      Paul Mason’s 13.41 minute assessment broadcast last night. However he made no mention of the €millions ‘borrowed’ illegally from would-be purchasers of Spanish property – try throwing that into the calculation…

      Well, we knew this a long time ago, but when given the BBC treatment its spine chilling.

      When are the Spanish politicians going to get real and start dealing with this? Im fearing that the people will take the bull by the horns before the government – that wouldnt be good.

      Well worth watching for those who haven’t already done so.
