The author pointed out that all the established parties that do not want to run together now, regardless of the formula or the name, did so in 2016.

The author stated that the death of Anwar Shaikh marked the farewell of the leading contemporary Marxist economist.

The PP tries to criminalize the protest in Sol, falsely accusing them of being violent. But the only violence here is evicting an 87-year-old woman from her lifelong home, and tens of thousands of others, no matter how protected it may be by (unjust) laws. https://t.co/hcfxIo9oUt #Protesta #DerechosHumanos #JusticiaSocial #ES (translated)
