You may have knowledge that others here do not, but a toll on the bridge would not be accepted by either government. The loss in revenue they would suffer would never justify the toll. What might and could happen is putting a toll section further down the Algarve motorway before hitting Faro or the Lisbon junction, but that way there is a choice. The fundamental principals in both Portugal and Spain is that if you put a toll road there has to be a viable, free alternative - how will that happen at the bridge?

Still, what do I know? I only live here.

The irony is if people in Costa Esuri had listened to the people like Forte who posted on here a few years ago warning what may happen as it is Spain, instead of saying "that won`t happen here, my agent and solicitor said so" they probably wouldn`t be in the position they are now.

I was being facetious. The irony of a Socialist party cutting down on waste collection, leaving it to rot in the street, and putting people out of work.

And I'm talking at council level - and as you may have worked out by now around here, the Socialists in town often have very few active policies in common with the national government. If I remember correctly, Aljaraque changed red in 2007 too, no?

There was a very expensive poilcy by the PSOE in Andalucia (and Im sure elsewhere too) to target specific seats and forget other ones. They poured so much money into our area for example, nobody else stood a chance. But hey - that's the way it works, no complaints there. Since then what they have done is continued now for 20 months on a 'honeymoon' policy period - crowd winning schemes that hide the fact that nothing is getting done. A few grumbles about no business stimulus? Throw more money at the Carnaval that'll keep 'em 'appy!

Anyway, WAAAAYYYYY off topic now.

Anyone want to sell their Esuri property for €50,000 before the repo men come in??
