Only two details:
1.- A popular referendum cannot be illegal on a democracy where there is freedom of speech.
2.- The comment "Only 2,671 of the town's around 6,500 inhabitants voted" is clearly biased, 40% of participation in any election nowadays is a huge success.
I agree with Marc. This article has a very well manipulated use of words and it's purely biased.
By the way, would be fair and informative to also comment about those 60 far-right spanish nationalists, who belong tho the fascist Falange, dictator Franco's political wing....Would be worth it to read about what they are and their ideology and then you would understand why people wanted them out of Arenys.
Indeed, this article is incorrect. The referendum was not illegal.
The referendum was NOT banned.
Why don't you explain here that the Lawyer of the Spanish government was in the nineties candidate to the Fascist party of Franco the dictator himself?
The same party that organized a demonstration against the referendum.
A legal fascist party, in favor of totalitarian regimes and military opression, a party against democracy, a fascist party, allowed in a European state to demonstrate against a peaceful and democratic referendum that Spain tried to ban.
Shame on you and shame on the Spanish government that sends fascist lawyers against democracy to Catalonia.
All the best for Catalan friends on their path toward full independence od homeland! I'm from Montenegro, and many of Catalans were with us when we gained our freedom 3 years ago.
The referendum is one of the most important democratic instruments in each country, Spain includet.
