Zoals ik reeds vroeger zei;

... Catalans seeking a secession vote are inspired by what they see happening in Britain.
“The UK is willing to let Scotland vote and Catalonia is refused that right by the Spanish,”
says Liz Castro, an author and publisher who divides her time between Massachusetts and Barcelona.
“Catalans look to the Scotland-UK question with a sense of envy and admiration, they’re constantly talking about the ‘quality of the democracy’ there.
Personally, I wonder if it’s a bit romanticized and idealized.
But, the truth is that [people in Scotland] all will vote on September 18th, and Catalans are still debating what we will do when they tell us we can’t.”
“If Yes won in Scotland, the Catalan independence movement would become stronger”, says Eul?*lia Solé-i-Tom?*s, a political scientist from Barcelona.
“Spain would be terrified and would increase the pressure on Catalonia as well as strongly emphasise the refusal of the referendum."
Wees maar gerust dat ze Laken en Namen ook angstig volgen
wat er in Schotland en Catalonië staat te gebeuren.
