Hello good morning!
The adventurer Sánchez Cogedor said this week, after landing in Barajas after unjustly spending 15 months in an Iranian prison, that citizens do not know how lucky they are to have been born in Spain, despite the problems of migration, unemployment and political tension .
Illegal immigration. The arrival of undocumented foreigners in the last year has skyrocketed by 83%. The main cause of this sharp increase is due to the continuous arrival of canoes from Senegal to the Canary Islands coasts. This island community saw 39,910 migrants arrive by sea, 154% more than in 2022.
Job opportunities are the main incentive that pushes foreigners from a poor country to want to come to Europe, with Spain being one of the preferred countries to enter. The truth is that the labor market closes 2023 with 540,000 new jobs. It is an end to the year on a good note, at least on paper.
They say it was a coffee. Employment has good indicators, but calm and tranquility in the political arena is conspicuous by its absence. The PP initially wanted to deny that it had maintained contacts with Junts before the Congressional Board election. Afterwards, he clarified that it was just an informal chat to have a snack.
The attack in Iran only greatly increases the pressure already existing in the area of the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf. The data indicate that the deaths in the two explosions that occurred yesterday in the city of Kerman amount to 103 and the injured 211.
Far from normalization. Israel wants neighbors who lived near Gaza’s northern border to return home. However, those who fled the barbarism of Hamas on October 7 are very far from wanting to return. As Manuel Valls says, Jews do not forget.
Sun, gastronomy and culture. Spain aims for record. There are 79.8 million foreign tourists. Visitor spending during their stays grows by 17% compared to 2019 (before the pandemic). This exceeds 100,000 million euros in revenue.
Do not stop the Music. The illegal rave party that has been held since last Christmas Eve in Fuente Álamo (Murcia) will not be evicted by the Civil Guard for security reasons. It has been decided by the Government Delegation in that community.

Nurses may prescribe ibuprofen and paracetamol against fever, which does not mean that it is not still the doctor who assesses the causes of the low-grade fever and defines the treatment to follow. The authorization has come from the Ministry of Health.
Honorary titles. Real Madrid football team is the winter champion after beating Mallorca 1-0 at home, with a goal from Rúdiger and the display of an ugly and rough game. Just the opposite of what happened in Montilivi. Girona beat Atlético 4-3 in a vibrant match.
Luigi and Iango are the preferred photographers of the most beautiful women in the world, who gladly accept to pose for them. Pushed in part by Madonna’s godfathership, they left hairdressing and dancing respectively to become image artists.
