I’ve been living part time in Spain for almost twenty years. I love it but I don’t love it with stars in my eyes. They have a far right party that is gaining in power and there is plenty of political unrest. Mind you, I’m aware that their far right isn’t as extreme as Americas but just the same it wasn’t that long ago that Franco died and Spain got out from under his thumb. You’d think all Spaniards would remember but they don’t. I would be hard pressed to choose a place that offers the kind of security we all crave. Especially as climate change makes more and more places undesirable. The western world is undeniably leaning right and democracy is in decline.
