What the memory bill is all about and why are some political parties so against it?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Michael,
Although there are many countries that have tried to bury their history in the way that Spain has buried Francoism, I was shocked when my Spanish teacher told me that, even when it was added to the school curriculum, pupils were never taught about Franco - schools always made sure that they ran out of time before the end of term!
One of the best books I've read on Franco is the biography by a British author, Paul Preston:

Kind regards,
Kim
