THE SECOND MOUNTAIN (opens the original)
Read excerpt
THE TRUTH IS SOMETIMES THE HARDEST PILL TO SWALLOW For years, Costa Campoamor has often been treated as politically predictable. Because a community that is assumed to be politically fragmented is easier to overlook than one that is organised, registered, voting and demanding evidence. But even political mobilisation is only part of the journey. We have talked throughout this series about the Two Mountains. Now it is time to remind ourselves exactly what they are. Because independence is not a f
ORIHUELA COSTA COULD BECOME THE LAND OF MILK AND HONEY — BUT WITH THAT COMES GREATER RESPONSIBILITY (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Many people talk about independence as though it is the destination. Winning a vote, securing legal approval, defining boundaries, agreeing finances and creating a new municipality would be a historic achievement. Investing fairly across every community. And never becoming the very thing we once criticised. Independence does not magically fix roads. It does not automatically improve schools.

ORIHUELA — THE MASTERS OF THE DARK ARTS? (opens the original)

If CLARO Had to Fight for the Votes. Then PIOC Must Be Ready to roll its sleeves up for 2027 There is an old saying in politics: never underestimate your opponent. And when it comes to Orihuela politics, I have said before that Orihuela are the masters of the dark arts. That does not mean we should accuse anybody of fixing an election. It means understanding the political battlefield, learning from history and never walking innocently into a contest believing everyone else will make life easy fo

Read excerpt
Yesterday I wrote that one of the biggest mountains PIOC must climb may not be Orihuela Ayuntamiento, the Generalitat Valenciana, the law or even the eventual fight for independence. It may be something much closer to home. The response was enormous, and many residents clearly recognised exactly what I was talking about. But today I want to move beyond opinions. Because the figures from the 2023 municipal election tell a story that Orihuela Costa needs to confront before we start getting carried
INDEPENDENCE WILL NOT BE WON WITH A PETITION — IT WILL BE WON AT THE BALLOT BOX (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I am probably putting my head on the political chopping block by writing this. I was a founder member of PIOC, and I remain firmly in favour of independence for Orihuela Costa. But believing in independence does not mean I have to believe every strategy proposed in its name is effective. Nor does it mean residents should be told that independence is just around the corner if only enough people sign a petition or attend a demonstration. Independence is a journey, and I believe it will take more t
