Dear Craig,
Are you referring to [quote]That may require his to employ another
stereotypical skill attributed to some Galicians – of doing one thing
while persuading people he is actually doing the opposite.[/quote]
?
As if so, that is a (british) conservative style of politician and not
a typical Gallegan personality attribute (otherwise known as 'lying')
as such.
Now if you look at the next quote [quote]"We are not going to choose
the best, so we might as well choose the least worst...," another
woman at a rally in northern La Coruña told television station La
Sexta.[/quote], 'this' is typically a Galician personal way of thinking.
Tremlett's views are just that, his views. He even mitigates this in
his own piece of writing there.
I speak as a Gallegan.
