No, they voted the very same referendum, but non-binding, in 2014 without problems. But this time they wanted to make it binding despite warnings from the gov that it's illegal as per the Spanish constitution.
- smsm42 9y agoIf it's illegal per Spanish constitution, they can't make it binding. That's like I hold a vote in my house that I won't pay taxes anymore. Not paying taxes is illegal, so the vote result is of no legal consequence, but if police would show up and beat me up for having the vote, that would still be a gross violation of my rights. I think Spanish government shot itself in the foot massively here.
