estimates - these could raise euro demand if they show a forecast-matching rise. Further ahead, next Monday’s Eurozone unemployment rate reading might push the euro higher against the pound if it shows a surprise reduction. Upcoming US news includes this Wednesday’s Federal Reserve interest rate decision - Fed officials might boost the dollar if they hike interest rates from 2 per cent to 2.25 per cent. The US dollar could also rise against the pound on next Friday’s jobs market data, which is expected to show a lower unemployment rate.

Politicians are out of touch LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT A RECENT news item on TV showed Mrs May being driven home to ‘rest up’ before the Conservative conference. Her cavalcade of three or four cars was drawing into a quiet leafy lane, which appeared to be somewhere in the English countryside. Leap’s curiosity was tweaked, so I decided to do a little research. Well I can now reveal (all in the public domain of course) that our illustrious leader lives in the village of Sonning, which is situated at the western end of her Maidenhead constituency. This village is described as the ‘most fairy like little nook on the whole river.’ Well doesn’t that all sound quite lovely? There’s more. Mrs May’s neighbours include George Clooney and family. Uri Geller and millionaire Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page. (Who, in the early 60’s I used to book for 30 bob a night!... I digress) It gets better. Mrs May, is apparently a regular visitor to her local butcher and ‘loves to visit some of the other small shops in the village.’ She also likes taking part in ‘community picnics.’ All so wonderfully English. Recently she even took part in, and I quote, ‘a genteel little demo’ against

IDYLLIC: Sonning Lock. ‘a housing development.’ Oh really? I bet they weren’t about to erect a two or three hundred housing development at the bottom of her road and fill it with immigrants! I wonder if Mrs May’s liberal attitudes toward the ever-rising immigrant population would be so enthusiastic if she found her delightful ‘genteel little village’ had suddenly turned into an area, so diverse in its culture, she felt like a stranger in her own country? No, I don’t actually want to go down the immigration path in this piece, but

rather more to demonstrate just how far removed most politicians are from the realities of real life. In their cosseted existence, they are alarmingly out of touch with the pressure and responsibility they have instigated on the local populace with their ’diversity,’ integration stipulations and policies. The only people from diverse cultures most politicians ever come in contact with, are those of the elite and educated variety. Those who emanate from good backgrounds, or higher educa-

tion. Their long-suffering constituents are the ones who have to try and integrate with the millions who don’t hail from such privileged backgrounds. Large numbers have come straight from the streets of lawless and chaotic societies, where mere survival is considered a victory, and who would not have the wherewithal to integrate even if they wanted to. It is simply not fair to expect the British public to accept all these different cultures and be threatened with legal prosecution or even imprisonment merely for voicing their own democratic opinions. This approach is akin to a dictatorship. And don’t think the Labour government would be any better. Given half a chance, the political policies of the left would have the Palestinian flag flying above the Houses of Westminster. Politicians need to lever themselves away from their gentlemen clubs, community picnics and ‘fairy little nooks on the river’ and get down to where the problems really are. Or have we got to wait until the message is only finally rammed home when Teresa May’s ‘quaint little village butchers’ shop’ only serves Halal? Keep the faith Love Leapy. leapylee2002@gmail.com

Advertising Feature IT is a shame that nearly all the expat Brits in Spain are so worried about the dreaded Brexit. Even when I speak to my Spanish friends and business colleagues, Brexit seems to dominate the conversation. The main worry amongst my fellow Brits is how it might affect our pensions, travel, Euro and Sterling values, and on it goes; amongst my Spanish colleagues it seems to be whether Brexit will affect payments of invoices, continued business and whether changes in UK legislation will affect the ability of Spanish businesses and communities when it comes to payment and collection of invoices from UK customers. I wish I knew all the answers - that would certainly make me unique because all our politicians seem to be running around like headless chickens with no real answers or ideas as to what the future holds for the UK and those UK citizens living outside the UK and those EU citizens living within the UK. Well what a turn of events as I write this article... the UK Labour Party conference in Liverpool has voted by 86 per cent to suggest that another referendum to decide on Brexit is wanted, although Mr Corbin would prefer a General Election. I know that many argue that another

Too much Brexit scaremongering Referendum is out of the question, but my own view is that it would be better than another election and obvious in my mind that the decision should now be to stay in the EU. If we were accepted back; perhaps instead of calling us the United Kingdom we should be called Verysorryland! Wi l l i t h a p p e n ? W h o k n o w s , b u t I think the majority of UK citizens would welcome it and I think that most of the EU would be happy to see us back. What a shame that currently it has cost millions, caused untold worry and put a cloud of doom and gloom over all of us trying to enjoy and enrich our lives living out here in ‘Welcoming Spain’ with our friends, both Spanish and UK alike. What I do know is that whatever happens there will be no detrimental effect

on the collection of monies on behalf of Spa nis h bus ine s s e s a nd com m uni t i es, from those customers and owners living or working outside of Spain. There has long been legislation in place within the UK that allows legal proceedings and enforcement to take place subject to judgements obtained either through the Spanish courts or having taken place in the UK courts. It is unfair for anyone to suggest that it will be more difficult or impossible to do so if we leave the EU and regardless of how many of us feel about Brexit there is far too much scaremongering going on. As far as my own Commercial Debt Collection and Community Management Fee collection operations go, it is very much business as usual and let us hope that any changes or agreements before or

on March 19, 2019 happen without any undue concerns. Ideally we should all carry on as usual and ensure that we continue to take all the usual collection steps necessary to make sure we all get paid on time and not fall into the trap of ‘waiting to see what happens later ’ and on a personal level, no matter what - let’s all remain good friends.

