"An evicted elderly disabled woman, who has become symbolic of Spain's housing crisis, will be able to return to her home in Madrid, according to her lawyer.".....

"Abascal's lawyer, Beatriz Duro, told a press conference there had been "goodwill from both parties" and that she would pay a similar amount of rent under a new contract, averting a significant price hike."

So if I’m Spanish and renting and can’t afford my rent what am I going to do next? The lefty government will try to introduce something similar to rent caps (I suspect, something that comrade khan wanted to introduce) which means people stop investing in rental properties which impacts the economy with less job generation and tax revenue and fewer rental properties, hurting the people the government were try to help. But hey nobody said socialism understands the real world.

Who knows, but does it include fucking off to Spain, again?

Another great response. You lefties really can’t engage in any sensible conversation. Can you manage to engage with the point I made?

They genuinely can’t think more than one step ahead. It’s wild. 
 

Advocating for rent caps etc, despite history proving over and over again that they make things worse. 

Then instead of actually trying to understand how markets work, they throw insults 😂

They profess to understand economics too. Anyway they probably won’t respond as their leader / dad has told them to ignore us both. 😉

I can see why! They've really revolutionised space travel for those satellites, really revolutionised it.  Before that rocket launch no satellite was ever launched into space using a rocket.  None.  Ever.

Vive la revolution!

 

Starship just did something no previous flight has ever done: 

Reached Earth orbit, deployed 26 next-gen Starlink V3 satellites, then executed a controlled deorbit and splashdown.
 

You’re being facetious and smarmy, but it’s actually another huge step forward, so you’re making yourself look a bit silly

If you are an 87 year old Spaniard and renting, and your rent suddenly increases by 400%, such that it exceeds your total income, what are you going to do next ?

Move to an area that I can afford the rent?

Nope. I don't give a shiny shit about rent controls in Spain, so see no need to engage with the point you made.

Well, boy, don't I feel like the fool.

I didn't know that it did something no previous flight has ever done. None. Ever.

I was under the misguided apprehension that the Mercury programme orbited the earth and splashed down in the Atlantic in 1962. Then there was Gemini programme, Apollo programme, Soyuz programme, Orion programme that all did the same.

I feel so stupid now that I know this was the first one to achieve such a feat. Ever. It's so revolutionary.

Vive la revolution. Again.
