Incompetence vs CRIMINALITY
It's a no-brainer in Spain, I'm very much afraid that I must say.
Especially when the Partido Popular is involved.
Though to be fair PSOE can give them a run for their money in most places.
Sadly in most parts of Spain currently "a run for their money" means a run to the bank to pocket the government monies and put them in one's own pocket. Or at a pinch that of one's political party or trade union or quango.
Locals seem wholly inured to the process which has been going on for decades at least ( ¿ centuries ? )without anyone in authority as much as batting an eye-lid.
Though to be fair, near Castelló, in the Caso Gürtel corruption case they did take decisive action. They punished the fiscal involved and they let off the corrupt politician by a minimum split decision of the jury men at the trial.
¿ Amazing ?