FED up with reading about Brexit and all its ups and downs? (Frankly, more downs than ups lately.) Well, spare a thought for Ryanair - and all its ups and downs. This began last September with CEO Michael O’Leary’s “major boo-boo” with the pilots’ holiday schedules - and 2,000 cancelled flights. Since then, despite grudgingly recognising the unions, he’s faced even more strikes and cancellations. Passenger compo came via bouncing cheques. And then to hack us all off, yet another change to Ryanair’s carry-on bag rules! Ryanair said the policy wasn’t targeted at making money but to "improve punctuality and reduce boarding gate delays". However, research suggests Ryanair made £1.7bn from charges for add-ons like checked baggage and selected seats in the last year - i.e. almost a third of Ryanair's profits came from so-called "ancillary revenue". Ages ago, I read somewhere about the three dimensions of strategy: technological development, operational excellence and customer satisfaction. Successful

Flying by the seat of their pants with bounced cheques, strikes

UP OR DOWN: Like ´Marmite´, Ryanair is a company you either love or loathe companies excel in one, do very well in the second and just keep their fingers crossed with the third. Goes without saying which is third in Ryanair's modus operandi! Customers are simply the ways and means to achieving profitable revenue generation. But before we criticise unduly, consider pharmaceutical companies which care little about patients' health; insurance companies which care little for customers' welfare; or fast food companies which care little for diners' tastes and preferences. Basically, Ryanair is a ‘Marmite’ airline – you either love it or loathe it. Some

hate the fact it seems to be constantly itching to “punish” passengers with extra charges, hate the fanfare on landing, and hate the whole experience. Nonetheless, others insist Ryanair is still (despite all those strikes and cancelled flights) one of the largest airlines on the planet by providing customers with exactly what they want: cheap, safe flights. Which category are you in? Not so long ago, I wrote here about airports and all the misery they involve. Seems to me that airports - and airlines – are to peace of mind and relaxation what Trump is to feminism!

LEGALLY SPEAKING

Can they get English television? In our community we have a long-standing problem with our communal television antenna. The Sky satellite dish on our roof is too small to receive English TV channels for the English-speaking owners. Even though our community fees include the rooftop dish, the administration will not provide for English channels. Even worse, they will not allow television technicians access to the roof to maintain the private antennas of some owners. What recourse do the English owners have? R O (Mallorca) You can call an Extraordinary Gener- David Searl al Meeting with the support You and the Law in Spain of one-quarter of the owners or you can wait for the next general meeting, and make sure you have the antenna question on the official Agenda. With any luck you will find that your request comes under Article 17 of the Law of Horizontal Properties, which provides that a vote to provide access to telecommunications requires only a one-third positive vote. The members who vote against it cannot be charged for the installation, however, only those who vote in favour. Also, you want to make sure that your Sky’s reception is legal. Basically, it is not allowed to receive it in Spain.

Send your questions for David Searl through lawyers Ubeda-Retana and Associates in Fuengirola at Ask@lawtaxspain.com, or call 952 667 090.

Cassandra Nash A weekly look - and not entirely impartial reaction to the Spanish political scene

4 - 10 October 2018

Frocky horror show First Delgado denied any relationship with him, then she said there had been ‘professional’ contacts, then she admitted she might have coincided with him at events with other people. Eventually she came out with it and said they met three times. Wily Villarejo recorded one of their conversations at a lunch with super-judge Baltasar Garzon, where she refers to the current Interior minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska, a homosexual who came out years ago, as ‘un maricon.’ Delgado has rightly complained that, like Juan Carlos I, she is another of the commissioner’s eavesdropped victims.

IN the obligatory photo with Trump during the UN General Assembly Pedro Sanchez was taller and immeasurably better looking than the US president. World politics are so unspeakably grim that there should be room for frivolity too, which is why it is also permissible to comment on Begoña Gomez’s €2,300 Jesus del Pozo frock. At least she didn’t go in for Melania’s Morticia look, but Sanchez’s wife looked for all the world as though she’d got caught up in a tablecloth.

Snipers and sitting ducks SPAIN’S politics have degenerated into being caught out in a lie, denying the lie and then explaining what really happened. Neither the Partido Popular nor Ciudadanos can accept how Pedro Sanchez’s Vote of No Confidence evicted Mariano Rajoy from the Moncloa, allowing him to move in almost before they had time to change the beds. So the opposition’s Constitutional parties have taken to sniping and counting the sitting ducks that they wing. The count is two so far, with a third in their sights, Justice Minister Dolores Delgado. Maxim Huerta, who apparently fiddled his tax,

Loyal support TRENDSETTERS: Gomez’s frock certainly made a fashion statement. and Carmen Monton who accepted a Master’s degree she did not need, did the honourable thing and fell on their swords. Which is more than can be said for Partido Popular ministers who clung on like grim death.

Out with it NOW they’ve turned on Justice Minister Dolores

Delgado who apparently had dealings with the sinister ex-police commissioner Jose Manuel Villarejo when she was a High Court public prosecutor. Since Villarejo was imprisoned on remand for money-laundering and criminal activities, the politicians and public figures who courted him in the past clutch their metaphorical skirts about them every time they have to brush past him.

JEAN-CLAUDE JUNCKER, president of the European Commission also belongs to the European Popular Party and coincided with Pablo Casado at the recent party summit in Austria. In response to Juncker’s polite “How are things?” Casadao replied, “I’m fine, but Spain is a disaster. That socialist president...” he tailed off. Clearly Casado has never heard the term Loyal Opposition or if he has, it’s equally clear that he has no intention of practising it.

YOUR STARS FOR NEXT 7 DAYS AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) With so much to think about, will it really be a wonder if something or someone gets left out? It's not just the glitz that's inspiring the action, but certain thankless tasks which are bound to crop up. Whatever the planets get up to, there'll be no stopping Friday and Saturday's enchanting delights.

