Very well said Marta, there are dozens of people suffering all over Europe, not just in Spain from problems around buying houses abroad. In the old days, Britain would stand up for its own citizens.

What a marvellous ornament to UKIP is Marta Andreasen ! Doing exactly what a parliamentarian should be doing ie supporting her constituents. The Spanish president took off his ear blockers when she began gabbling in Spanish ! More power to her elbow.

Muy bueno Sra Andreason.

Please feel free to speak in your mother tongue in the EP - don't feel you have to speak in English for our benefit, I'm quite happy to listen to a translator (particularly the one on this video, she sounds nice!)

It will be in the interest of the Junta to call an amnesty, legalise present builds and collect the tax revenues owing to the respective councils. Ilegal builds thereafter will be demolished. They also need to clamp down on their own corrupt officials, lawyers, architects and notarias. Purchases also need to be more aware of the legalities & the lack of it, here in spain.

@PartyInterested Puttin people down at birth. That sounds pretty nice, and not offensive at all.

Take care

[PartyInterested]

I find your language offensive and in particular the use of the term "retard" since this implies that you are refering to people who have some kind of learning impairment , which I am sure is not the case. I myself am the owner of such a property, I am also the father of a child born with learning difficulties. Your attitude, particularly as you have been involved in the sale of property in Spain is reprehesible, I think perhaps it would be better had you been put down at birth.

Does anyone know if Zapatero took action on this case yet? Im making an assignment related to this and Im looking for more information. Some links would be very helpful. ASAP

Just look at Zapatero's face! What a picture, going to have to take a screenshot of that and have it as my desktop!
