Can confirm that Jen Jen - only EWN carried this “story”. The two sources started out as members of Congress of Deputies, by the end of the interview with the reporter they had become Government Ministers. Obviously speaking to reporters of a low-grade weekly free sheet is good for promotion!!
Sarcasm (aimed at EWN) aside, there has been no other mention of it from either official or Spanish media sources and Spain isn’t given to giving 6 weeks notice .... how much notice did we get last time? Not even a day was it?
No idea what the landscape will look like in 6 weeks - a wee bit cooler at night would be welcome - but as others have said, there are no officially published plans to close Spain as from 18/9. I’d suggest EWN were having a slow week and needed to invent some scare.
