THANK 9 - 15 April 2020
CORONAVIRUS has turned the world upside down. In Spain, as around the globe, governments and citizens are fighting a battle of the like they have never had to face before. This is an unprecedented public health, and also economic, crisis, which is having a major impact on all of our lives. One of the few positives to come out of these dark times is that regional, political and individual differences have been put to one side as the nation and its people unite and pull together for the common good. Even at such a significant time as Easter, where loved ones would normally be coming together, but are willing to put celebrations aside and enjoy the time in the best way possible, safe in the knowledge that we are doing it for the benefit of good health and for the safety of our friends and family. There is no pre-established rulebook on the best way to defeat Covid-19, and the Euro Weekly News wants to thank the President of the Spanish government Señor Pedro Sanchez for everything he and his administration are doing to keep up us all safe. We appreciate that his priority is public health and taking the right steps to enable Spain to tackle this emergency situation and move forward again as soon as possible. EWN also wants to thank each and every person in Spain for playing their own vital role in this completely changed society. By staying indoors and re-

Sole service ON Sunday Pope Francis was the sole celebrant at Palm Sunday Mass in St Peter’s Basilica at the commencement of Holy Week, and the service took place without a congregation, which the Vatican press office said was a historical first for the Roman Catholic Church. The mass and Pope Francis was live streamed from the nearempty basilica. Only the Pope’s aides and a handful of invited religious guests were present. The invitees sat in

The male choir and organist also practised social distancing. In his homily, the Pope asked worshipers to devote themselves to service in this time of Covid-19. “May we reach out to those who are suffering and those most in need. May we not be concerned about what we lack, but what good we can do for others,” said the Pope.

DIGITAL EASTER DIFFERENT: Spaniards cannot get out onto the streets to celebrate Easter the way they want to, but they can celebrate it online.
WITH everything going on in the coronavirus-ravaged world at present, Easter has got somewhat pushed to one side this year. All the normal excitement about the spectacular ‘Semana Santa’ processions through the streets of towns and cities across Spain is absent because they cannot happen, and there are no hordes of beach-hungry city dwellers heading for the coast for the long weekend. But the State of Alarm enforced confinement does not mean Spain is not celebrating Easter at all. It’s just that this year it is different: it is more of a digital version.
In many areas there are various initiatives to bring people together online at this important time of year. Local TV stations are broadcasting processions from previous years at the times this year’s events had been scheduled to take place. And in many areas the religious services are being streamed live, albeit services held behind churches’ and cathedrals’ locked doors. Coronavirus has stopped Spain from going out onto the street to celebrate Easter the way it does so spectacularly and uniquely. But the crisis has not done away with the spirit of Easter.
RELIGIOUS CELEBRATIONS ALTHOUGH people in Spain will not be able to celebrate Semana Santa in their traditional manner, this is not to say they will lose their Easter spirit! Some neighbourhoods have resorted to their most social gatherings – balconies. This year religious thrones and processions have had to be injected with a little originality and creativity. A group of flats in Cordoba played the traditional procession music as they paraded a makeshift throne across the flats over a washing-up line. Residents will have to conform to watching old processions on their TV and take part in the broadcasted mass from the comfort of their homes. Other devout Spaniards have shown their support by hanging tapestries from their balconies. These banners depict religious imagery of the saints and virgins who will not be paraded on the streets this Easter.

The Masked Monarch Highway birth KING FELIPE VI visited an operational centre in the Madrid area that is coordinating the work of Spain’s armed forces during the State of Alarm. The monarch went to the Retamares base in Pozuelo de Alarcón, and he donned army clothing in addition to wearing a protective mask and gloves. The Armed Forces have named Operation Balmis as their deployment to various parts of Spain to reinforce the home confinement rules. Francisco Javier de Balmis y Berenguer was a military doctor born in Alicante in 1753, who then studied medicine locally. He was famous for bringing the smallpox vaccine to the Spanish empire at the start of the 19th century, and is credited in some quarters as saving millions of lives.

Digital dog show LOCAL charity Last Chance animal Rescue have come up with a novel idea to raise much-needed funds. Even during the lockdown, they have had no choice but to take on some desperate cases, and without being able to get adopted dogs and pups to their owners, the purse is empty. The dogs in their care still need feeding and medical attention, one has cancer and limited time and they want to make his last days or weeks as comfortable as possible. So, why not enter your pet into their Online Dog Show!

