What Happened To A Palce In Greece

Asahago · Farewell


3 years If they tell me, there would given credit. And yet, here I am ... writing a farewell in the best-known blog Calafell (without false modesty) with a strange mixture of joy and sadness.

Sadness ... because this is a farewell, at the end of the road, and goodbyes are sad. Joy ... because this farewell is the beginning of another journey, a new career.

met Pere (Nevot, for those who read the blog) in a press conference in 2009, explaining many things that should not have happened in Segur Tennis Club, which has not finished. Already knew his blog and some of those who collaborate in it. Within days, he forged a collaboration that has become a great friendship.

However, above friends, interests and any other item, Nevot has a policy in his blog: no one in a political party may be direct and one partner decides to go policy may continue in it. A rule that we all share. I'm not the first that complies.

So I quit. A 'contracor' because the blog hooked, because this tool has become more than a blog because one lives with strength, fills you, gives you a lot of positives. As Teresa said Fulfilled, a means of reference, with over a thousand page views every day, comes much responsibility, carrying a daily half umbrella citizen opinion and information provided with arguments and documents. So get the attacks you get from certain people and groups unaccustomed to see how they bring to the fore as they are and not as they would like to be seen.

found that 1 March was the last time I wrote an entry because I had prepared the content awaiting the opening of Pita Rodríguez. But since 11 February and have not been republished. This is because Nevot is strict on this issue. He does not know anything about politics and want the blog is always that for which it was created, a tool for reporting, publication of 'les historiques mancances' and a means to collect non-political participation as far as possible citizen voice discontent. And so it should be.

With the blog I've been in many battles: the POUM and the manifestation, the tennis club, posters, broken streets, steps, meetings with neighbors, TVE visits this municipality, partnerships with media the manteros, citizen protests, the investigation of dirty laundry ... and I lose the account. Almost none of you imagine the hours, commitment and the good feeling that we have here day after day to bring readers a few lines.

But something was missing. We had told us to enter more than one municipal policy, that we take our ideas and proposals which should be heard there, where should be executed. Where will power to carry them out. And I will put my grain of sand disappear caciques, the livers of politics, opportunistic buyers Feedback and filth that use some, going from bar to bar to try to get some political mileage with the famous "slander something left."

I stand in politics. Not even I will ask you vote for me today would not be fair or ethical to do so in the blog. Just ask them to vote, which will vote on 22-M, even white if they have reached total disaffection of politicians, because it's the only way for the next election there is a real change.

wish to Nevot, Pipo, Krtica, Karmalindo, Doc, Jordi .... that you will continue to soldier on, that if I as ruler give me all the cane in the world if they think fit, that you continue taking pictures of holes (in the streets or pockets), citizen complaints and those hilarious videos that provide critical a smile. For my part, I will try to listen to the associations, neighbors, this and other blogs who have spent years calling for a change, in short, throw those bridges of interaction between the politician and the citizen, that today there are no much we can sell it well. Try, with all my strength, that everything I wrote during my 2 years on the blog, pass requests to facts.

Dear readers: thanks for your criticism during this time because they helped me to improve. Thanks to those who stop me on the street, like a man this past Monday, to say "do something that had never been done here and I congratulate you for it."

Juanjo Iglesias (Asahago)
