On March 18th, the Spanish government gave the Green light to a deep water oil exploration project barely 60 kms. off the coast of the Canary islands Lanzarote and Fuerteventura, where these wells are supposed to be and could yield as much as 100.000 barrels of oil per day.

Some of those people who are trying to explain it would better keep silent. Some other times, they simply argue it’s other people's fault. An extreme observer would confirm that corruption is the main issue in Spanish politics just by having a look at the front pages in journals and by listening to the news programmes in any of our Spanish radio or television broadcasting companies.
