Ring A Ring A Roses

The girls seemed to be playing this physically in the shot, all Catalonia adults politically! Today is the national day holiday in Catalonia and the independents were out in force to demonstrate their wish to create their own republic. Strength in numbers is always impressive and intimidating (if you are on the other side). The remainers do not have the same response to any call out they make . . . although their numbers are slightly higher, according to the recent and last general election.

The whole of Avda Pedralbes was lined with coaches that brought people in from the country side where support of independence clearly holds the majority. In Barcelona, there is a significant majority for staying. Think democratic support in New York and you are going in the right direction.

I got home on a scoot e-bike as there was no way through in a taxi. All seemed pretty peaceable, mainly because they were all wearing the pink t-shirts of the leavers.
