Default New Laws on April 1.

We need to bring your attention to these new and important laws. Research by: Richelle de Wit and Myra Azzopardi Swainson.
Decreto Real 2014/0104
Article 1. All EU citizens who have lived here for ten years or more, MUST, take out Spanish citizenship. All those who do not choose to do so must present themselves at the office of ‘extranjeria’ in their town and give good and acceptable reasons. Children will take not have to comply until they are 18.
Article 2. To ensure social uniformity in all member states, no more than 1 immigrant per 10 indigenous citizens. This originates from northern EU countries where they try to avoid ghettos with foreign workers. As we´re all one Europe, anti-discrimination laws dictate this rule to be put into force in Spain as well..The calculations: 1 non Spanish resident in each 12 square meters.
Article 3. Following Cataluña, now at the Costa Blanca and the Costa del Sol, parading along the boulevards alongside the beach in beachwear. Torso and bottoms to be covered in clothing at all times when not on the beach...Fines for non compliance, can reach the sum of up to 3000 euro’s
Article 4. All those who wish to keep their legally issued EU driving licences after today, must take a mini test. This new law only refers to Britons or any other drivers who have ever driven on the left. The test is simple and mainly concentrates on the entering and exit of roundabouts. Test costs including five lessons, 250 euro’s.
Article 5. The tax on sun and solar panels, now taken a step further and to be used for sunbathers. Tickets to be bought on entry to the beach from authorised inspectors on the promenades. Anyone leaving the beach with noticeable sunburn may be fined for excess.

Not just the Spanish government.
In Portugal if your holiday is spoilt by 3 or more days of rain, the government will refund any expenses incurred because of the inclement weather.
In the UK, Spanish and Italian are being dropped as a foreign language in schools and replaced with Polish and Persian.

Unfortunately we live in Spain. It is not 1 April that they play tricks here, but, if I remember rightly,

28th Dec but the laws here make it seem like every day

The way this present Govt is heading it's probably understandable that many will take it seriously.

For instance just consider the 30,000 euro fine for saying a wrong word about Spain and the present bunch of crooks who are running it.

Ooops, there's my lifetime savings just gone down the Swanee.
