- Spain news update and it seems Morocco is set to become the market garden of Europe. Does this mean the end for the European farmer?

There was a story just the other day about Moroccan strawberries that had been watered with sewage - with the inevitable consequences. Morocco has even bigger water problems than Spain and lower health (pesticide, etc) standards. So, no, I don't want to see more food from Morocco, rather I want to see less food from Morocco in the Spanish food supply.
Same with Chinese produce. They don’t hold to standards.

agree
Didn't those feacally-contaminated strawberries come from Morocco? ... _not a great advert for 'Market-Garden Morocco'_
In use lithium is highly unpredictable. Some local authorities wont recycle.
Many of my older students are talking about this terrorist attack. The train originated in guadalajara where i live. 7 of my students had relatives on board 😢
Stuart the use of Moroccan lorry drivers may have a more sinister intent. Foreign drivers tend not to stage protests. With Spain's youth unemployment, it is "curious" that the government is not willing to pay to train them as lorry drivers. It makes no sense unless there are other motives. I hope the labor unions in Spain protest this attempt to undermine Spain's transportation. Cheers, Rob
Now i wish I learnt how to drive a truck/lorry
They can only train people who actually want to be lorry drivers/plumbers/electricians etc.
@@CatFisher947 I agree, they have to want to work. Maybe too much of a social "safety net" in Spain, I don't know.
Water supplies will determine who/what/where will be the market-garden of Europe.
Spain has water available in the north west. They just need to pipe it south.
There was a plan to channel excess water from the Ebro to Valencia, Murcia, Almería, etc.
But Catalan navel gazing politics were convenient to PSOE and the plan was canned in 2005.
No shortage in the UK. Just need a bit of sun.
Morocco is quietly being financially groomed for EU membership.
I think you'll find the clue is in the name,EU..
@@123seanaway Oh I see, just like the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation. Wisen up laddie!
Also, Israel, which is in Asia Minor, is in the rather ridiculous and political Eurovision Song Contest.😅
I would not be happy to have my Irisis scanned in exchange for Crypto Currency! Keep Cash! 😊
agree
Thanks for the updates. Always good.
Norway has found a stonking great phosphate seam near Stavanger, 70,000,000,000 tonnes and it could supply 50% of the World's needs, whilst Morocco currently has 43% of the World accessible phosphate deposits. Seems like Norway will undermine Morocco's advantages.
Thanks, as always, Stu.
Giving out your farming to a separate country is so open to control
Great as always Stu!
but the news recently reported strawberries from morocco tested for hepatitis?...british news..
yeah but they don't mention the use of roundup in Morocco.. we keep growing our own food!
A bad idea making Morroco the Eurpean food producer as their standards are not as stringent as Spanish as the latest news about strawberries from Morocco being infected with Hepatitis!
G'day Mate!
Not a crypto fan and don’t want my iris image stored in some random database; no scan for me. 👁️
Aumentarán los accidentes de camiones en España, conducidos por marroquies? 😮🤔
Los musulmanes no beben alcohol.....🤔🤔😐
Eso es lo que dicen. Luego la mayoría sí lo hacen (he trabajado en Túnez)
I wouldn't go down the crypto currency route ever,so no problem for me
No, i would not.
Hello Stu, You mentioned that you have permanent residence and renew every five years. I have permanent residence but need to renew every ten years. Stu
Mine was ten years, too. Perhaps it's where person origins?
Unless you have a Spanish passport you are not a permanent resident. In order to be permanent resident you need to change your domicile which is not easy you have to become a Spanish citizen and renounce your domicile of Origin. 14:47
I think you will find that a residence card or permit states: “residente con carácter permanente en España” without the need to become a Spanish citizen or renounce your original citizenship either. @@adrianpowell2526
Mil gracias por el video Stuart. Am I just being stupid or does not Spain have I high unemployment level. What's wrong with training people to drive hgv. Only a thought
End of what?
No I would not!
Hello all. In regards to “the market of…”, such positions hinge on water supply and rich soil as it that determines the growth. Truck and bus drivers from morocco because of a shortage? Is the field dominated by low pay? I would guess just like the late night restaurants and bars there are bad business practices that also go on. Immigrants will accept lower pay scales, but as they matriculate into society, they’ll realize a need for higher incomes too.
I don't think Morocco is the solution to anybody's problems.
Meaning I will not be scanned for crypto.
Workaway, for the Aussie gent who wants to do farm work in Spain
I remember the awful feel when I went to see my family.
Absolutely not.
Alrite Stuart im from the UK I’m a HGV driver do u think 🤔 I could get a job as a driver there in Spain
Join the queue behind eligible EU (and now Moroccan) HGV drivers.
