      1. Spanish police raid offices in Catalonia supposedly in search of evidence of misuse of public funds on #1Oct. The surprise raid was predicted, as Friday sees the publication of results of a major corruption case. This is a preemptive attempt to own tomorrow's newspaper headlines. @MonDiari/999541025004802048

      Apparently the media were issued with the details of the surprise raid yesterday and even a list of who would be arrested. The media arrived on the scene this morning *before* the police did. Reports coming in now of a dozen arrests.

    The Partido Popular corruption sentence is announced - a damning 1700 page document. Party condemned for corruption, Rajoy's former treasurer given 33 years in prison. But don't expect any resignations or sackings. #Gurtel
