No problem!! Spain shall rise.
It rose back in the 50s WITHOUT the help of the Marshall Plan so I
don´t see any problem now.

#2 What are you're political views? You come over all leftist on the colonial issue but here and on the thread about that anti-Argentina woman (Aznar's wife?) you seem to support the most conservative forces in Spain; you even said she was a Thatcherite like it was a good thing!

@3 Ms Aguirr is the President of the community of Madrid.
The mayor is Aznar´s wife. Also Ms Aguire is a heavy weight within the
conservative political party. I respect Mrs Thatcher and her leadership
I am not crazy about Mr Cameron he seems to have his hands tight
down. On the colonial issue I would like to see some sort of agreement
that would settle the Gibraltar issue once and for all and would like
The UK and Spain to get on. (for example: during HM jubilee the
Spanish Queen cancelled her assistance because of the visit of her
son to Gibraltar. This I would like stopped.)
In reference to The Falklands/Malvinas nothing should be
negotiated with the present leadership in Argentina.

#4 “In reference to The Falklands/Malvinas nothing should be negotiated with the present leadership in Argentina”

And I thought we were getting on so well! What Argentine government would you prefer, one more like the PP?