NEW WORDS: Over one year almost 4,000 additional words are added to the English dictionary.

PISCES (February 20 - March 20)

Trivia from around the world **** Pigeons can be trained to tell the difference between the works of art of Pablo Picasso and Claude Monet. *** A chevrotain is an animal that looks like a miniature deer but has sharp fangs. *** When dragonflies and damselflies mate they make the shape of a heart with their tails. *** The skin of a tiger is striped too, not

just their fur. Their stripe patterns are unique, much like human fingerprints. *** A grizzly bear has a bite strong enough to crush a bowling ball. *** Octopuses have three hearts. *** Wild dolphins call each other by name. *** A dog’s sense of smell is roughly 100,000 times stronger than a human’s although they only have a sixth of the

number of our taste buds. *** Female African buffalo have been found to vote when in herds. They have been observed to show their preference for the herd’s direction of travel by standing up, looking in one direction then lying down. *** Gorillas can catch colds borne by humans as well as other illnesses.

DID YOU KNOW? A new word is added to the English dictionary every two hours. That means that over one year almost 4,000 new words are added. According to the Oxford English dictionary, at least a quarter of a million words in spoken use in the English language are not included in the dictionary, although 47,156 obsolete ones are.

Women’s wit

Famous quote

UK NATIONAL LOTTERY

World of English

I was blessed to have family members who encouraged me to pursue my dreams. Whether it is your parents, or your uncles or your aunts or even the neighbour down the road, it’s important that kids have someone who encourages them to chase their rainbow. Dolly Parton

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” Mark Twain

IRISH LOTTO

Ratite - (of a bird such as the ostrich or emu) unable to fly because of having a flat breastbone, to which no flight muscles are attached.

EL GORDO DE LA PRIMITIVA

LA PRIMITIVA

EURO MILLIONS

You will be ready and waiting for whatever you've organised. Then, without warning, you could have to backtrack or make other plans - you might even encounter some undeserved criticism. But no matter what happens, the weekend will definitely make up for any workaday muddles. Meanwhile, if you're a mixer and mingler, you'll be swept off your feet.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20) As you top up your spirits with some extra ideas, don't be surprised if a couple of items drop out of sight. If you seriously want to minimise niggles and hassles, then ask friends or relatives to lend a hand. It's a great week for togetherness, so ensure that you celebrate in style.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) There will be enough hurly-burly to cope with at work, let alone elsewhere, so don't even think about doing everything singlehandedly. Cooking, hosting and being all things to everyone shouldn't be your version of the perfect week. Teamwork is the way forward, so take the lead and be sure that everyone gets happily involved.

The more you can offload, the happier you'll be. As you attract kindred spirits, you'll be able to look forward to the weekend whirl with family and friends. In the lead-up to the weekend, try to be patient with those who seem to be pulled in other directions. The weekend's full moon sets the scene for a useful exchange of ideas.

Good news should come your way this week. Regardless of how you mark it, you'll be surrounded by caring hearts. Sunday's full moon is one of two

this year associated with journeys, homely connections and good fortune. Despite some workaday hassles your efforts will be well starred.

LEO (July 24 - August 23) Many happy moments will keep you on your toes. With warming wishes in the wind, and a charming touch of luck, don't panic if certain events don't match up to your high standards. Just be Leo-proud that you've got what it takes to make things tick. Unfortunately you can't afford to assume that everything will run to time.

VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) You won’t avoid the occasional mishap, but if you’re tactful on Tuesday and chill out on Wednesday, the lead-up to the weekend’s partying will see you go after whatever you want. Personal and financial discussions will remind you that life is what you make it. Just ride life’s waves with confidence.

LIBRA (September 24 - October 23) This week’s change of planetary powers will allow you to find exactly what you're looking for, especially if you're shopping for bargains. Happily, everything is coming together, so don't let everyday niggles spoil your longterm plans.

SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) On a personal and financial level, wait for further developments before you reach or activate any important decisions. As you draw near the final phase of this year, the best results will come from spending as much time as possible with loved ones, or those who're on your creative wavelength.

SAGITTARIUS (November 23 - December 21) Whatever your plans, or however you intend to enjoy the weekend, there'll be laughter, fun and plenty of action. Refuse to be distracted or upset by any of Monday or Wednesday's twists and turns.

CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 20) This week's potent presence of sombre Saturn in your own sign is a warning not to lose your cool, particularly on Tuesday and Thursday. Otherwise, you can expect a weekend of quality and frivolity.

YOUR PAPER - YOUR VOICE - YOUR OPINION Letters should be emailed to yoursay@euroweeklynews.com or make your comments on our website: www.euroweeklynews.com I USED to be rather dismissive of people who fell for the old bogus gas inspectors’ routine. It was so well-known and so often employed, I thought no-one could possibly be caught out by the scam any more. Then of course my mum and her husband did exactly that. They were on holiday in a rented flat in Riviera (Malaga) when two ‘official looking’ men in boiler suits turned up and claimed they had an appointment to inspect the gas appliances. My mum let them in, then her husband paid a €200 bill they presented, thinking the property owner would reimburse him. Of course, no such appointment had been made and my stepdad was left out of pocket with the only work having been done being the replacement of a rubber hose that costs pennies. So beware the bogus gas inspectors - don’t let them in your house and call the gas company if you have any doubts. And my apologies to everyone I previously dismissedfor falling for the trick - these men are very convincing. R M (name and address supplied)

