Far-right uptick in Spain raises spectre of Franco 50 years after his death
A spike in support for Spain's far right is reviving memories of late dictator Francisco Franco and burnishing his legacy among disaffected young Spaniards, even as the left-wing government seeks to eradicate symbols of the fascist past.

It's a shame they don't demolish that gigantic monument that allows the far right to keep glorifying it, insulting the victims of the Francoist Repression during the Civil War and the dictatorship.
Siempre he defendido que la única salida democrática para Cuelgamuros es demoler el macromonumento fascista. El proyecto elegido para "resignificarlo" confirma mi temor. Insulto a las víctimas y regalo a la ultraderecha para que pueda desandar el camino en el futuro.
