The civil servant who blew the whistle on massive corruption in Spain, and paid the price for it

Read about Ana Garrido here. She exposed a massive corruption network linked to Spain’s ruling Popular Party, in which companies would provide services for the party – events and so on – for free, and then receive public contracts in return.

Over the last three and a half years, this has been shockingly in your face.
