• 10-N. The Government assumes that the cooling of the economy will also affect Spain

The socialist government in office has chosen the month of October, a few weeks after the general elections of November 10, to challenge before the Constitutional Court independentist resolutions of the July Parliament. The Council of Ministers has resolved at its meeting today to present two incidents of sentence execution against a text approved by the Catalan Chamber at the July 25 session called "for a real Catalonia" that addresses matters declared unconstitutional. The incidental claims refer to a section in which the Parliament ratifies in "the defense of the right of self-determination as an instrument of access to the sovereignty of the whole of the people of Catalonia" and another in which "it is reaffirmed in the reproof of Felipe VI ", explained the spokeswoman for the Executive, Isabel Celaá.

The decision marries perfectly with the hardening of the discourse against independence, which has occurred in the Government and, especially in the president and candidate Pedro Sánchez, in recent weeks at a time when the PSOE seeks to improve its electoral results with the vote of moderate voters who on April 28 bet on Citizens. The Government already speaks openly of applying the National Security law or even 155 if after knowing the ruling of the Supreme by the so-called 'procés' the legality is breached. The Minister of Agriculture, Luis Planas, who also has the responsibilities of Territorial Policy, has justified the delay of two months in the decision to present the two incidents of sentence in which it requires "an internal legal preparation" and in which the Government has determined that "this was the right time." "It is a sufficiently rigorous and serious issue so that the Council has taken its time," he defended.

The minister has assured that with these references "judgments of the TC are breached" and therefore "the declaration of nullity and its immediate suspension" is requested. In addition, the court is requested to notify the president of the Parliament, Roger Torrent, the secretary general and the rest of the members of the Board both of the judgments cited and the decision that the Constitutional now adopts of its obligation to abstain or to carry out any action tending to comply "with the contested texts and with" its duty to paralyze or prevent any legal or material initiative "that entails avoiding the Constitutional decisions on these matters.
