Very disappointed with your reporting lately, the sneering towards anything left wing has increased. It is no longer possible to get a balanced view of Spanish politics from your blog. I am unsubscribing. Adios.

Actually, in this article he also mentioned the far-right giving xenophobic speeches and rejecting “otherness”.

That’s quite balanced if you ask me. What’s missing is more examples and context. I don’t think you can get away with calling a speech xenophobic without explaining why.

He gave a clear example of the far left’s policy of releasing pedophiles and rapists early. He didn’t do the same for the far right. So the audience has to take it as a given that they are xenophobic while this hasn’t been shown in the writing.