WITH confinement extended until at least April 26, allowing mobility would clearly be a step backward in this fight against Coronovirus. It is necessary to study the measures we need to take and how to implement them. However, what is clear is that when you go out, those who can do so should wear masks, reduce contact as little as possible and keep the suggested distance from each other. This has been indicated by the person in charge of the Centro de Coordinación de Emergencias y Alertas Sani-

ON April 2, two Guardia Civil officers from Lugo assisted a woman who had gone into labour when she was travelling with her husband on the AG-64 close to Xermade. At around 7.30pm, the Guardia Civil observed the presence of a car parked on the side of the road and stopped to check if everything was okay and enquire about their parking. When the officers approached the vehicle, the partner of the woman was ‘visibly nervous’ and explained that his wife was inside the vehicle about to give birth. When informed, the officers immediately went over to help the mother who at this moment already had the baby in her arms. An ambulance arrived at the scene and immediately took care of the mother as they transported her to a medical centre. The officers escorted both the ambulance and the father’s vehicle as they went towards the hospital. The Guardia Civil has informed that the mother and daughter were taken to the Arquictecto Marquide de Ferrol Hospital in A Coruña and are both in good health. The Guardia Civil wanted to give thanks to the little Lara for ‘the smile’ which she provoked on the faces of public service officers, medical staff and more during these tough days.

Mounting opposition to Maro project WITHIN five days 1,200 people signed a petition challenging plans to reactivate development plans for Maro. The Plataforma Otra Nerja y Maro es Posible (Another Nerja and Maro is Possible), which is organising the petition, was constituted in 2017 to coordinate local opposition to the project which envisaged building 680 luxury properties and a golf course in Vega de Tetuan in Maro. The area is classed both as ‘specially protected agricultural land’ and as an Asset of Cultural Interest (BIC). Now, three years later, the Plataforma has picked up where it left off three years ago following recent and official confirmation of the agreement between Nerja Town Hall and Salsa (Sociedad Azucarera Larios SA). If allowed to go ahead, the development would ‘irreversibly change’ a zone of the greatest scenic and cultural value on the Malaga coast, the Plataforma maintained.

Stabbed over unpaid debt A VELEZ-MALAGA man answering insistent rings at his door was jumped on by three youths who stabbed him. They were there to collect an unpaid debt, revealed the National Police who were sent to a property in the north of the town after a neighbour contacted their 091 number, explaining a man had been stabbed. Three young men, presumably the injured man’s attackers, had fled when he arrived, the neighbour said. After identifying the alleged attackers, police located the man believed to have carried out the stabbing at a health centre where medics were dressing his wounds. Meanwhile, the injured man who had been stabbed in the leg and an arm, was admitted to hospital. The two other men were arrested the following day and initial enquiries suggest that the victim owed money to one of his aggressors. All three now face charges of causing bodily harm.
Almuñecar market demolition ‘is no whim’ says mayor ALMUÑECAR mayor Trinidad Herrera rebutted Opposition criticism for or-
dering the demolition of the town’s covered municipal market. “I want to make it quite clear that pulling down the market isn’t ‘a whim’ of the mayor or the local government,” Herrera declared. “We have reports from town hall technicians warning of the risk of imminent collapse unless we take action.” The mayor went on to stress that the town hall’s
experts would not take responsibility if demolition fails to go ahead. Regarding an official complaint lodged by the market’s stallholders, Herrera said they were free to do whatever they wished. “But my conscience is clear in the sense that if a catastrophe can be avoided, I stand by the decisions that we have taken from a stance of absolute responsibility,” she declared.

PRESSING TIMES FOR THE OP MOURNING a potential casualty in this time of crisis. In these difficult times of crisis and sacrifice we have seen many companies and businesses in difficulty and we were very sorry to see an appeal has been issued by the Olive Press for financial support from its readers so that it doesn’t have to close. There is a German word ‘Schadenfreude’ which refers to pleasure derived from someone else’s misfortune and readers might be forgiven in thinking this is how we at Euro Weekly News might feel, but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Of course, as businesses each thinks (although we know) that it is better than the other but at the end of the day, if you value a free press then we want to see all in our sector successful and we certainly don’t wish to see those working at Olive Press losing their jobs or being placed in difficult fi-

With the Tokyo Olympics on hold, Craviotto, 35, asked if he could return to his career in the National Police force, and is now carrying out duties in Gijón, commending members of the public for showing “a good degree of responsibility with the confinement.” Speaking to El Comercio, Craviotto said he is very comfortable doing his job as a police officer and thanked his colleagues for the warm welcome. “I can’t ask for more,” he said.

CORONAVIRUS patients are beginning to leave the ICU and return to the normal wards. Each patient is a small victory for the medical staff and a reminder to keep up morale. An extraordinary case is 23-year-old Adrian. This young man arrived at the Costa del Sol Hospital, Marbella on March 18 and he spent 10 days in the ICU. He left on Sunday 29 and his mother, Isabel, admitted “She was very scared” for her son. Adrian is without voice because of the inflammation caused by the ventilator as he is not fully recovered. Isabel recalls crying heavily when medical professionals video-called her to show her son no longer needed a ventilator to breathe. He was finally able to take a clear breath and so did she.

