Spain announces Madrid's colonial rule in Catalonia

The Catalonia's autonomy is ended. Recovered when Franco died, it will be suspended under the Franco heirs. We must remember that the Spanish ruling Popular Party was founded by a Franco's minister, Manuel Fraga. His direct heir, Mariano Rajoy, is now the Spanish PM who has decided to destroy all that has been done in Catalan self-government last 40 years. It's a coup to a Democratic Government. And as it will be resisted.

Spanish Premier Rajoy has outlined hardhitting plans for direct rule in Catalonia :

- Democratic Catalan Government leaders removed from office, including premier Carles Puigdemont,

Catalan democratic parliament stripped of its power. It cannot decide even its president. Every Catalan law could be vetoed in 30 days for the Spanish Government. Formally although the Catalan parliament will not be dissolved immediately, its functions will be limited to “avoid measures contrary to the Constitution.”

- Madrid direct rule the roles of the Catalan Ministers who had been dismissed would be handled by ministries and officials from Madrid.

Mr Rajoy also confirmed that regional elections would be called, within a period of six months, or “as soon as institutional normality is restored”. Without a clear date it is obvious this is a new lie from Rajoy. Elections can be posponed definitively.

All of these measures  are to be carried out under the unprecedented auspices of Article 155 of the Constitution. This article has never been applied and was written with a lower idea but is been misused by a party who obtained 8,49 % of the votes in last Catalan elections. If a party with 8,49 % of the votes rules against the will of the people... is it Democracy?