I WAS surprised to read about the bl asphem y case (EWN issue 1733), where Spain behaves like a poor third world country full of uneducated people. As more than four out of five people in the world will attest, Christianity is a false religion, or nothing more than a superstition. If any real God existed, it would be impossible to insult him since if you did, he would instantly kill you. The fact that Willy Toledo is still alive means either he did not insult this God character or any of his mates, or that God does not exist, and him being impossible, I would go with the latter. There is no evidence any god exists, or that Jesus existed, despi t e what t he uneducat ed and gullible men in frocks of Christianity claim. Even believers can produce no evidence which is why all religions are called Faiths and Beliefs. It is bad enough that we have to put up wi t h t hese m oder n day witch doctors in society without them wanting to prosecute people who do not follow the silly beliefs of their cult. As to Catholics, they have a vile and evil history that any decent person would be ashamed of, and weekly we read of catholic priests r api ng l i t t l e boys ar ound t he world. Michael Hill

Sticky problem IT drives me mad when supermarkets carelessly cover labels with badly placed stickers, which are invariably impossible to take off. Although it happens all the time it seems imported goods seem to suffer the most, with essential cooking instructions or ingredients (yes I do check the ingredients list!) covered over. I appreciate supermarket staff are busy, but just a little more care would, I am sure, be welcomed by many customers. Kevin Johnson

Nick Horne The Rich Pick Freelance correspondent, London, England MORE than 200 years after the great sea battle at Trafalgar on October 21, 1805 Nelson’s pocket watch came up for auction. This watch belonged to the great British hero, Lord Admiral Horatio Nelson, and set the pace of one of history’s greatest naval battles. Now mounted in a gilt-brass carriage clock case, this pocket watch is thought to be the timepiece carried by the Admiral during the Battle of Trafalgar. Chairman of Sotheby’s International Watch Division, Daryn Schnipper said: ‘The perfect timing of the British assault at the Battle of Trafalgar was key in the historic victory of the Royal Navy so to be able to offer for sale the watch that Nelson probably used to establish the timing for this decisive battle, is a real privilege.” The victory at Trafalgar was partly achieved through Nelson’s innovative military tactics in which precise timing played a key part. On the morning of the Battle of Trafalgar, William Beatty - the surgeon aboard Nelson’s flagship HMS Victory, observed how before the battle commenced, the Admiral called upon his lieutenants to synchronise their watches to the time on his own watch. It is therefore quite possible that the tumultuous events of that historic day unfolded to the time kept by this very watch. Nelson possibly acquired this Emery pocket

TICK-TOCK CONDITION: Nelson’s encased pocket watch was recently sold at auction. watch No 1104, or was given it by an admirer, following his triumph at the Battle of the Nile in 1798. Given its extraordinary quality, it is unlikely that he would have been able to purchase such a luxurious item from his own means. One of the 19 relics returned to Nelson’s mistress, Emma, Lady Hamilton, following his death, the watch was inherited by the Admiral’s

brother, William, and subsequently passed to his sole surviving child, Charlotte. Charlotte arranged for the watch to be mounted in its current form as a carriage clock, presumably so it could be better admired and treasured as her most precious possession. This watch is one of a handful of Nelson’s possessions known to have survived and still in

private hands. No 1104, is of the smaller size used by Emery for his Lever watch series. The term Lever refers to the escapement which is the part within the watch movement that allows the watch to run consistently and is one of the most important components in a precision timepiece. This watch is made to the highest standards, this is evident even today. Every part of this watch will have been finished by hand. Indeed this escapement was so difficult to make that its creator, Thomas Mudge, had little time for it and passed on its secrets to Josiah Emery as a maker who might be able to produce it. Emery created this series of watches in conjunction with his struggle to conquer the problem of Longitude. It is a testament of the importance of this series that not only was an example used by Lord Nelson, as his personal watch during a historic battle, but interestingly it has probably been used by you as well. This is because nearly every mechanical watch produced today uses a form of lever escapement. For so many reasons an ‘Important Watch’ sold at Sotheby’s for €365,469 or £322,000.

For battery or for worse Terence Kennedy considers the charge of the night brigade

ASK any gathering of geeks about the right way to charge a phone and you could be in for a long haul. Best to pack a flask. Where a Nokia 3310 might run for a week, these days we’re lucky to get a full day from our smartphones, and LBA is the new syndrome on the block: Low Battery Anxiety. A recent survey says nine out of 10 people suffer from LBA. The rest of us just get on with our lives. Battery specialists do at least agree on a few points. One is that modern batteries no longer suffer the dreaded ‘memory effect’ which plagued our devices some time ago. Charging them partially is fine. Where we used to empty our batteries then fully recharge, today’s rule is different: charge a little, a lot. If you can be bothered. Better to keep pumping a little power into them frequently throughout the day, say the specialists, than longer full sessions, with 45 to 75 per cent charged as the constant target. Though your phone’s socket may then

insist that when you wake up for a pitstop in the wee small hours you should unplug your phone. Letting your battery empty to the point of death is a seriously bad thing to do, as is leaving it empty. But nor should you leave today’s battery 100

per cent charged for long. Experts do however recommend charging your phone to 100 per cent once a month or so, to ‘recalibrate’ the battery, a bit like restarting your computer to clear out any accumulated junk. Most manufacturers claim between 300 and 500 charges of useful life, and indeed Apple once claimed its batteries would only lose 20 per cent of their capacity after 1,000 charges. Yeah, right. And it’s a myth that every time you charge, whether fully or partially, knocks one charge off that 300-to500-charges-lifespan claim. Not so, say those in the know: if you charge your phone 20 per cent in a single session, that only counts as one-fifth of one complete charge. Perhaps life’s just too short for all this complication? Then just plug the damn thing in when you can, and when it finally wears out you’ve got the best excuse to buy a new toy. That’s how things work these days, after all?

