In the midst of deep recession and massive unemployment, with a higher than expected deficit and a general strike round the corner, Spain - despite reforms and deep budget cuts - is struggling to emerge from the crisis and is causing new concern within the euro area.
Scotland, like Catalonia or the self-proclaimed Padania in Italy, is now talking openly of its independence. For these regions the European ideal is a political argument, even if a place in the European Union would not necessarily be a good thing for them.
When “milleurista” was coined in 2005 - a term denoting someone living on €1000 per month - it highlighted the plight of young workers with insecure, low-paid jobs. Today, with one out of two young people on the dole, becoming a “milleurista” has become something to aspire to.

Fleeing unemployment, hundreds of Spanish are migrating to idealised Norway in search of work. Few have had much luck. Many have found only unemployment, cold and despair. Another chapter in the great crisis afflicting Spain.
Poor and thus blameworthy: amid the ongoing Greek crisis, negative judgements on Southern Europeans appear to be gaining ground in Northern Europe.
