    Sorry, I live here and everyday I see corruption ..... laws being broken , red tape bureaucracy etc...

    Red lights in Spain are a suggestion to stop - you don't actually need to
    stop - especially if you pass them slowly or fly through them at the 1st few or last few seconds of said light being red - at least from what I witness 5-6 times every day.


    If you buy a faulty good at a Spanish shop and try and get your money back ... BUENNNOOOO!!! HOMBRE !!!! QUE DICES !!! ESTAS LOCO!!! ,


    Everyone is corrupt, lazy and just tries to rip you off ...

    I'm married to one of the breed, and have lived over there for several extended periods. I agree with the red lights being a suggestion to slow down, and there is some extra red tape (like having to show your bleedin DNI all the time!) but tarnishing the whole country as lazy and corrupt is a bit OTT.

    Or watched any of the millions of australian TV shows we have over here.

    Although I think she was referring to Canada.

    How come a nation of people who have spent so much time in other countries still can't cope with being in another country?

    (note - Aussies are a bit thick)
