Spanish mayor condemned for 'fascist' market at school The market included stalls selling flags and ensignia from General Francisco Franco's Nationalists, dating from the Spanish Civil War of 1936-39, as well as fascist propaganda. Swastikas and other Nazi memorabilia, including SS Totenkopf emblems, were also on offer. Photographs taken at the market clearly showed the offensive items on display. Some parents complained that their children had come home with fascist era paraphernalia. The market, held in the gym at the state-funded Principes de Asturias high school in Quijorna last Saturday, formed part of a military display in the small municipality of 3,000 residents to commemorate a 1937 battle for the town, which was held by Republican forces. A day after the market the mayor paid homage to those "who fell for God and Spain" at a ceremony attended by twenty residents, some of whom, according to local reports, wore the blue shirts and red berets of the Falange - the fascist party of the Spanish dictator. The local socialist party has made a formal complaint over the market. "The town hall made a public space available where, not only Franco-era symbols were for sale but Nazi insignia, which in Germany is illegal and constitutes a crime," said Azucena Concejo, the only socialist councillor. Eduardo Torres- Dulce, Spain's state attorney general, announced on Wednesday that the incident would be investigated.