Power struggle NEWER phones come with the latest breed of power supply: a fast charger. The jury’s still out on whether only fast-charging your phone is bad for it (largely because of the extra heat generated). If it was, say the enthusiasts, wouldn’t the suppliers of expensive high-end phones also put a traditional charger in the box? Should you only use a phone’s specific charger, meaning lugging a box full of the darn things when a family heads off on holiday? Nope: a charger is a charger is a charger, as long as it’s powerful enough to charge the most demanding phone. Today’s devices will only draw as much power as they need, so pretty much any reputable charger will charge any phone if the plugs and sockets match.

METHODS: Plucking with tweezers and shaving are easy homes methods

Getting to the root of it FACIAL hair care is not exclusive to men. Unruly eyebrows, and fuzzy top lip or chin are just some of the issues every woman has to deal with, and are the least pleasant of all treatments. But there are ways to make it easier by choosing the right method of removal for your preferences, hair type and requirements. Most females are familiar with plucking and own a pair of tweezers. This technique is better for small, in-

dividual areas such as brows but it’s important to be diligent about cleaning them. Leading dermatologists recommend using warm soap and water after every use and storing them in a dry place. Another common method of hair removal is waxing. Using either soft wax which is pulled off with cloth strips, or hard wax that hardens and is pulled off on its own, or pre-packed strips, this technique can be used on the upper lip,

WAXING: Great for removing hair from any part of the face.

cheeks, chin and eyebrows. But it can cause irritation if the skin is sensitive to products used. If not done properly, waxing can result in incomplete extraction of the hair follicle and breakage of the hair shaft, which may become inflamed. If the hair follicle becomes trapped under the skin it can result in ingrown hairs. It’s a myth that shaving makes the hair grow coarser and more densely. It may feel pricklier because it’s been cut,

but it isn’t any thicker. But it is recommended to take precautions for a smoother finish. Shaving in or straight after a shower softens the skin, which is particularly helpful if the hair is coarse or thick. A two-blade razor is preferable as is using a pre-shave oil to prevent razor burn and a hydrating moisturiser afterwards to sooth the skin. Middle Eastern and Asian countries swear by threading which involves us-

ing a thin, doubled cotton thread pulled taut to roll over targeted areas, pulling out hairs. Like tweezers, it works well on smaller areas, but is not as labour intensive. Many salons offer this method and waxing.

Fibromyalgia - diagnosis or dead end? IN medicine (and I’m as guilty of this as many) we often consider getting a diagnosis the most important part. Having a name for what you’re going through, having a medical practitioner recognise that there is a problem can feel like a huge achievement. And everyone who practises medicine understands just how important this name is for the patient. B ut the re a re s om e groups of symptoms that medicine just doesn’t unde rs ta nd ve ry w e ll, a nd these diagnoses are often given to a patient you just don’t know w ha t to do with.

Vital for hormonal balance FOR more than 100 years, iodine has been known as the element that is necessary for thyroid hormones production. However, it is rare to see any further mention of iodine’s other effects in the body, despite the fact that without adequate iodine levels, life itself is not possible. It’s not just responsible for producing hormones for the thyroid, but also the production of all the other hormones of the body.

Seaweed is one of the most abundant sources of iodine.

Dr Garant, of Long Life Clinic in Marbella, said adequate iodine levels are necessary for proper immune system function. “It contains potent antibacterial, anti-parasitic, antiviral, and anticancer properties. Iodine is also effective for

Complicated world of creams MANY leading skin experts claim that terms used by cosmetic firms such as ‘hypoallergenic’ and ‘dermatologistrecommended’ are often just marketing tools. But when it comes to sensitive skin, they do recommend moisturisers without fragrance or allergic ingredients. A study of the 100 bestselling whole body moisturisers found that not only did prices vary by 9,400 per cent, but 95 per cent of the products claiming to be dermatologist-recommended had at least one ingredient that could cause an allergy. Of the hypoallergenic varieties, 83 per cent contained a substance on the allergen list of the North American Contact Dermatitis Group (NACDG). The most common potential allergy-causing ingredients were fragrance mix and a preservative known as paraben mix. So what sort of cream

should people with sensitive skin use. Dermatologists suggest using a moisturiser free of additives, fragrances and perfume. But even this is not 100 per cent reliable. Out of those claiming to be fragrance-free, around 45 per cent had at least one ingredient that was a fragrance cross-reactor and could irritate the skin. One moisturiser labelled ‘natural’ had the highest number of potentially allergenic ingredients from the NACDG list. R e searchers point-

ed out that many of the most affordable moisturisers, such as coconut oil or pure shea butter, have no allergens. While lotions are the most popular moisturisers, dermatologists recommend ointments for skin which is really dry. Lotions contain water, so

Dr Garant added: “Iodine deficiency disorder can result in mental retardation, goiter, increased child and infant mortality, infertility, and socio-economic decline. “And the deficiency disorder is the most common preventable form of mental retardation known.” Primarily found in seawater in very small quantities and solid rocks that form when seawater evaporates, iodine can also be found in sea organisms, such as seaweed. “In fact, seaweed is one of the most abundant sources of iodine because seaweed has the ability to concentrate a large amount of iodine from the ocean water,” he added. There are different forms of iodine. Dr Garant recommends Lugol’s iodine solution is recommended, which is made up of 10 per cent potassium iodide, 5 per cent iodine and 85 per cent distilled water.

