Author of immortal lyrics from the Cádiz Carnival, more than 40 groups behind him and a premature death due to illness that occurred in May 2019 at just 51 years old.

The bosses of Plus Ultra, on how to get to the Government: “Delcy should call Ábalos. Or someone with ZP”

It was in March 2020, with the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, when the directors of Plus Ultra considered the need to “reach aid” and, at the same time, knock on the appropriate doors at a “political level” to achieve it.

Collboni’s final ‘sprint’ in Barcelona: works, international events and entrenched strikes

One year before the elections, the mayor of Barcelona, ​​Jaume Collboni, is sending two messages: the “right to stay in the city” and that the city “will be the electoral grave of the extreme right” for its defense of public rights and services.
