It s not a good time to organize a barbecue for Spain s ruling politicians.
In the past few days, the left-wing coalition government has been bickering over meat-eating. Consumer Affairs Minister Alberto Garzón from the hard-left Podemos party appeared to take the rest of the government by surprise when he launched a campaign called Less meat, more life, urging Spaniards to consume less meat for the sake of their health and the planet.
The campaign ignited a national debate about the impact of a carnivorous diet, and Socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez pithily slapped down his minister, saying: “A perfect steak, that’s unbeatable for me.”