Eggscellent EASTER is coming, and although the majority of us will be stuck in the house during isolation, it can give us hours of fun to enjoy with the children. Painting Easter eggs is fun and easy to do, lots of people buy egg decorating kits, but you can make beautiful Easter eggs with supplies out of your own cupboard. Once your eggs are hard-boiled place them in cups filled halfway with hot water, add 1 teaspoon of vinegar and one teaspoon of food colouring. Now simply place the egg in the colour you want, leave it for five minutes and when you lift it out you will have a perfectly dyed egg. Before you start dipping, there are lots of ways to create different patterns
on your eggs. Using a white crayon, write a message or draw a design on the egg before you dip it - when it comes out of the dye the wax will remain white, highlighting the design. Or you can create stripey designs on your egg by placing rubber bands or tape around your egg before dipping, when you raise it from the dye and remove the bands your egg will have stripes where the bands were. Once you've lifted your eggs from the dye, place them gently in the empty egg carton to dry. Once they're dry you can keep the fun going by hiding them around the house for a hunt.

Family time ENFORCED family time may seem a little daunting but by putting it to good use you may manage to encourage some life values within your children you may not have previously had the time to. Take time to do something like cooking, colouring or even listening to music with your children. These are fantastic things to be doing together and will go such a long way. Art can be so powerful because it makes you escape for a little bit, it puts you in that mindfulness zone, and time passes so quickly. As adults, if we are doing this ourselves, then we are showing good habits to our children. One really positive thing that will come out of this is that young people can become more independent in choosing when and what to learn. If we create children that love learning, they will automatically find new things to occupy their time with and to be inspired by. What is extremely important is to carve out family time. Why not set a time in the day when everyone’s devices go away, try playing a board game or watching something appropriate on Netflix together.

Double Taxation Agreement THE Government of Gibraltar has entered into a double tax agree ment (DTA) with the United King dom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and is looking to extend such agreements further with other coun tries. DTAs are treaties between two or more countries to avoid internation al double taxation of income and property. The main purpose of any DTA is to divide the right of taxation between the contracting countries, to avoid differences, to ensure taxpayers’ equal rights and security, and to pre vent evasion of taxation.
By John Smith In this case, the DTA will remove barriers to international trade and investment and provide a clear and fair framework for taxing interna tional crossborder business. Global organisations such as the OECD and G20 continue to hold tax transparency, administrative coop eration and good governance as im portant agendas in the field of taxa tion and vital characteristics of any mainstream tax jurisdiction. As Spain in particular has in the past accused Gibraltar of being a tax haven this is an example of the sig
nificant progress made in the last 12 months in repositioning Gibraltar’s international tax presence. A government release declared that ‘the strategy to cement our po sition as a credible finance centre avoiding both the pitfalls identified with blacklisted jurisdictions in addi tion to the associated consequences and sanctions is continuing. ‘Resources have already been de ployed for the necessary preliminary studies on how best to expand Gibraltar’s network of treaty part ners in the future; something that this agreement has definitively paved the way for.’
IN an attempt to ensure that all of its suppliers are not financially af fected by the State of Alarm, su permarket chain Mercadona has obtained credit lines of €2 billion (€500 million from each of four main Spanish banks). Although income for most su permarkets is up during the cur rent crisis, Mercadona wants to pay its suppliers immediately, rather than in the normal 40 or so days following receipt of invoices. The banks are content as they know that Mercadona sales will come in to underwrite the loans.
LEGALLY SPEAKING Can they evict? Until last September I was the president of my community. I tried very hard to get the owners and holidaymakers to adhere to the community rules. The owner of the house opposite was asked on many occasions to remove articles from his front veranda balustrades. Be cause of his ongoing harassment, I gave up the president position. Now, months later, this owner has decided to whistle marching songs and recently began to give me the Fascist salute when we go out or are in our garden. This is very annoying and upsetting. Of course he only does this when nobody is around. What can we do to get this person to cease these actions? R B (Costa Blanca) Clearly, your neigh bour feels you were YOU AND THE overzealous in LAW IN SPAIN your efforts to en force the communi ty rules. However, if he has not threatened you with phys ical violence or directly insulted you, there is little you can do legally. The most effective way to deal with this type of behaviour is to ignore it. This will take some effort on your part. If he decides to make himself even more unpleasant, you may then go to the police.

Is it safe to use Zoom? WITH the increased number of people working from home around the world due to the coronavirus Covid-19 crisis, many have flocked to use the videoconferencing app Zoom, but there is some disquiet over its security. New York’s Attorney General has taken the somewhat unusual step of writing to the organisation voicing concerns over its ability to cope with security following the rise in users. So popular has it become that is now the number two app of its

POPULAR APP: The first digital cabinet meeting with Zoom.
Opening their own stores TWO delivery companies Deliveroo and Glovo in Spain are opening their own stores and then offering to supply a small range of groceries and other shopping to people’s homes in an estimated 30 minutes.
The closure of so many restaurants due to coronavirus has meant that their traditional takeaway food service has declined as many operations have literally closed their doors so they have
looked elsewhere to generate business. They also deliver for some supermarkets but direct deals with manufacturers increases their profit margins.
type in the UK and recently Prime Minister Boris Johnson tweeted a picture of himself chairing a Cabi net meeting using Zoom. It does however have a record of security problems and appears to take some time to correct er rors when they occur. Apps such as WhatsApp offer endtoend encryption which makes communication secure but Zoom doesn’t do this and there are allegations that sometimes customers can see each other’s private data. An online news publication The Intercept says that it has been told by Zoom that “Currently, it is not possible to enable E2E encryption for Zoom video meetings” which according to the news publisher means that it can access the video and audio of meetings. Whilst most of us don’t really care about people accessing our innocent chats, if you are the Prime Minister and a foreign com pany can see and hear what you are saying, it might be a little wor rying.

