In the last few weeks, President Milei has shown a truly hostile attitude towards certain journalists. I think it’s a huge mistake, a clear sign of intolerance, of narrow-mindedness, quite the opposite of what liberalism stands for: “willingness to respect or accept behaviour or opinions different from one’s own; openness Seguir leyendo
There is an old Greek proverb that reads, “A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.” Likewise, I strongly believe a society grows strong when we take good care of our children’s education, because without education there is no future, Seguir leyendo
President Javier Milei’s government has announced it will change the name of the Centro Cultural Kirchner (Kirchner Cultural Centre, CCK) in Buenos Aires. I think it’s a good idea. Truth to tell, politicians have disappointed us for over 70 years now; therefore I wouldn’t “honour” any of them. Instead, I’d Seguir leyendo
I live in La Plata, the beautiful capital of the province of Buenos Aires, which has adopted me since my college years. These last few rainy days, we all felt a painful “déjà vu”. Eleven years ago, April 2nd 2013, the city suffered severe flooding that caused many lives. Roads turned Seguir leyendo
‘Pimpinela’ at the pink house There seems to be a sort of historical curse between presidents and vice-presidents in Argentina. They seldom get on well. More often than not, they are mere political marriages of convenience, like the last administration (Alberto Fernández and Cristina Fernández de Kirchner). Now there’s a Seguir leyendo
Wait a minute! They must be kidding! Is it true that our members of Congress will get a 30% pay rise? Right now, of all times? Will they pocket 2 and a half million pesos per month? Have Martin Menem and Victoria Villarruel actually approved that? There must be some Seguir leyendo
The year has just started, but so much has happened since Milei took office last December, that it feels like 2024 is about to end. We’re all worn out, exhausted, dead beat, knackered and bushed. Is the worst yet to come, we wonder. It’s a war of all against all, Seguir leyendo
Chill out, Mr President! Javier Milei keeps insulting his opponents, calling them “traitors,” “rats,” “criminals,” “trash,” among other nasty things. He seems to forget his role as president. He’s much more relevant and influential than the average citizen; therefore, he should mind his mouth, his tongue, his manners. Actually, his Seguir leyendo
Someone should remind both Fernández (Alberto & Cristina) that silence is golden. Alberto reappeared at a book presentation in Madrid (his new place in the world) with the author Agustín Fontenla. The title of the novel in question is Desconexión, quite suitable for someone like our former president, who was Seguir leyendo
Alberto Fernández has started the application for his pension as ex-president: seven million pesos. I’m not kidding. The worst president we’ve had since we recovered our democracy, will get seven million pesos each month. What a nerve! Does he think he deserves that obscene sum of money after his lousy Seguir leyendo
