Apologies that this news is a little late. I’m currently in the UK for a funeral and flat clearing and have restricted access to a computer.
Happy 2nd Birthday DutchGalgoLobby on 4th April 2013
On April 4th, DutchGalgoLobby celebrates her 2nd birthday. In her relatively short existence, DutchGalgoLobby has achieved quite a lot. Dutch Politics are now well aware of the Galgo mistreatment in Spain and one of the parties even set up a resolution to ask the Dutch government to take action. Regretfully this resolution did not get enough votes to pass because they still think it is an internal Spanish problem, to be solved by Spain. (Subsidiarity principle)
Therefore we approached the European Parliament which is in progress but takes time. European parliament is rather sluggish!
In between we have organised several promotional actions such as publicity at local markets, publications in Spanish newspapers, placing our first billboard in Spain and recently our brand new billboard promotion.
Billboard promotion. It’s been live now for only a few days and quite a few squares have been turned, raising more than €100! Please take a look. Payment is easy through PayPal and turning a square costs only €1,95. When the whole billboard is filled and visible, DutchGalgoLobby will complement the amount and place the Billboard which then is revealed in Spain, probably in Murcia!

Cool idea! Just bought some squares. Can’t wait to see the whole thing finished…