BUSINESS EXTRA Lower charges SPANISH banks are encouraging people to use cash machines by reducing charges for withdrawals from competitors’ machines and by increasing the maximum daily withdrawal from €600 to €1,000. Also customers are asked to use online banking wherever possible.
Delivery firms INTERNATIONAL accountants Deloitte say that Spanish firms which deliver goods for online services were not prepared for the huge rise in business due to the lockdown but are coping and will keep much of the business when the crisis is over.
Another loss THE always emblematic Cath Kidston Company which sold vintage inspired clothes and crockery has been suffering financially for some time, having to close its small Spanish store and now the coronavirus lockdown means that it is calling in Administrators.

LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT IF this week’s missive runs the risk of getting yet another accusation of racism f ro m o u r, ( n o n - C h i n e s e speaking!), Hong Kong ‘journalist’ - so be it. As it happens my gripe is not with the Chinese people themselves - the vast majority of whom have been utterly brainwashed for years - but with their bunch of dictatorial communist leaders. Savage despots, that not only rule them all with a rod of iron, but are also prepared to go to any lengths to prove that their method of government is the correct one. These Red Party leaders are in fact at this very moment pestering the world health authorities to refrain from calling this latest virus the ‘Chinese Virus.’ To add insult to injury, and gauging the rest of the world’s gullibility by their own downtrodden citizen’s standards, they are actually trying to

blame others for this vicious pandemic of death - which undoubtedly began in the Wuhan area of their country. Whether it was from one of their despicable, cruel and utterly repulsive ‘live animal markets,’ or leaked from some experimental laboratory, is
irrelevant. The postings on social media, which they try so hard to suppress, has more than proved to the free thinking world that they knew about this virus long before the knowledge was finally made public. We know of at least two young medical practitioner
whistle blowers, which were suppressed and later ‘conveniently’ died of the virus. They also must have known more than the rest of us when they hastily erected two hospitals containing 4,000 beds all those weeks ago. No, I’m afraid these arrogant officials would rather put millions of lives in jeopardy than lose face, and have now proved to the world just how dangerous they actually are. Not only have they had the gall to try and shift the blame onto others, but have set their zombie like workforce the task of manufacturing millions of protective and medical testing apparatus - to actually sell to people suffering and dying from the very malady they have inflicted. Plus, to make matters even worse, the first huge batches of these materials are actually of dubious quality. Bit like most of the rubbish they have been foisting on us through the utter-
ly substandard tacky shops, that have sprouted like bean shoots over the last few years. Well, when it’s all over, I for one would like to see them issue an acceptance of responsibility along with an unmitigated public apology. Right now, once they’ve got it right, they are morally obliged to manufacture and export vast quantities of medical equipment, free to the world they have blighted with their horrifying virus. It has just come to my attention they have, almost beyond belief, actually reopened a number of the live animal market. You really couldn’t make it up. No, the communist leaders of the Chinese nation have a lot to answer for and in the future must be brought firmly to book by the free thinking world. Keep the faith Love Leapy leapylee2002@gmail.com.

