3 | The investigation of a political corruption case known as ““Gürtel” has revealed more serious facts like the alleged under the table salaries given to some members of the Popular Party (PP) leadership [es], which currently rules Spain [“under the table” means an illegal salary that is not officially informed or regulated]. | Ahitana trangan-javatra lalindalina [matotra] kokoa tahaka ny filazana fa misy karama ambany latabatra omena ny mpikambana sasany ao amin'ny Antokom-Bahoaka (PP) [es] izay antoko mitondra ao Espaina, ny famotorana momba ny raharaha kolikoly politika fantatra amin'ny anarana hoe “”Gurtel. |
4 | The former treasurer of the PP, Luis Bárcenas, who up until a couple of weeks ago still had an office at the party's headquarters and was backed up by the leaders, is now being investigated for having a Swiss account with 22 million euros and for paying bonus salaries under the table [es] during long periods of time to important public offices. | Hadihadiana amin'ny fananana kaontim-bola 22 tapitrisa euros any Soisa sy amin'ny fandoavana tambin-karama ambany latabatra nandritra ny fotoana maro nitazonany andraiki-panjakana ambony, ankehitriny i Luis Barcenas, mpitahiry volan'ny Antokom-Bahoaka teo aloha, izay mbola nitana ny andraikiny tapa-bolana lasa izay ary nanana ny biraony tao amin'ny foiben'ny antoko sady notohanan'ny mpitarika tamin'izany fotoana izany. |
5 | It could turn out to be the most important corruption case in all Spanish history, and in spite of that, the implicated have denied all accusations, bragged about having transparent accounts, and are still asking the people to “adjust their budgets” due to the current crisis. | Ity no mety ho raharaha kolikoly goavana indrindra eo amin'ny tantaran'i Espaina, ary na dia teo aza izany, dia nandà ny fiampangana azy ireo, ary mbola nieboebo fa manana kaontim-bola madio, sy mangataka hatrany ny olona “hanitsy ny tetibolany” noho ny krizy mandalo. |
6 | To regain the citizens' trust and prove their innocence, members of the party have offered solutions like an internal audit and sworn income declarations [es] which have angered everyone even more. | Mba hahazoana indray ny fitokisan'ny olom-pirenena sy hanaporofona ny fahadiovany, dia nanome vahaolana toy famotopotorana ny fahazoam-bola sy ny filazana arahim-pianianana ny vola miditra ao aminy [es] ny mpikambana ao amin'ny antoko nefa vao maika nahatezitra ny vahoaka izany. |

12 | As it had already happened before, the police surrounded Génova street, where the party headquarters are located, but the massive amount of citizens that protested chanting “Quit Government”, “There it is, Ali Baba's cave” and “The president is a criminal.” | Tahaka izay efa nitranga teo aloha, nanodidina ny lalana Génova, izay toerana ahitana ny foiben'ny antoko, ny polisy, kanefa mbola maro ny nanohitra hatrany ny vahoaka tamin'ny fitanisana hoe “Miala ny governemanta”, “Ao, ao ny zohin'i Ali Baba” ary ny “Jiolahy ny Filoha” |

26 | @LivingInGreen: When we protest, we damage the image of Spain. | @LivingInGreen: Rehefa manao fihetsiketsehana isika, dia manimba ny endrik'i Espaina. |

31 | The post makes a call to the party members and employees, to the citizens with a bank account, and to administration and strategic industry bureaucrats to denounce irregularities and take on the streets to end the financial scandals that hurt the country so much. | Miantso ireo mpikambana ao amin'ny antoko ity lahatsoratra ity sy ireo mpiasa, miantso ireo olom-pirenena manana kaontim-bola any amin'ny banky, miantso ny mpitana biraon'ny orinasa stratejika sy any amin'ny asam-panjakana mba hiampanga ny tsy zava-tsy manjary sy hidina an-dalambe hampitsaharana ireo fanafintohinana ara-bola efa mandona mafy ny firenena. |
32 | It seems that this protest is already taking place since some mayors and party members have already presented their resignation and have defected the government [es]. | Toa efa mahazo vahana sahady ity fanoherana ity rehefa nametra-pialana sy niala tao amin'ny governemanta [es] ireo Ben'ny tanàna sy mpikambana sasany ao amin'ny antoko. |
33 | The blogger introduced the case as follows: | Naneho ny raharaha toy izao ny bilaogera: |
34 | Some of you are right-wing and some of us are leftists. | Ny sasany aminareo mpirona havia [ara-politika] ary ny sasany kosa havanana. |
35 | I hope that never changes: the tension among ideas and rigorous debate are the fundamental requirements for a society to move forward. | Manantena aho fa tsy hiova mihitsy: ny fifanenjanana ara-potokevitra sy ny adi-hevitra no fepetra voalohany ho an'ny fiaraha-monina mandroso. |
36 | But I think many of you would agree that the our rotten political system has reached its limit and that we can work together in this project. | Kanefa mino aho fa ny ankamaroanareo dia hanaiky fa efa tonga eo amin'ny fetrany ny fahalotoan'ny rafitra ara-politika ka afa-miara-miasa isika amin'ity tetikasa ity. |
