Puigdemont and the socialists will meet with a fact-checker in Switzerland. We don’t know when, where in that country, or the name of the verifier. Or validator. Curiosity takes over. Moderate curiosity, not curiosity about, say, how Barcelona’s next game will go or what the boss’s mood will be like today. Most Spaniards want to know more about this meeting. The problem is that the majority of Spaniards have no idea that this meeting will take place. Maybe in an elegant restaurant where Puigdemont nostalgically asks for sausages and better financing for Catalonia, a referendum, a recipe for Castilian soup and two eggs, one of which is boiled; Together with Santos Cerdán of the PSOE, we demand water and concreteness, votes and less noise. The Catalan has these days threatened to join the PP in presenting a no-confidence motion in the future if Sánchez does not comply. Feijóo starts salivating and begins to piece together a future discussion in which he says the amnesty isn’t that bad. Risky prediction: Puigdemont may outlast Feijóo in Spanish political life. In the past, Spaniards would go to Switzerland to find a life as immigrants (how nice that movie was, Un franco, fourteen pesetas). Now they will go into exile, make noise, negotiate what should be negotiated within our borders, and see Lake Leman, a wonderful sight visited by backpackers. Positions are so popular in Spain that there will be no shortage of applications for the validator role, listen, I’m a great verifyer. Check, check, young man. We do not know whether the required profile is a notary profile or a judge profile. It was not ruled out that they would prefer Don Tancredo or a mustachioed boxing referee who tended to allow low blows. Perhaps it is a former diplomat who, before speaking, remembers what happened in Gaza and calls on the parties not to use the term conflict so lightly. Or a bartender pouring glasses from Chueca. Let’s see if they will be the ones with a headache. Let them check if they are giving us too much money. They are to us.