Advertising Feature I WAS driving to work last week, and I looked around me to see nothing but a ghost town in front of me. I got to wondering is this what the world wars would have been like, isolation. Rations, lockdowns, strict guidelines of how to conduct your life, a complete sense of loneliness ? That evening I called my 97-year-old Nana who has witnessed most things during her time. This is what she told me: “I have never been through or endured anything like this in my lifetime. I am 97 years old; I live alone, I am in isolation as I am high risk, I am not allowed to go outside or let anyone into my apartment, I have limited funds and resources. I normally rely on my family and care workers to get my shopping, call around and help with my exercise, prepare my meals, help with cleaning and washing. Now all of this interaction has been stripped back to the bare minimum. I used to go down to the recreation room to socialise with the tenants here most evenings, in fact it was one of the things that kept me sane, having that human contact. It was something to look for-
Isolation during
lockdown
ward to. Recently someone I have been friends with for over 50 years has been taken into hospital with, what is, I believe to be, this virus. I cannot tell you how frightened and alone I feel. I worry about dying. Who will find me? Who will even know I have gone? Will anybody be able to attend my funeral? Can I be cremated? If I wasn’t doolally before all this began, I certainly will be after it has all passed.” I reassured my 97-year-old Nana that this is hard for everyone, but that isolation is for the best and working for Golden Leaves I was able to ease her concerns, by putting contingences in to place for finding her, one call to us and everything is taken care of as per her wishes, a small group of family members could attend her service and as she met the cri-
teria she could indeed be cremated. Her worry for her family burden and financial cost taken care of there and then by putting a plan into place. I went on to say: “Nana, you need to keep in isolation to keep safe so you can reach that 100-year mark and get your letter from the Queen.” She laughed and told me that she had been putting off making her funeral arrangements for years as she believed it to be bad luck. “Now for my own peace of mind I need to sort out my affairs. Please can we sort out my funeral arrangements? Just so that if anything does happen, I will know that you do not have to worry about finding the money, especially, in the current climate and I will know that I will be taken
MY GRANDPARENTS: Rhondda Quantrill and Kenneth Quantrill (deceased). care of properly.” Having a conversation like that with my own Grandmother really brought home to me just how isolated people are from the world. They now, more than ever, have a genuine fear of passing away and not having all their affairs in order and uncertainty of what will happen to them during this State of Alarm. It is so important to take that pressure and financial burden away from your family who, at this time, cannot even get to you or your remaining partner/spouse to support them if they are in a different country.

Reality of Bipolar MS BIPOLAR UP AND DOWN WITH BALANCE UNEDITED WHO I am and what I have are two very different things. Who I am is a survivor. I battle this ‘something’ and strongly, I battle something that lives in me and pretends to be me in moments of vulnerability. It can creep up on me at any time, I can be having dinner with the family, laughing and joking and suddenly this dark cloud comes over me. I can be enjoying a film and all of a sudden I can’t watch it any more. I can be in a restaurant having dinner and have the sudden urge that I need to get out of there and go back home. But the truth that I realised which keeps me going is that it DOES NOT make me who I am. Sure, it tries to claim itself to be me every now and again, trying to pull me further down in to the depths of despair. But over time, that only did one thing - it began to reveal itself for what it was. I see it now. A shapeless dark shadow ‘thing’ that dwells in a place I hold sacred trying to take over, MY HAPPINNESS. I asked myself once, who am I if I cannot trust my own mind…? Who is the person asking this question, in this moment, if not something separate from that vile thing? Who is the person that wants to and does fight it every day, to find any
amount of happiness and purpose in living? And the answer to those questions is … Me! Not bipolar. And that is truth behind it all. Keep fighting it, and the more you fight the more you separate yourself from it. You are not bipolar, you have bipolar. Yes, there will be days you lose the fight and fall hard. But every day you try to fight it inside, you claim back a little piece of your identity from the clutches of the nasty illness. A place within where we feel real, a place within that we can call home… no matter how small it is, and no matter what the threats are. This crazy ride that bipolar disorder takes me on, is like picking a side which by then you’re long lost. It breaks your life into a million pieces. Struck by a knife, thrown at me like darts, most of the time I feel like am actually drowning . How do I survive this roller coaster ride when most of the time I don’t feel in control of the drive… Make peace with the night and hold on tight to the ride, away from the ride breaks a new dawn and a new day to fight again. It is not about winning the fight every day. The point is to keep fighting it. You are not the illness, the illness is a part of you. It’s okay to not be okay. Love Ms Bipolar X PS - Feel free to email me on the email below or visit my facebook page @Mswillowbipolar where I publish all of the articles and some relatable quotes.

Let’s not start blaming the minorities, ‘eh. FRANKLY SPEAKING
BY JULIE FRANK
SINCE the start of the pandemic, we haven’t heard much from the FarRight. The usual loud-mouthed media names like rent-a-gob, Katie Hopkins and professional millionaire bigot, Tommy Robinson, have been very quiet too. Maybe they’re still blabbering on, but perhaps there’s more important things for the media to focus on right now? Who knows? But their absence from the UK media spotlight has been a welcome change. Then Vox, the far-right Spanish political party, pop up. They recently proposed that Spain should end universal healthcare. Meaning all non-residents will have to pay for healthcare if they get ill with the Corona Virus! That’s not only inhu-
mane, but also dangerous. If those people can’t pay, they would be left out in society to infect many others! Quite Frankly, it’s a ridiculous suggestion. But hardly surprising from the FarRight! We’ve also been warned by the Italian Premier, Giuseppe Conte, about the possible rise in Nationalism in the country. As anger at the EU’s response to the crisis grows, whatever problems Italy have getting extra EU funding right now, turning to Nationalism isn’t the answer. Nationalism does have a habit of rearing its ugly head after times of crisis and
TESTING TIMES: But blaming minorities is not the answer.
hardship. It did in the UK in the 1970s with the rise of the National Front. Also, in mainland Europe after the Great Depression. By the time Hitler came to power in January 1933, one in three Germans were unemployed. Jews were portrayed as sub-human and a threat to the economic future of the country. We all know what happened after that. So many say, ‘Never again.’ Yet the
same patterns of blame have repeated themselves over the last century. Experts believe this will be the biggest financial disaster since the Great Depression. It will be testing times. There are dark forces out there that will try and exploit this situation for their own agendas. No matter how tough things get, blaming minorities isn’t the answer. Most of us reading this newspaper are immigrants ourselves. We could find that we’re the ones being blamed for hardship. It’s not hard to imagine that there will be resentment if we’re financially stable. I believe we should treat others how we’d wish to be treated, as we could easily end up the refugees. I think now is the time we drop the hatred and resentment of immigrants and refugees, that we’ve seen so much of in recent times. We all need to work together as a globe to get through this. From a safe two metres’ distance apart though!

