If the mayor Ada Colau believed that the proclamation of the leader of Òmnium, Jordi Cuixart at the parties of the Gràcia neighborhood of Barcelona, ​​would reconcile her with the independentisto, she saw how it was the focus of the whistles of the public. To such an extent that Cuixart himself had to calm down and remind attendees of the three years and eight months he spent in prison are enough to consider him an authorized voice: "We are part of the same shared struggles. Not listening is the same as He does not want to make Spain with us, out of fear. We are all part of the same people and we will not allow ourselves to be divided. Long live Gràcia and long live free Catalonia. "

Despite that intervention, the whistles to Colau continued despite defining Cuixart as a "man of peace" and asking to move forward "without rancor and promoting agreements and love." Before, Cuixart made a speech with a review of the various groups of social activists of all kinds in the district, from access to housing, fighting poverty and ending racism since "there is nothing more universal than local struggles" . That is why the leader of Òmnium recalled that members of this group already practiced "civil disobedience" in the 60s in Gràca when giving Catalan classes to teachers and that is why he encouraged "to think individually about the reasons for one to be free, to Do it again, so as not to give up victory, freedom. We will never give up doing it again, reasons are not lacking,we must recover the streets ".

After asking the administration for more money in culture to combat "fascism, intolerance and racism", Cuixart thanked the neighborhood for the support during his three years and eight months in prison, such as the rallies or the applause he received when he left his home to return to jail after a leave, and wanted to remember the "exiles", like Anna Gabriel from the CUP, since "it will not be a major party until they return home." He also vindicated the inclusive nature of Gràcia and assured that "Catalonia would not be understood without the Catalan rumba or the fan."

To this pregó they decided not to attend municipal representatives of Ciudadanos, PP and Barcelona Pel Canvi. Ada Colau assured that "it is perfectly normal and legitimate to have discrepancies with the town criers, democracy is diverse and it is impossible for everyone to always agree on everything; in a popular culture party where we have to be especially careful with the freedom of expression, all political forces are fully invited and we would like them to participate. " However, those attending the proclamation also whistled at her.

The leader of Cs in the Barcelona City Council, Luz Guilarte, assured that Colau and the PSC have "allowed many people from Gràcia to feel excluded with the proclamation of Jordi Cuixart", although "despite all of them, the Gràcia festivities are and they will belong to everyone, think how they think. "

In a statement, the PP has denounced "the politicization of the proclamation of the Festa Major de Gràcia" and regretted the decision of Colay and the Socialists "to stop representing more than half of the people of Barcelona." "The figure of Cuixart, condemned for sedition and later pardoned, does not have the majority consensus of the citizenship and does not respond to the criteria of unity and concord in which this type of celebration should be framed. The popular ones even consider that the election of Cuixart is a payment of favors from the mayor Ada Colau to the pro-independence groups for their support of the state budgets. The PP also criticizes the passivity of the PSC, which has not raised its voice against the decision of Barcelona En Comú to choose Cuixart as a town crier, "said PP.
