The book gathers 57 articles published during 2023 in the digital newspaper "Sevillainfo", grouped under 3 headings related to domestic, judicial and foreign policy. The first one describes the tormented development of the political situation in Spain, from the defeat of Pedro Sánchez in the autonomic and municipal elections, to the formation of a "Frankenstein-2" government -despite having also lost the general elections-, thanks to the support of the pro-independence parties, in exchange for the granting of an amnesty to the perpetrators of the 2017 coup d'état in Catalonia. In the judicial section, the process followed by the Socialist Government for the adoption of an Amnesty Law, which is unconstitutional, unjust and immoral, is analyzed. The third section deals with important foreign policy issues such as the continuity of Russia's aggression against Ukraine, the war between the Palestinian terrorist militia Hamas and Israel, the relations between Spain and Morocco, and between the European Union and Great Britain, the Ibero-American Summit, and the situation in Northern Ireland and Nagorno-Karabakh. The balance of events during the year is quite dismaying.