GRATITUDE HI Folks,
COMMENTS FROM FACEBOOK Spain’s lockdown ‘could be extended until end of April or start of May’ hints Andalucia’s President Glynn Jones
Just to say thank you, for all your hard work, in keeping us up-to-date with the latest news, and in particular during the current crisis providing us with the latest changes in the lockdown procedures as they unfold. Thank you again, Best regards, John
Think most of the population had already guessed that it would be extended. Would be nice if we could get DIY goods etc though.
THANK YOU: Keeping up-to-date with all the news.
China finally bans eating dogs, cats and exotic meat amid Covid-19 crisis
Dear Euro Weekly News, Thank you to everyone at EWN who is working so hard at keeping us all informed and entertained. Keep up the good work. Kind regards. Sarah Irving Wood To Go European SL
OUR VIEW Long-lasting actions WITHOUT a doubt 2020 will be a recession year in every advanced economy. Most affected countries have already adopted strict lockdown measures. The economic statistics already coming in are abysmal and it is almost impossible for most people to work or spend as much as they used to. Understandably, the first economic policy response was: do something, do it big and do it fast. The first priority of these policies should be to support the health sector, quickly increasing the capacity of beds, staff and ventilators, mobilising the production of the valuable equipment and nurturing innovation in treatments and vaccines. Secondly, to preserve well-being, facing a disaster that affects everyone, governments must provide social insurance to help the most vulnerable make it through. Another goal is to have the economy ready to go back to work with a minimal shortfall in productivity when the lockdown period loosens. The fear is that companies that cannot make payments during the freeze will close their doors for good. Some workers who are laid off now will later have trouble finding the same job that suits them and pays well. To keep businesses afloat, almost every country has deferred some, or most, tax payments. That is an effective and simple way for the government to give credit. Finally, policymakers must stimulate the economy as soon as we can get back to work. For all countries, the disruption in the production and supply chains might lead to large increases in prices. This biggest trade-off that moderate policymakers face today is to separate the temporary exceptional measures from permanent long-lasting revolutions.

Troubled mind Hi Leapy, As you know, here, in Spain, we are in a lockdown which is severely upheld by the army and the police and has just been extended to the middle of April, possibly, beyond. My mind is very confused by this virus. We know for sure that it began in China where we are told, it arose from a market where cats, dogs, snakes and bats are slaughtered and sold in appalling conditions. The virus was identified in December last year, or earlier, but not announced to the rest of the world for at least two months or more. Around the world where it has spread, there is now a desperate shortage of relevant medical equipment, drugs, sanitisers, masks, gloves and clothing. The reason there is such a shortage of those items worldwide is due to the virus which began in China, and because most countries get their supplies of these products from guess where - China! This is because stricken countries that are now desperate for such products ceased manufacturing them a while ago because China does it cheaper. Desperate countries are now buying masses of those products from China again, where, according to today’s news, their lockdowns are being eased and the Ground Zero markets where the virus began are now back in business as usual and booming! Meanwhile, many countries, including the world’s economic leaders, will take 10 to 20 years to fully recover from the effects of the virus and the massive cost of the support they have had to give to businesses and their citizens. If you follow my thoughts on this subject you may also feel that this entire economic and political merry-go-round needs serious investigation and a major rethink on how we and other countries handle the production of such critical products in future, which, in my opinion, the NHS should play a significant role in that. This is my troubled mind talking while trapped in this unprecedented, worldwide lockdown. Keep well, keep washing your hands and always look on the bright side of life. (Monty Python). Kind regards, William (who reads what you write and agrees with 99.9% of it.)