It shouldn’t be allowed Mike Senker In my opinion Views of a Grumpy Old Man I JUST spent a very pleasant weekend in Mallorca with a bunch of nutters, as Del Trotter would put it, for a jolly boys outing. I knew it was going to be fun as soon as I met Lilian and Roland at the airport who were off on a cruise to celebrate 60 years of being married. My flight was good; the villa that we had booked was great and the weather fine. So I know what you are thinking - what made me grumpy? Well I’m glad you asked. The answer is football. Football made me grumpy for two reasons. The first was that our lads had entered a five-a- side tourney and, to begin with, they were not taking it as seriously as maybe they should have. Everyone else turned up in their proper kit. We had Primark t-shirts; the boys were all in different makes of shorts with different coloured socks. You get the idea. We reckoned we would get knocked out in the first round, but we didn’t. And we also got through the second round. Now it was turning out to be a bit of a Rocky moment. The underdogs were beating everyone. By now we were buzzing having reached the se-

mi-finals. We only had to beat the Local Police team to get into the finals. We looked over to where they were sitting and saw that 15 minutes before the match they were all sitting down tucking into a lunch of pasta, burgers, wine, beer etc. We thought this was going to be a doddle. As our team was going onto the pitch the police team were still eating their lunch and had put four new players on the pitch that hadn’t even played in the earlier matches. Our ‘manager’ asked one of the organisers if this was allowed and was told that, because of shift changes they allowed it. So basically we were cheated, by the police, out of the finals. The ringers they put in the team were fresh and our boys were cream crackered. Anyway if that’s how you have to win, good luck to you. I don’t actually mean that - it shouldn’t be allowed, full stop. The second football thing that made me grumpy was the West Ham v Chelsea game. How come, in their combined starting line-up, they manged to field only one home grown British player between the two teams? We have to nurture our kids more and stop ruining the game by buying in these spoilt brats. In a squad of 25 only eight have to be home grown players. The glorious game is not what it used to be I’m afraid. mikesenker@gmail.com

When in Rome... IT was lovely to see how proud the foreign residents delegation was to present their new campaign to the press and public together with our mayor, Angeles Muñoz last week. Oti G Diaz-Ambrona heads up the department together with Eduardo Agüero of the Las Chapas offices and Moises Martín from Nueva Andalucia. They and their dedicated teams spend more time and personal interest in our international community than most could imagine and they are always very supportive of our needs. However, right now they want to remind us that we are living in a city that also has many needs, not just ours, and we must get more involved. As a first step we need to understand that if we spend time here and are using the local services we have to sign on the town register - the padron. It doesn’t cost us money to register, it just helps get money into our city from the central government. The facilities of our city are pro rata population and right now we’re double the population using the facilities than those registered and there is not enough to go around. This is largely our fault because many have

Presentation of the new Padron campaign at the Foreign Residents Department.

Marbella Moments by Nicole King decided it’s not in their personal interest to register, although it is a legal and moral obligation to do so. According to the latest figures only 148,000 people are currently registered in our town hall but there is a population of some 250,000 plus.

This means over 100,000 people are not registered but are using the facilities, which is literally draining the city’s resources and making others suffer the consequences. What’s more we tend to complain precisely about the issues that wouldn’t be issues if people registered. In many cases it would seem that folk fear fiscal repercussions or changes in their fiscal status. This is not the case. Nothing changes when you sign on the padron, you don’t have to be a resident either, just someone who is spending time here and using the local services. So how to get this through to the 140

different nationalities that live here? Hopefully with this latest campaign that, created together with a think tank of international locals, has really hit the nail on the head. This new campaign makes it very clear - if we want to have sufficient garbage trucks, police and firemen, health centres, ambulances, doctors, nurses, teachers, schools and other essentials, we all have to register, no more, no less. It’s the least we can do in view of its significance, not just for us but also for those who have welcomed us so warmly to their country, to their city. As they say, when in Rome….

Design ideas for a lighter footprint TERMS like ‘eco-friendly, sustainable and green living’ are commonplace in practically every industry, and their impact on interior design has now become significant. Due to the steady depletion of natural resources, it is becoming more important to adopt a developmental approach that focuses on conservation and sustainability. Reusing, recycling and upcycling are at the forefront in the field of interiors and are being used to ensure a lighter footprint on the planet. And there are several ways homeowners can give their dwellings a touch of green. Furniture made from reclaimed wood, second-hand furniture, usage of vintage pieces and upcycling old heirloom pieces are just some of the ways to ensure sustainability. It can be very satisfying to buy an old piece of second hand furniture for very little money, painting it yourself and using it as a statement piece in your living room. Old window shutters can be transformed into accent wall pieces and old doors can either be converted into tables or even wall shelves. Several alternatives are also available on the market, with manufacturers offering handmade tiles for the floor and using cotton or paper-based wallpapers instead of vinyl and wall cladding with natural jute fabric. Native materials like bamboo, cane, wicker and rattan are enjoying an emergence, according to various design publications. Bamboo not only lends an aesthetic look but is durable and therefore used in furniture, wall panelling and even fabrics.

Storage tips

SAVING seeds for future harvest is becoming more and more popular as we aim to be self-sustaining and eco-friendly. And there are tips for success. Collect seeds from the mature fruit and remove any pulp. Some crops require special treatment, for example ferment tomato seeds to remove the gelatinous cover. Discard damaged, undersized or misshapen seed. Only collect seed from heirloom or open-pollinated varieties. Allow them to air dry at room temperature in a shallow layer for at least a couple of weeks in a dry location. Stir occasionally and inspect them periodically for mould or insects. Once dry, store the seed in a sealed plastic, metal or glass container and fill as much as possible. If you are using plastic resealable bags, squeeze out as much air as possible. Small quantities of seed can be stored in envelopes, but bundle these together and store them as above in a sealed container. La-

bel the seeds with the crop, variety and date. Store them in a cold, dark, dry space. A freezer is ideal as this slows down metabolic and chemical processes, restricts mould and bacteria growth, and slows down or kills many insects.

