In Valencia, for example, the number of MPs has gone from 89 to 99 of one legislature to another without increasing thus the number of sessions, debates and laws.

Angel Corcostegui when he left the Bank of Santander or 52 of Ignacio Goirigolzarri to leave the BBVA is a painful sarcasm to those millions of unemployed who survive as they can.
