Justin in Barcelona - Enable images to view
As the UK prepares itself for its most exciting election in years, the Spanish Prime Minister has come out trying to quash claims that Spain is next in line for an EU bail out.

Our poll this week asks if you think Spain will need help from the EU to cope with the enormous downturn in the Spanish economy. Have your say!

Next week we are launching a new competition where you can win a couple of flights with bmibaby. Watch out for that next week.

Anyway, enjoy this week's articles and remember to keep sending us your stories. Have a good week.

Saludos

Justin
