Uh, as far as I understand Ferrovial is not a country, but a corporation. Anyway, it hurts to be considered “some second rate European nation” :confused: I´m proud of my country and I don´t see it as a second rate european nation nor as a super power. I don´t have problems with Vodafone having a big presence here in Spain, so I can´t see the problem with a spanish corp purchasing BAA stocks.

I quite agree, we’ve been the ‘United States of Europe’ in a business sense for quite some time now.
