30 years of Spain's constitution

…that's something worth celebrating and considering.

The most recent Spanish constitution was agreed by referendum 30 years ago today. Apparently, no one is boycotting anyone over the language clauses… I guess it's a local thing.

Oh yeah, and while I'm here… When can we get rid of this royal family? Visca la republica!

    To get rid of the king you need to do something about the constitution – he's at the centre of it.

    Yeah, that's the problem though, isn't it?

    They seem to be calling it Magna Carta on the news, quite a bit.

    Your friend Tardà got in trouble, when he finished the historic sentence.

    Even non-spanish speakers can surely tell the difference between saying "muerte al Borbon" and "muerte a Juan Carlos"…

    If his intention was to catch a non-critical thinking press and its blind followers and get a little publicity, seems like he was dead on don't you think?
