It is easy to share the principle that it is necessary a full stop in Spanish politics. And it is also easy to share that a democratic regeneration plan is needed. But all this only makes sense if it is to improve democracy, to make it stronger, strengthening its control mechanisms. For example, a regeneration plan to strengthen the Judiciary It should give more guarantees and more resources to the judges.

However, assuming that this plan only sought to make politics even more subject to the judiciary – which is an evil that the EU has been reproaching Spain for for years – the reform would only bring even more tension. And not exactly democratic regeneration. Let us trust that these five days bring progress instead of setbacks.
