So they did it! I wonder, what would Madrid's next step be?

They have voted today in the Senate to directly rule Catalonia according to the Article 155 of the Spanish Constitution.

But that sounds very nice on paper but unless the civil society and public workers follow that they can't just put two million people in jail.

So at the end it will all be on the peoples hands which it is good to remember that they have always been peaceful even when in the October Referendum they got beaten up for exercicing a democratic right which is to vote.

The PP party has thought more about their party interests than in the entire spanish population, having zero future prespective nor plans,but what can you expect of Francos corrupt heirs.