When to use a harness David THE Dogman columnists@ewnmediagroup.com

I HAVE noticed over the past five years or so that more and more people are using a harness on their pet. If one studies the dog’s skeleton it is very obvious that the harness can do much damage to the spine. A young dog pulling and an owner pulling could cause irrevocable damage to the young spine. A dog harness is a piece of equipment for dogs, similar to harness tack for horses. There are various designs, depending on the type of use. Harnesses can be used on guide dogs, on working dogs that haul a cart or sled, or even in sporting events, such as in the Scandinavian practice of skijoring and pulka. Harnesses are also

SPORTS: Harnesses are used in sports but shouldn’t be used on young dogs.

worn by non-working dogs for training purposes. A harness is often worn in conjunction with a dog collar and used as an alternative for a dog lead attachment. While a collar only encircles the neck, harnesses have a loop that surrounds the torso as well, with connecting straps between them for added reinforcement and control. The design allows for distribution of force which may prevent choking; a dog will also not be able to slip free from a harness as they may easily do from a standard collar. Assistance dogs will sometimes wear a harness if part of their job requires guiding or

providing physical mobility for a disabled person. Generally, the harness design includes a built-in handle for the person to grip; this type also offers reinforcement to the handler as well as a padded breast plate for the dog’s comfort. Overall

sturdiness of the design depends on whether the dog is gently leading, acting as a brace, or physically pulling a wheelchair. Sled dog harnesses vary depending on the purpose of the animal; the two basic duties of

a sled dog is hauling freight or some sort or racing. Harnesses come in three main types: the freight harness, the H-back harness, and the X-back harness. Dog sports are growing and more types of harnesses are being developed, including

the Y-back style and guard or distance harness. The freight harness is often an H-back harness that forms a ladder-like effect across the back with a wide chest band and sometimes extra padding. The construction distributes the weight across the chest and over the shoulders because of the broadness of the area; is designed to help the dog pull heavy weights efficiently. They may also feature a spreader bar behind the wheel dogs and before the sled or cart. Racing harnesses are often lighter and shorter than freight harnesses. The X-back harness gets its name from the straps that form an ‘X’ across the back of the dog. It is used more frequently than the Hback, with short versions that ride farther forward on the dog’s body recently gaining in popularity.

Shaggy dog story - can you help find the hero WHEN you are away for long holidays your pets can do better at home New members sometimes join HousesitMatch when they are planning an extended holiday to a destination they

have long planned to visit. To make the most of their holiday they book a long trip. The question that arises most often is what should they do with their pets? Our feedback from active members is that the pets are often more comfortable and relaxed if they can stay in their own environment with sitters as company, where the environment and routines are

familiar. It helps them feel safer. The water spaniel shown in the picture is still a puppy, so the owners are looking for dog lovers to stay with him while they take their trip of a lifetime to the Far East. Do you know anyone who could help this puppy? How we work HousesitMatch is a housesitting network where new

members register online. We ID check everyone to ensure we know who you are, and in addition sitters are police checked. We charge for membership to ensure that there is a commitment from both parties and that we can afford to manage our network online professionally. Our latest review on Trustpilot HousesitMatch has helped

Do you need a house- or pet-sitter? Get in touch. House-sitting can be a win-win for both parties, free house- and pet-sitting, and the experienced and checked sitters get free accommodation! Register as either house-sitter or homeowner with a 20 per cent discount using coupon code P2020 - an exclusive offer for readers. To find a house pet-sitter go to www.HousesitMatch.com

MOTORING FACT

MOTORING www.euroweeklynews.com

Chrysler was the first company to put power steering or ‘hydraguide’ into a production model in 1951, and it was first seen on the Imperial and Custom Imperial models. KEY CHANGE: The nature of car purchasing and ownership is evolving.

Salesmen being run off the road THE growing dominance of finance deals, leasing and subscription services could well sound the death knell for car ownership. A huge 88 per cent of all new cars were bought on finance in Britain last year, and 30 per cent of all used cars. And a detailed study by car marketplace site Auto Trader concluded that car ownership will completely die out within the next

decade. It believes that ‘usership’ is the way forward for the industry instead of ownership, with 40 per cent of all used car sales expected to be bought through finance in the next five years alone. Almost every single Briton surveyed, out of 13,500 consumers who bought a car on finance believed that they ‘owned’ the motor. This alone reflects the shift in attitudes in buying a car, and over two thirds think that Brexit will increase the cost of buying one outright. The preference for usership over ownership represents one of the most dramatic shifts in the retail landscape, with new types of flexible aftersales, logistics and infrastructure services. Mark Forton, Volkswagen Director of Mobility Services, said: “The next step of this is customers wanting use of a vehicle for a shorter period of time, or use of multiple vehicles, much like a subscription service. “Therefore the need for the retailers to be a part of this is essential as it will provide access to customers in the locations that are easy for them.”

