The Witches’ Train Chapter CLXXI

There are certainly not two worlds, but two parallel galaxies, millions of kilometers apart, where on one side reside more than 49 million Spaniards who currently live on earth; and in another, members of the government team of … Pedro Sanchez. Increasingly isolated by discredit and recourse to institutionalized lies, which distance them from values ​​on which we should never have bet in this card game where they try to stay in power at all costs; including his own shame.

A few days ago, the Minister of Transition Tuitera promised the residents of Huelva that when the AVE arrives, the journey between Huelva and Barcelona would be completed in just four hours. In this multi-colored country, where Puente would gain Maya the bee’s trust and nothing else, trains even work. But the force of real events destroys this policy of promises and accessories. A few hours after these declarations, jaded users of the cursed Huelva-Seville line, known beyond Hinojos as the witch’s train, suffered a new delay of more than an hour. Some common incidents in a service that this Monday added another historical chapter when the passenger who left Huelva towards Seville at three in the afternoon, only arrived at his destination after eleven thirty in the evening after having been stopped for six hours in the middle of nowhere and having had to drag his luggage in the middle of the night and through a muddy field.

More than eight hours to cover a distance that a top marathon runner could have covered with a sock in less time. Is it time to yawn, Mr. President? Because in Huelva they have been denouncing for years the serious deficiencies that the inhabitants of Huelva suffer in terms of transport and infrastructure and they have not even heard about it.

The latest invention to try to shore up the façade of a collapsing government is to announce, in large part, a general transport subscription which will surely alleviate general anger. You arrived late but at a good price.

The subscription affair arose after his minister introduced in various “tweets” the idea that one could travel standing up on certain routes. If wagons loaded to the ceiling are a national symbol in India, why not be overcrowded in this country, once an international rail transport power? Any event is valid rather than doing everything possible to fix the terrible service provided by trains that break down too often. Is it still a yawn, Mr. President, or have we hit rock bottom?
