Rather eventful session this week, am now on first-name terms with all the security staff following an epic battle against bureacracy in order to get an expired pass renewed. Myself and Rafaele also interviewed Pierre Moscovici, which was rather traumatic as it involved getting to the apparently non-existant 12th floor of the tower, which is located in a parallel universe we were eventually able to find with the help of none other than Mr Anti-Europe himself & leader of the UK Europe-haters contingent - Nigel Farage, who was entirely amiable and extremely helpful, so my opinion of him has been radically reconsidered. Somewhat.
Anyway, a lot of things came up but the rest of it will have to wait as am in Barcelona ce weekend, attempting to stamp out the last remnants of my Anti-Span policy, which things like Dali, the institution of a Socialist gouvernment led by a valiant pro-European, and not hating the Spanish language nearly so much as I used to - have all contributed to gradually remedying.
As for that military coup I mentioned, the state of affairs appears to be even worse than I first thought, as calls for an early election & demonstrations of collective action, with protests leading impressive numbers out onto the streets to condemn Zapatero's political decisions and even his "illegitimate" regime, prove that it isn't just the officers who are grumbling. I suppose mobilisation is good thing in itself, even if they're mobilising in the wrong direction. Aie aie aie, non me gusta.
