"Not only man lives votes”
Serious political and social problems of government, the regime and the Spanish State, outputs require background. or they not share some political arguments of the accused, it is evident that in each day of “Juicio Process” Political prisoners have dismantled the arguments of lawyers and state prosecutors, who they are determined to show that there was violence where there was none. Mistakes and misrepresentations made manifest in the Supreme Court are an indicator that they are not following the search for truth but to justify a sentence written in advance: rebellion, sedition and embezzlement. You can observe yourself in TV transmission. The first sessions have enabled us to confirm what we have been saying: is a show trial. In response, Not surprisingly, King Philip VI has blessed the Catalan anti Inquisition.
On the bench are the separatists leaders, but the trial is not only them but the Catalan people, for the “we very serious” made to mobilize peacefully and conduct a referendum for the Republic. Do not think it ends here: It is also an attack on the democratic rights of workers and the people of the Spanish State. Today Catalans suffer, but if imposed, will advance on workers' struggles, dissident expressions, the feminist movement, student and, definitely, on those that think politically different and mobilize to defend their rights and ideals. Arbitrary application of anti-terrorism law, gag law, the brutal sentence for violators “Manada” and violent evictions are precedents in this regard. Think about it.
or they not share some political arguments of the accused, it is evident that in each day of “Juicio Process” Political prisoners have dismantled the arguments of lawyers and state prosecutors, who they are determined to show that there was violence where there was none.
For these reasons, We consider an error that there are people who consider themselves left, democratic, or progressive Republicans who are looking the other way before the existence of political prisoners and punishment Referendum. We get tired of not assert that there is no independent justice until there is no profound changes, among them, that judges are not appointed by democratically elected political power but by popular vote Have you noticed that failures always favor the economic and political power shift?
Nonetheless, Catalan people are still standing with dignity. Even with reprisals Spanish State to sow fear, with leaders accused Procés, hesitations and maneuvers of the major parties; mobilization is permanent. The 16F over two hundred thousand people have expressed in Barcelona. And the 21F, in response to the call of the Inter CSC, It has finalized a successful general strike, with own claims of the working class, for freedom of political prisoners and self-determination. The strike was strong in workplaces and shops, students down to the train tracks, CDR cut highways and avenues. The CSC described the day as "The second biggest strike in recent 15 years just behind the 3-O ".
With the ANC, Omnium, CDRs, CUP and other organizations promoting, there were mass demonstrations in Barcelona, Tarragona, Lleida, in the inland villages and a historic landmark in Girona, where there were seventy thousand people claiming. “The streets are always our” It is not just a slogan but the living expression of a strong desire for freedom and the Republic. We share the views expressed by leaders of the CUP: "The conquest of rights has always come from disobedience and general strike". At the by, We condemn the repressive actions of the Mossos d'Esquadra.
Even with reprisals Spanish State to sow fear, with leaders accused Procés, hesitations and maneuvers of the major parties; mobilization is permanent.
Thus they pass the first days since President Pedro Sanchez convene early general elections for the 28 of April, shortly before the elections to the European Parliament. There is great uncertainty about the future. Regrettably, except for Catalunya, It has not been given a defining emergence of the mass movement on the most important political issues to impose their own agenda. So things, the bourgeoisie and its servants try to channel the crisis through elections and, even with difficulties, They have some leeway and political parts.
Since the PSOE ousted the PP from power by the motion of censure Mariano Rajoy, Pedro Sanchez's policy is to remain in power as long as possible to get his party of electoral debacles that has suffered. Because, He did not hesitate to make all kinds of promises in the social and political grounds, which he did not meet any of the most important. The election dispute is now open, PSOE, We can, PP, VOX citizens and are in full campaign to win votes and defend the monarchical-parliamentary regime embodied by the Franco regime in the Constitution of '78.
There are already polls. One is that done by the CIS (Center for Sociological Research), at times questioned as prone to PSOE. Beyond the relativity of surveys, the data
indicate that the PSOE would first, the PP would fall to fourth place losing votes with VOX (extreme right), Cs grow and we would remain stable.
We insist on a reflection that exceeds the electoral. freedoms are cut, unresolved social problems caused by the crisis of the capitalist economy, '78 the regime has for decades without offering progressive solutions to the great majority, the previous government left power in advance and the current was not elected by popular vote, there are strikes and demonstrations of millions of Catalans who do not feel Spanish Do not you have the impression that the problems will not be solved only by changing the president nor with cooking patches?
…It is essential to build a new political alternative, comprehensive, anticapitalist, in which we can merge different sectors, different traditions left, progressive and republican, with the strength of youth social organizations, workers and feminists.
The alternation of bipartisanship PP-PSOE has only brought adjustment, cut corruption and freedoms. The prospect of eventual right growth and ultra Cs and Vox, only deepen and exacerbate the current situation. a fundamental change that can only show a Constituent Assembly Free and Sovereign necessary, in which deputies elected by proportional representation to discuss and decide on all political and social issues in question. It is a big task to mobilize unitarily to materialize.
We can has filed its most rebellious edges and has adapted the regime from their positions and abandoning mobilization as an essential tool. Disappointment and criticism of many militants and supporters is evident, So every time appear far from being a credible alternative. And right recycled approaches the vacant space left by the fall of both PP, as disillusionment caused by the center-PSOE and we. For this, It is essential to build a new political alternative, comprehensive, anticapitalist, in which we can merge different sectors, different traditions left, progressive and republican, with the strength of youth social organizations, workers and feminists.
Since we promote this policy SOL, let's do it jointly organized. In the immediate, We appeal to the broadest unity of action by the acquittal of the Catalan political prisoners. We also encourage a strong Feminist Strike the 8M, date women again demonstrated their strength as protagonists of the Fourth World Feminist Wave. Our companions Boards and to the left in the Spanish State and in countries where it is present Anticapitalist Network, will continue to drive a large international mobilization on the Day of Working Women. Patriarchy and capitalism fall together.
