Let the People decide.
“Separatist leaders have said that if they won in the election it would pave the way towards independence for Catalonia in 18 months.”
Aug 04th, 2015 - 05:33 pm - Link - Report abuse 0it seems these separatists leaders do not know that it is INCONSTITUCIONAL.
it would be as if girona wanted to be independent from catalunia.

I have spent a lot of time in Catalonia since I used to own a company there. I never met one Catalan that wanted to be part of Spain.

Aug 04th, 2015 - 09:12 pm - Link - Report abuse 0lol.
first, you have never been in catalunia in your whole life
second, you do not speak a word neither in spanish nor in catalán.
then, how the fuck can you know if they wanted to be part of spain?
there is no way.
most of the catalans want to be spanish.
as a little example, and although you dont even know 1 of them, we have:
pau and marc gasol, joan rosell, xavi hernández, gerard piqué, sergio busquets, carlés puyol, marc márquez, marc gené, tommy robredo, + 70% of the total population.
you dont even know where catalunia is located.
lol
9. My company was very close to the Loewe store on Paseo de Gracia and I had an amazing summer rental in Sitges overlooking the Mediterranean.
Aug 04th, 2015 - 10:12 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I dated a Catalan attorney/professor for awhile. Catalans are very vocal on their hatred and disdain for the Spanish. I forget what they called the people from Madrid but they hate them the most.
You'd know that if you've ever been around them.
i studied my whole master at the Institut d'Arquitectura Avançada de Catalunya.
Aug 04th, 2015 - 10:27 pm - Link - Report abuse 0so i spent 3 1/2 years there.
i know a lot more about them than you about yourself.
and the little difference between me and you is that i speak both spanish and catalán.
most of them consider themselves spanish.

If things get out of hand. The government can put article 155 of the constitution into action just like Great Britain did with Northern Ireland.!!!
Aug 05th, 2015 - 02:23 am - Link - Report abuse 0nobody is above the law:
The UK was brave enough to let Scotland vote on independence.
Aug 05th, 2015 - 11:17 am - Link - Report abuse 0Canada was brave enough to let Quebec vote on independence..... twice.
Seems Spain isn't confident enough to do the same.
I hope that Spain splits into many parts. It may help them forget about their ridiculous claims on Gibraltar.

WTF are you yapping on about?
The UK does not have a Constitution you twat, we have LAWS, which are adhered to, unlike Spain and the LatAm children.
so funny to read the posts of these ignoramuses...lol
Aug 05th, 2015 - 12:07 pm - Link - Report abuse 0it seems they confuse scotland with cataluña, no?
or quebec...LOL
lets see if you understand a thing: nothing is more important than the constitution.
not even the desires of this repugnant dwarf called mas.
most of all when his wishes are against of what the very catalans have decided.
“Respeto a la decisión del TC”
clearly your chronic ignorance of what happens in the rest of the world and your lack of knowledge of foreign languages, makes you a bunch of infradotados.
No confusion. They are all nations within multi-national states.

Really really stupid.
Not as stupid as those that can't tell the difference between your and you're...

On a “lighter note”, don't you just love the lips on Soraya Saenz de Santamaria?
Aug 05th, 2015 - 06:57 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I bet she could suck a golf ball through 50 foot of garden hose. Lucky husband!
Not too sure about the index finger though: could be a bit domineering.

Aug 05th, 2015 - 07:27 pm - Link - Report abuse 0no.
scotland is a nation
cataluña is a comunidad autónoma.
nothing to do with anything.
yankeeboy
why?
i love living here in shan ishidro.
of course i was going to come back here.
you confuse government with country, a typical error of the ignoramuses of this 4th class site
you dont know too much about argentina, im afraid.
voice
good one
christine
lol
Catalonia is a nation, you idiot.
Aug 05th, 2015 - 09:35 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Look up the definition.
Comunidad autónoma is a Spanish term for its legal status but that does not alter the fact it is a nation. The two can coexist.
Quebec is also a nation. That does not stop it being a province.
Scotland is a nation. It is also a country within the UK.
You confuse government with identity, a typical error of the ignoramuses of this 4th class site.
You don't know too much about anything, I'm afraid.
But I have never expected much from your Argentinean education. So you never fail to deliver.
But paulie isn't in Argentina. He is sleeping rough in Calais awaiting a chance to cling to the underside of a truck. Desperate to illegally enter his beloved England.

He just goes to the internet café to keep warm.
Hope it doesn't rain again tonight!
