Catalonian referendum

[JWBlueman]

And The EU sits on its hands whilst one of its member states sends militarised law enforcement firing plastic bullets against its lawful old age citizens.

And many of he British ‘left’ are desperate to stay part of his fascistic , banker and big business cabal.

But...but the EU has kept the peace for the last 1000 years or so we're told ;)

Why do they want independence anyway ?

It takes a very special **** to hit a women with a baton

Spanish police have quite a few of those special kinds of cunts.

300 years ago they lost a war and now they want a recount and a revised idea of what a victory is.

Probably :)

Idiot.

Does it look to you like the OAP women in those photos were up to no good and not behaving themselves.

How anyone can look at the footage of militarised police attacking peaceful voters and believe the police are in the right, I just don’t fucking know.

And so what if the vote is “illegal”. The holocaust was legal. Apartheid was legal. Slavery was legal. Legality is about power and not justice.

can't follow their own rules, so how do they expect to be a legitimate country?

RE: The police, you know what you're going to get, just like in America. It's not favouring them in the slightest, it's knowing what they're going to do to you if you give them the chance and accepting it's better to not get involved.

Just the fact old people are getting duffed up is enough for me to be with them and against whoever is doing the duffing up. If it were the hoodie wearing maskie loons i'd have thought Meh, but knocking pensioners about doesn't look and isn't good.

no - granny bashing has never been popular nor a vote winner thats for sure

How does your yellow streak run vertical or horizontal? I believe typically they tend to run down but have never seen one.

Do as you are told, peasent!

Precisely the point mate; everyone has the right to hold a referendum on membership of a region or union. The Spanish Government can argue the point against holding one, but to be seen to use force to prevent it? As someone else stated the whole world is watching this; just because Catalonia may vote for independence it still does not grant them the power to have it. In essence the exercise is merely a 'statement of intent' that would mean the Spanish Government having to address the issue rather than bury their heads in the sand. Bleating 'it's unconstitutional' means nothing as they can be re-written, changed, adapted. Spain could lose a lot of international support by not addressing the Catalonians as we in the UK did with the Scottish Referendum.

They sit out of it to allow the 'national governments' take all the flak for their heavyhanded approach and they are seen as being diplomatic and non-interventional.
Of course this has been exposed with their Foreign Minister Dastis stating that "it runs counter to the goals and ideals of the European Union".

Ooops