No, I would not ever scan my eyes for cryptocurrency!😮
Nope amigo
Why should it surprise anybody. Spain has a massive problem with irrigation, sounds like a good move. Ignore the nonsense about contamination. Spanish farmers can therefore grow other crops that are so reliant on the weather.
Because Morocco gets a lot more rain than Spain... ?
Morocco is clearly bribing several politicians in the EU, and they are likely blackmailing PM Sánchez.
All this talk of environment and energy use and emissions, someone tell me how it makes more sense to haul food to Germany and France from Morocco instead of Spain.
@@Pepitogrillo7126does it ???
@@My_Secret_ArtSketchbookthere is a well known search engine, Google it's called. I heat it's popular
Well it's great that relations are good, there was an incident in my life where a Moroccan bus driver fell asleep, as long as there are rigourous checks.
Moroccan drivers operating in Spain will likely go through the same controls as patera arrivals, i.e. none
Ask anyone in the street in Spain what they think about Morocco. Better bring earplugs.
Probably during Ramadan
😂😂 no!
Hi Stuart. Don't think that crossing the land borders to France and Portugal by car goes unnoticed. The Spanish authorities can check your debit and credit card activities when outside Spain. You'll need to buy things in those countries and as soon as you complete a transaction the audit trail has begun.
The same applies to non-EU citizens who overstay their 90 day stay in Spain and non-resident EU citizens who overstay their 183 day stay.
We should never under estimate the extent to which Schengen area countries communicate with each other. If you play by the rules then there's nothing to worry about.
Stu, can’t they find out where you are via your mobile phone and vehicle licence plate ?
Exactly! Please read my comments here about debit and credit cards. 'Gran hermano' watches over us.
@@EurobazzWhich is why they want to eliminate/ban cash so they HAVE to be used.
@@CatFisher947The audit trail will be triggered when you withdraw cash from an ATM in PT or FR. Unless, of course, you want to take a large amount of cash (under €10,000) from Spain. This will then make the Spanish bank curious.
@@EurobazzUsing a card which defeats the purpose. I meant slowly building up a kitty on a weekly basis with small withdrawals at home. Anyway this is what a friend of mine does when he goes away on “business”. I have mentioned the phone downside to him but he reckons it needs a court order to delve into his records. Quite frankly, it’s not my problem.
@@CatFisher947 You mix with dodgy friends Cat.
No
Who in their right mind would want to work in Spain with their pathetically, low salaries.
Bad idea….very very bad idea
Did they ever catch the Madrid bombers?
18 found guilty..all but 4,I think, have finished their time and been deported back to Morocco.. the 4 still in won't get out until 2044 at the earliest..
In order to up the salaries, you need to create more wealth. To create more wealth, workers need to be more productive. There's a direct relationship between worker productivity and salary. When Spanish workers's productivity will reach that of other European countries, the salaries will follow. Politicians CAN NOT create wealth by simply mandating higher salaries. They can only do harm by doing this as workers whose salaries are higher than what they bring to the company will loose their jobs.
lose
Maybe the owners of businesses could reduce their profit taking and invest in their workers?
.
Politicians can reduce taxes by not spending money on crap. Politicians can reduce red tape. Politicians can work at promoting their own country instead of promoting Moroccan products
@@paulfreeman1778 The profit margin is usually pretty low in most businesses. This is quite a popular response to think that the greedy capitalist is taking everything and leaving pennies to the workers. If this is the case then why are not every employers taking as much as Spanish employers and leaving them with nit a whole lot? After all, greed has no limits and exists everywhere right? American workers get paid more than Spanish workers and are more capitalist and "almost socialist" France workers get paid more than Spanish workers. There's no correlation... Productivity is the key factor in wealth creation and salaries.
@@Pepitogrillo7126 Yep and a best thing that a government can do is provide a secure business environment with minimal but well enforced laws that protect property from violence, theft and fraud. They also need to enforce freely negociated contracts. Besides this, they need to get out of the way as they can do more harm than good.
It's a very bad idea! As the Muslim Moroccans could black mail Europe in the future, by cutting off their food supply!😢
You can thank the eu for everything that’s happening now , you all voted for this no wait we’ve had no vote on the future of europe !! Democracy at its finest 😡
No im not willing for iris scanning but you will be forced in the end so you can be controlled on your purchases and travel restrictions and eventually your whole existence because it won't be a life
Does anyone know what happens to our UK Pensions in 2024 if we move over to Spain? Are Pensions frozen?
No.
WHAT about people recieving social security in uk?
There are no social security payments paid over here as far as I'm aware, no pension credits or top ups. Nor winter fuel payments, etc., only the basics.
Speak with someone at the DWP to obtain the official version.