MOTORING Classic Car Club of Andalucía

www.euroweeklynews.com

4 - 10 October 2018

CCCA off to Ronda HE CCCA has its monthly classic car run on Saturday and they’re off for an away weekend of fun and frivolity. Not to mention enjoying some amazing, beautiful scenery and a drive that will be really memorable. The run will start on Saturday morning from the Posada de Ronda hotel which is about seven kilometres west of Ronda on the Sevilla road. Rooms are booked for many members on the Friday night, although there are still some available if wanted. The run is being organised by CCCA member Richard Masters, assisted by his wife, Nicky, who will be entertaining many members with a night out in Ronda on the Friday. Let’s hope they make it back in time for the 11am Saturday start! The route will take in some stunning scenery and great driving roads around the areas of

T

Grazalama and the lakes around Zahara. The event will finish up with a good lunch at the Posada de Ronda afterwards. We will have more about the event itself in the next issue. Thinking of buying a classic? They say that, as spring comes on, a young man’s fancy turns to, well, that obviously, but also to sports cars. Well, I can assure you that at any time of year, most older men will also be turning their attentions to acquiring a fun vehicle, maybe a sports car or, especially when retired and living ‘the life’ on the Costa del Sol, quite possibly a classic car. Many people have joined the CCC of A because of the amazing social life that spins off from Club activities as well as the monthly dinners, parties and the many runs the club organises which allows people to see some beautiful parts of Spain generally and Andalucia

in particular. Often these are people that have not previously had an interest in cars specifically, but like the idea of classic car ownership for the reasons stated. But how does one go about getting such a classic car and what does it cost? In my experience, many retired people living here look back on their lives and decide to buy cars that they may have lusted after, but couldn’t afford, when they were younger. The people, that is, not the cars, although, as I write, I think this applies to both! With that in mind, how does one acquire that much loved vehicle? Stating the obvious, the local classifieds is a place to start but that can ‘end in tears’ sometimes. The golden rule when buying from classifieds is to have a professional inspection. The websites of the local classic car clubs can often produce good results, especially if cars are being sold from

deceased estates or by some giving up ‘the good life’ to return to their home country. Although it may involve a few visits back to Blighty, classic car auctions are plentiful and, generally, run by professional and reputable bodies. They are usually well publicised in advance giving potential buyers plenty of time to ‘study form.’ Cars can be viewed via the auction catalogue ‘online’ and most auctioneers will provide a technical inspection and report if asked. That way, a visit to the auction itself may not be necessary. One simply registers to bid a day or so beforehand and then a telephone bid can be arranged. The golden rule here - set a limit you are willing to pay and DO NOT go any higher! I know, I’ve been carried away myself before now when buying at a classic car auction. I once went to Baron’s auction in Surrey to buy a £3,000 Tri-

umph GT6 and came home, not only with the little Triumph, but also a £40,000 Dodge Viper V10 that was ‘car of the show’ and sat on a plinth in the auction room as I waited for the Triumph. It was like an ‘out of body’ experience as I watched my hand go up bidding for a car I’d not even looked at! Luckily for me it worked out well in the end! Buying classics this way is a good idea and usually a sound investment. Until around mid2015 there was a lot of heavy investment in classic cars from ‘the big money’ which was driving up prices at an alarming rate. That seems to have subdued now and, in some cases, there has been an ‘adjustment’ of values which is no bad thing. Classics will continue to do well and be a sound investment, but if one has just one classic, has plenty of fun and enjoyment, the car probably won’t make any fortunes short term but it should certainly at

least pay for itself and its maintenance and, likely as not, long term will pay dividends. If readers are interested perhaps I can go into this in more detail in future articles? Lastly, my buying tip for an inexpensive classic that will give good results? Any 1980’s or 1990’s Mercedes Sports or convertible. They are really cheap at this time and are set to soar as they follow their ancestors from the 1960’s and 1970’s. Expect to pay around £10,000 - £20,000 for a good one. That’s it for now, more next time!

COLLECTABLE: A 1988 Mercedes 560 SL convertible.

Further information on Classic Car Club of Andalucia events can be found on the Club’s website www.cccandalucia.com. Membership of this vibrant club is open to anyone owning a genuine classic car here in Spain. Saca tu coche clásico del garaje y diviértete con el.

RYDING HIGH: Team Europe celebrates another famous win.

Europe regains Ryder Cup EUROPE held off a final day fightback from Team USA to regain the Ryder Cup with an emphatic 17.5-10.5 triumph after a tense and dramatic afternoon at Le Golf National. Their overnight four-point lead was whittled down to just one when Jim Furyk’s side won three of the top five matches, but Thomas Bjorn’s close-knit Europe took control of the middle order of the singles draw. Victory was secured in fitting fashion when Francesco Molinari became the first European ever to win five points out of five. Added to that feat, Sergio Garcia beat Rickie Fowler to surpass Nick Faldo as the leading points scorer in Ryder Cup history, while Ian Poulter lived up to his reputation as ‘The Post-

man’ as he delivered another point by defeating world number one Dustin Johnson. With Henrik Stenson and Garcia both on the verge of adding further points, Molinari won his record-breaking match when the hapless Phil Mickelson shanked his tee shot to the 16th into the water and shook hands with the Open champion on the tee. Justin Thomas won his fourth point of the week in the opening singles when Rory McIlroy found a bunker and water on the final hole, forcing him to concede defeat after a thrilling battle. But Paul Casey snatched a valuable half against Brooks Koepka, and Jon Rahm got the better of Tiger Woods to leave the American without a point over the whole competition.

Torrequebrada Golf Resort CostaLessGolf Weekly News with

Ron Garrood TORREQUEBRADA golf course, in Benalmádena on the Costa del Sol, opened in 1976. The course was designed by José ‘Pepe’ Gancedo, who has since designed many golf courses in Spain, the rest of Europe and in the States. Torrequebrada was host to the 53rd Spanish Open Championship in 1979. A unique feature of this course is the variety of fairway design, which makes it important to choose the right club for each shot. The more intrepid player can test his skill on every hole, whatever his handicap. It would not be correct to draw attention to any particular hole as they are all part of the combined challenge presented by the landscape and nature itself. The greens are notable for their size and speed. Strategically placed lakes and bunkers add to the course’s interest. The clubhouse, with its panoramic views and privileged situation overlooking the 18th fairway, provides all the modern facilities one expects from a golf club of this category, terraces, reception rooms for private functions, dressing rooms, barrestaurant, driving range and pro-shop.
