SPAIN'S KING JUAN CARLOS TO ABDICATE

SPAIN'S KING JUAN CARLOS TO ABDICATE

What do you know about our king and his son, the future king of Spain (Felipe VI)?

Can you send me all the pieces of news you can find as this may be a very suitable topic for next year's Selectivity exam?

Nowadays there are a lot of problems such us the economic crisis, unemployment, poverty... But, these days people only talk about one thing the abdication of the king Juan Carlos I of Spain. However, why do we need a king?. Do we live in the Middle Ages? Does someone ask us what we want republic or monarchy?

On the one hand, we have to think that the king is very old and his son ought to be king one day. But, do all the kings abdicate at this age? I don't think so, because the English Queen is older than the Spanish king and she still hasn't abdicated. Another thing to take into account is that he's ill so he needs to rest at home.

However, nobody has asked us if we want a king or not, a lot of women think that his son is handsome, but they don't think that some people want a republic in Spain. I don't think that many people don't want to have a king , but at least they must ask us.

All in all, there are so many problems nowadays that people pay attention to other things which are more important.
