Spain to legalise about 300,000 undocumented immigrants per year (www.reuters.com)

The reform shortens and simplifies legal and administrative procedures for work and residence permits, allowing migrants to register either as self-employed or salaried workers, and provides them with additional labour rights guarantees.

Spain about to anger a whole lot of rightwing politicians in Europe with this move.

Is Spain a good place to go?

Yes and no. Unemployment is high, wages are low, and in the major cities renting is tough, same as most major cities at the moment though I guess. If you can find work, somewhere to live, and make an effort with the language then I’d say yes, it’s a great place to live.
