The Day of the pandemic: all against all

The independence movement was recklessly stubborn in celebrating the Diada in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic.

He ignored the thousands of infections and deaths that continue to be recorded daily in Catalonia to fulfill his annual appointment with street exaltation.

And, after risking public health - that of his own and others - he only managed to offer an image of decadence and demobilization.

Of desolate advance, fragmentation and internal confrontation.

A few weeks after the disqualification of

pushed secessionism into a new clash of unknown consequences between supporters of disobedience and those who are committed to abiding by Justice and calling elections with the utmost haste, the promoters of the procés were unable to clarify to the already very impatient pro-independence voter what is the plan to complete the still unfinished separatist process.

Almost 60,000 people gathered the ANC in 131 concentrations distributed throughout Catalonia, exceeding the 48,000 initially announced after admitting at the last minute several "self-organized" protests and not prevented by the Government of the Generalitat, which only participated in acts without an audience in order not to be able to be accused of expanding the epidemic in the event of a new outbreak, but that he arranged all the facilities for the main secessionist organization to organize its ninth consecutive Diada.

Diada that promoted and blessed.

On August 24, the Catalan Executive prohibited public and private meetings of more than 10 people due to the increase in Covid cases, but amended its own restriction within hours, after realizing that it was shooting itself in the foot by making it impossible to close commemoration of September 11.

Despite the favorable treatment received, the ANC was merciless with the Government and the pro-independence forces, to whom it has stopped showing the minimum respect expected among colleagues in the cause to go on to denounce their shame and press without compassion months before the elections .

Without the usual mass gathered before the stage, but with the always ready TV3 speaker broadcasting his words live,

demanded

of the secessionist formations "to close an aimless stage that already lasts too long."

«We cannot continue waiting for the agreement of the parties.

We are not a symbolic country with symbolic presidents and symbolic laws.

We are fed up with division and tactics.

Junqueras and Puigdemont, the patience of the people will not last forever.

We have to get going ”, threatened the president of the ANC, and then put on the table her recipe to complete the separation from the rest of Spain.

"Work to add more than 50% of the votes in the next elections and then respect the mandate of 1-O and declare independence."

"Do not be carried away by party interests.

If not, the citizenry will again take the lead.

This does not go against each other ”, had previously anticipated the vice president of Òmnium Cultural,

.

A war between three factions

But of course it goes against each other.

It goes from at least three sides.

That of lovers of one-sidedness is headed, with nuances, by the ANC, the CUP and JxCat.

Yesterday

demonstrated this

when he asked to face the next elections to the Parliament "with a rebellious character" and placed the confrontation as "an unavoidable duty".

“With authoritarian regimes you don't talk.

To save democracy it is necessary to defeat them ", proclaimed the fugitive in a message with an institutional vocation and broadcast from Belgium on the occasion of the Diada.

"But the confrontation is not improvised, it is prepared," warned the former president of the Generalitat to clarify to the ANC that promoting a new declaration of independence after the elections is not part of his immediate plans, despite the fact that secessionism reaps its first victory in votes in an election.

Milestone that some polls give as possible.

When the time comes, the CUP offers to defend the secession in the street.

The anti-system sabotaged the circulation of the AVE between Barcelona and Gerona, and tried to do the same in Lleida, resulting in the arrest of one of its councilors.

Nor did they forget their usual attacks on the Crown, burning a photograph of the Royal Family in the center of Barcelona;

Nor did the pandemic end that ritual always tolerated by the Mossos d'Esquadra.

Radicals burn a King doll.EFE

The second of the separatist factions, which make up ERC and Òmnium, exponents of a more sibylline independence movement, which is committed to negotiating the holding of a referendum agreed with the State, also defended their interests yesterday without imposing a date to reach said agreement while trusting in tie concessions that satisfy the impatience of his followers.

Yesterday Marta Rovira, the escaped secretary general of ERC, demanded from JxCat an answer "that does not subtract."

That is, he urged to agree on the date of the elections and avoid the spectacle of the encastillation in the Palau that Torra dreams of.

And a third group of sovereignists, the PNC and the PDeCAT, reappeared with renewed pride, already freed from the yoke of Puigdemont.

They promised to "seek the nationalist" centrality "Marta Pascal and David Bonvehí.

“A ship that sails aimlessly, without a route map and with commanders who give opposite directions ends up adrift and it is difficult to reach the desired port.

If everyone goes on their own, as happens now, no one will take themselves seriously ", warned Artur Mas, who, now enlisted in the ship of the moderates, decided to recover his voice and his passion for the seafaring metaphor to verify the irresolvable atomization of the independence.

The lethargic state in which he remains waiting to resolve his disputes at the polls.
