Is Spain inflating the Catalonia souffle?
- kiliancs 12y agoIt seems to me that as things develop the articles in the international press become more accurate about this subject. Another one published to day by Bloomberg [1]. If you find the article interesting you might also want to know the detail of the latest poll [2] on what Catalans would vote next Sunday (I'm not including here null votes, absentees, etc: * "Do you want Catalonia to become a State?" - Yes: 64.2%; No: 19.7% * "In case you answered yes, do you want this State to be independent?" - Yes: 76.9%; No: 19.6% I would also like to highlight that the Yes wins in all age segments [3][4].

- kiliancs 12y agoThey have just published a Google Maps style photo of the massive September 11th 2014 protest that the article mentions: "The Catalan independence movement has also broken its own records for the largest entirely peaceful demonstrations in Europe. About 1.5 million people formed a human chain across Catalonia in 2013, and as many as 1.8 million - 23% of the population - formed a giant V (for "vote") across Barcelona in September, to demand the dret a decidir, or "right to decide", in an independence referendum." http://via2014.assemblea.cat/ortofoto/ http://via2014.assemblea.cat/ortofoto/
