    Spanish Local Elections Results: Madrid and Barcelona: Indignados in the city council

    A different kind of understanding politics has appeared recently in Spain. The popular candidatures have won the two main cities of Spain: Madrid and Barcelona. In Barcelona, Ada Colau won, very known social activist and very active. And Manuela Carmena, in Madrid. Also with a long history in social movements however also she has been a magistrate and now a retired woman.

    They represent the change. Where the organizations organized by the people, in a more participative way get representation.

    These candidatures come from the 15M, the "Indignados". They are not parties, are the union of people, in a more horizontal form, where everything was decided in assemblies and in a more participative way.

    Well, let's introduce an article from The Guardian: Spain's indignados could rule Barcelona and Madrid after local elections success

    I believe, that it is a way to make closer the politics to the citizens and advance into more libertarian systems. It is only a beginning.
    WORK AND FIGHT FOR THE REVOLUTION AND AGAINST THE INJUSTICE.

    So what are your predictions for Iberia? Will the Progressives or Conservatives rule and who are in the majority currently?

    Que viva la familia real y la monarquia en Iberia!!
    Let's see how much care and compassion Trump and Republicans show for their fellow Americans to truly help them out in their time of need.

    Let's start the count to see if Trump comes through on the many things he promised to do for Americans. If he doesn't, along with a Republican Congress, then what's his and their excuse?
