  It was mostly payed by the catalan population and this is the reason why the Spanish "judges" have to lie so much to jail Catalan politicians for misuse of public funds. Anyway the point is we won by 90% and if we did another legal referendum we would win again and that is why the spaniards will never allow a legal referendum.

      If you bothered to look at the facts you would see that more people voted in Catalonia's referendum of independence that for a general election. In Catalonia, we are all willing to do another referendum, a legal one, but we all know that Spain will never allow it because the Yes would win again. Catalonia is forced to be under spanish rule and they will do anything to keep it this way: jailing catalan politicians, beating protesters, making up stories a la Goebbels, torturing people or killing activists.

Again, this "referendum" was a scam designed to have an excuse to push their agenda further. Was totalitarism travestied as democracy carefully designed to steal 47 millions of spaniards from their constitutional rigths

When only people who want independence vote on the referendum, obviously you are going to get such results. If the people opposing independence don't consider the referendum to be legitimate (since you know, it is illegal and against the constitution, and not recognized by the central government), then they are not going to vote on it. And hence the question, why doesn't the Spanish government allow it? Because it is an issue that affects all Spanish citizens, therefore, we should all have a vote on the matter.