Costa Blanca Man is Jailed as he Breaks Lockdown Rules Six Times Mel Sayle I also have to say... Why six times? He should have been heavily fined after two surely... Wasting police time... another crime!
Same Sex Marriage and Abortion Laws to blame for Covid-19, claims DUP Councillor, causing outrage in Northern Ireland Jace T Adams This is a perfect example of why the separation of church and state is absolutely vital for any society that doesn’t want to live in the dark ages. Funnily enough, the Bible teaches nothing about abortion other than how to do it (‘Life begins at birth’ etc), and marriage equality harms no-one (nor is this a Biblical issue, either). This is just another individual using his personal interpretation of his religion to suit his own bigotry.
Keir Starmer accuses the government of making ‘serious mistakes’ over the Coronavirus crisis in the UK Ian Billing Well he is right. Johnson had known what was coming since January and did absolutely nothing. Whether you agree with Starmer’s timing is another matter, but what he says is true. The PPE and testing fiasco is down to the government. They even ‘war gamed’ it in 2016 and then suppressed the report and ignored all its findings. Maybe ‘being nice’ about it, even at a time of crisis, is the wrong thing to do. You don’t escape scrutiny, even in hard times.
Costa Del Sol Doctor in Spain Slams The British Over Their Lockdown Procedures And Says He Won’t Be Surprised To See 40,000 Deaths Lucinda Butler Maybe that’s what our stupid government intend for us! I have to agree with this Doctor. What’s wrong with BoJo? Never mind the instructions, make orders and enforce them, one of the first should be you can only go out for food or essential work, not walking along the beach, sitting in the park. Jeez!
At the EWN, we pride ourselves that reports are accurate and fair. If we do slip up, we promise to set the record straight in a clear, no-nonsense manner. To ask for an inaccuracy to be corrected. Email: editorial@euroweeklynews.com

HUMANITY
DAVID WORBOYS THE human race has privileges that no other species can even dream of. With these privileges come responsibilities - for the welfare of each other, animals and the planet. We have abused our powers and now face a shattering wake-up call. Once we change the way we behave, the pandemic will surely disappear. What is happening is another test for humanity relative to our misdemeanours. It follows warnings ranging from Black Death and Spanish Flu to AIDS and Ebola. For millennia we have inflicted cruelty on animals by torture, neglect and confinement. Now it is we who are CONFINED. Factory farming methods have condemned countless billions of animals to a life of physical suffering and mental misery. Beasts of burden are beaten and worked to a slow death. For ‘entertainment’ we have
DIONE LOCKYER I HEAR so many people, especially women, talk badly of themselves. I’m not just talking about clients, I’m talking about people that I see and talk to on a daily basis. They would say things like, I’m fat, I’m ugly, I’m useless, I’m a failure, I can’t do anything right, I’m not as good as....! Do these words ring true to any of you? Ask yourself, would you speak these words to your best friend? Would you tell your best friend they’re ugly or fat or worthless? I bet the answer is no! So why do you speak so badly of yourself?? The answer is... UNBALANCE!! When you are unbalanced in life, you begin to feel overwhelmed,

ANIMAL RIGHTS: China has a particularly bad record. murder and sadism in the form of hunting, shooting and bullfighting. China has a particularly bad animal rights record and a demand for ivory that results in the horrific killing and suffering of elephants and rhinos. The corona virus originated in an ANIMAL and spread to a fish market in CHINA. The lesson to be learned is to value and protect all our animals. One of these measures will be to ques-
tion the consumption of meat. Nature provides all the food we need, regardless of animals. As we have become less tribal and more globalised we have forgotten that we are all spiritually connected. Since the mid-50’s there has been a rise in terrorism, crime and persecution of others who are perceived as different or who have different beliefs or ideas. There is still intolerance, hatred, racism and self-
ishness. We now have the opportunity to grow closer to each other by caring and providing for ‘strangers’ in need during this crisis. Urban terrorist attacks and knife crime will virtually cease now. We humans have polluted the planet. The innocent birds and all wildlife are as free and unaffected today as in normal times. We emphatically are not. But, so long as we cannot drive

our vehicles or fly to places, the levels of pollution will fall dramatically. There will be far fewer chemicals dumped into our rivers and garbage into the oceans. The Amazon is regarded as the ‘lungs of the earth’ for obvious reasons. Over past decades it has been devastated, along with indigenous tribes in the interests of ‘development.’ Hence the virus attacks the LUNGS of humans. The abuse of drugs and excess alcohol has been a growing source of crime and misery everywhere. In the near future, supplies of drugs will not move around the world to dealers and consumers. As bars, clubs and restaurants close, the excessive consumption of alcohol should fall considerably. Avoidable pressure on health services will be relieved. The lesson to be learned is to feel good about ourselves, others and life in general without dependency on these addictions. Let’s hope that this dreadful scourge will quickly disappear once there is evidence of our new resolve.
AN UNBALANCED LIFE AND TALKING BADLY TO YOURSELF your life seems to be filled with chaos therefore you start to tell yourself what you dislike about yourself. Here are six signs that confirm that your life is unbalanced: 1. You react or even over react to people or situations that are out of your control. 2. You feel that you have ongoing health issues such as, fatigue, headaches, anxiety. 3. You feel that life is just ‘happening to you’ and everything is at the mercy of chance. 4. Everything in your life feels impossible to achieve and you lack any motivation. 5. You attract all of the wrong people to you (negativity breeds
UNBALANCED: Is life just happening to you? negativity). 6. You’re too tired to recognise or enforce your own personal and emo-
tional boundaries. How can you restore your inner balance? Here
are some tips and techniques to help you: 1. Slow down - Re-establish that sense of control by slowing down. Whilst it may feel as though you are not being productive when there’s so much to do, you’ll actually accomplish much more in less time and in a more pleasant way. 2. Focus on the here and now - You cannot control what will happen tomorrow, nor can you change what happened yesterday! The more you focus on the here and now, the fewer thoughts you will have on the past or the future. 3. Let go on control One of the hardest yet one of the best things to do. Understand that you can only control you. You
can’t only control your own thoughts and feelings but you also have the ability to change it! If you have a negative thought, ask yourself, what physical evidence do I have that makes this thought true? Follow this up with, how do I want to feel right now? 4. Break old habits - You have to stop doing what you have always been doing. If it doesn’t serve you, it needs to be removed. By simply breaking rigid or thoughtless habits one by one, you will begin to erode those negative patterns and beliefs. Most importantly, be kind and patient with yourself. You were put here for a reason. Love every inch of you, including your flaws.

