welshbairn Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 When Madrid realised they would lose the extradition case against the Catalans in Brussels they dropped the request. Now they want the EU to add rebellion and sedition to the list of mandatory extraditable charges, and have been told to GTF. http://catalannews.com/politics/item/brussels-rules-out-european-arrest-warrant-reform-suggested-by-spain 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By all accounts it will be a very close thing; don't see any resolution to the underlying issue in the near future. Sky's report is interesting and, if to be believed, has split families and friendships apart. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shurely Auntie Beeb hasn’t lied to me? Turned on Channel 4 news to hear of a record election turnout. Not an hour ago Radio Scotland claimed it would be disappointingly around 40%, how can they get away with such ineptitude/bias (delet as appropriate)? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote At 18:00 local time (17:00 GMT) turnout was 68%, the Catalan authorities said - about 5% higher than the corresponding figure for the 2015 regional election. Most results should have emerged by 21:00 GMT. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-42435684 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
