Sancho says: What giants?

In another thoughtful article, our friend Sancho says on his blog Tilting at Windmills, "one major difference between Britain and Spain is that whilst centre right and centre left parties predominate the far left in Spain plays a major role whereas in the UK it occupies the fringe. There are IU councillors, town halls and provincial administrations as well as MPs at regional, national and European level. So when the IU decides to mobilise it matters." Did you know that the Spanish government is proposing to raise the retirement age from 65 to 67? Or that far left parties and unions are planning major moves against it?
Sancho writes on just about anything; some recent items: Talking the Papal Talk, Slipping Off the Page, Solo Jihadist in Al Andalus, to name only a few.
