With very likely negative consequences. The vote is unconstitutional and intended to disturb the Spanish state. Puigdemonte is a populist playing with the people of Catalonia, as he is well-aware of the impossibility of this project, but hey it put him in charge. Remember also he is leading a minority government. I think a lot of people here ignore the seriousness of the matter and have very naive views on separatists. That said, the unemployed youth of Catalonia (37%) probably find the whole thing very attractive.