Accentuate the positive
BARRY DUKE IN A bid to distance myself from ever-more-alarming Covid-19 news, I went in search of a vintage music channel and found Montreal’s ABC 50’s on the Internet. The first song I heard played was a massively popular number dating back to 1944 called Accentuate the Positive. So I took on board its core message - ‘You've got to accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative’ - and started a list of things that have brought some measure of pleasure into my tiny quarantined world over the past week. Top of the short list was the disappearance of a bloody great box that was partially blocking the entrance to our apartment. I’d accepted it on behalf of the concierge of our apartment block because he was away. After I notified Julio
The Pied Pipers were the first group to record ‘Accentuate the Positive.’
of the delivery, he said he’d collect it within a couple of days. Due to matters beyond his control he was unable to do so. The eyesore languished in our hallway for two weeks. Second on my list was a delivery I received of three very large bottles of vaping liquid.
I’d ordered the stuff from a local online store on March 14, but it failed to arrive. When I discovered Vape Bros has a Facebook presence, I messaged them and demanded to know why my order hadn’t come. They promptly answered, pointing
out that, in placing the order, I’d ticked a box saying I’d collect it from their Benidorm outlet. Feeling very foolish indeed, I asked whether their store was open. No, came the reply. But they promised to deliver the order the next day. And they did. My joy knew no bounds, as I was down to my last teaspoonful. Third on my list was Brexit. Wow, I thought, something has finally come along to stifle the incessant noise about the UK’s departure from the EU. This pleased me so much that I posted a message on a Facebook page called Brexpats In Spain saying ‘One good thing about Covid-19. No-one’s talking about Brexit any more ... until yesterday.’ That referred to a Business Insider report that said ‘The UK logistics sector has demanded that Prime Minister Boris Johnson extends the Brexit transition period, due to end in De-
cember, war ning that the ‘once in a lifetime’ Coronavirus pandemic must be dealt with first.’ With luck Brexit won’t ‘be done’ by the end of the year as Bojo promised. Fourth is work. For more than 20 years, being self-employed, I have worked from home. So being confined, and having to work eight or more hours a day means that I’m not lumbered with long, tedious hours of doing nothing. Fifth is cash. I’m not spending money on anything but essentials, so I’m better off to the tune of about €200. And as I’m not a great one for boozing at home, my alcohol intake has dropped by about 90 per cent, and I’ve managed to shed a few surplus kilos. And if I were to abide by a Covid-19 directive issued on March 31 by the mayor of Benidorm to avoid lifts and only use the stairs, I’ll be down many more kilos as I live on the 31st floor!

AFTER 18 years trying for a baby through IVF, a couple is spending lockdown with their ‘miracle’ identical twins after becoming a family at long last on Mother’s Day. Mick, 53, and Ruth O’Malley, 39, from Scunthorpe, Lincolnshire, underwent the IVF process five times before the joyous arrival of their boys at Scunthorpe General Hospital. Ruth said “we feel truly blessed to have met them after waiting for such a long time,” reports Daily Mail UK. “If you had told me that 18 years after I was told I couldn’t conceive children naturally, I would be back in Scunthorpe General Hospital having twins - on Mother’s Day, no less, I wouldn’t have believed you.” Ruth and Mick, one of 10 children, met on the Golden Wonder factory floor in 1999 and were married three years later. They were eager to have children, but soon after tying the knot, they were told it would only be possible

EVER since the border crossing at Aventoft which separates Denmark from Germany has been closed, a boyfriend and girlfriend meet each day to chat, have lunch and a drink. Inga Rasmussen is 85 and lives in Denmark whilst Karsten Tüchsen Hansen is 89 and they have been friends for two years, but never expected to be kept apart in this way and although they call each other on the phone, they bring chairs from home so they can meet on a daily basis.
