The rest after this ad
Unsurprisingly, the time has come for closures.

The amnesty would be to agree with the secessionist sects and endorse another coup dtat
The Foundation for the Defense of the Spanish Nation (DENAES) has called on the Spaniards to demonstrate this Sunday in Madrid against the amnesty, which would mean a general forgiveness of the crimes committed by the separatist coup, and against the coup that is being prepared Pedro Sanchezwhich would constitute a new step towards the total breakdown of coexistence and legality in Spain.
The architect, associate researcher at the Gustavo Bueno Foundation, writer and director of DENAES, Iván Vélez, speaks to LA GACETA hours before the demonstration.
Why does DENAES summon the Spaniards this Sunday in the Plaza de Colón?
Because we understand that the coup d’état perpetrated six years ago by the Generalitat has been revitalized thanks to the short-termism and lack of scruples of the PSOE. From all areas of society we must try to stop the new coup.
How do you assess that the Popular Party has not supported the demonstration?
It is a shame because it is a call that has been extended to every Spaniard who wants to defend his nation in the face of the very serious threats to which it is exposed lately.

Statements by Mart Smeets in Out of view have caused a lot of commotion. The statements of the former NOS celebrity in the NTR documentary, which focuses on the work culture in Hilversum, are called, among other things, “rude and intimidating”. This is what happened.
It started with the article that de Volkskrant published in March 2023 about abuses at the editorial staff of NOS Sport. In total, almost two hundred complaints have been submitted by employees, former employees and other involved parties about the working atmosphere in the sports editorial office. These were not only about bullying behavior and (sexual) intimidation, but also about discrimination and verbal aggression.
Leaders such as Tom Egbers and Jack van Gelder are said to have been guilty of misconduct in several cases. Egbers announced that he would not appear on television for the time being, Van Gelder stuck to the apology he had previously offered.
Aïcha Marghadi presented it for several years from 2010 onwards NOS Sports Journal. She was one of 32 people interviewed for the revealing article de Volkskrant.
