"Yes Junts pel and have asserted CUP forecasts and have used its absolute majority for the Parliament approve the conclusions of the study commission of the constitutional process, in an environment of strong division. The camera, with the opposition of all the opposition parties and consummates its challenge to the Constitutional Court with a document in which the steps of the "disengagement" of Catalonia are set, among which includes a "unilateral mechanism democratic exercise "that the independence bloc understood that it can be a referendum.

And the inclusion in the agenda has provoked a bitter confrontation between the president of the Parliament, Carme Forcadell, and representatives of opposition groups. Before starting the discussion of the content, spokesmen have engaged in a bitter legal dispute for lack of legitimacy. Most interventions focused on the opposition argued that the Constitutional car is bigger than the rules of the House legal status. Inés Arrimadas, leader of Citizens, said that the findings are a "clear development" 9-N and vote is "have fun that by the Arc de Triomphe". "Being president is to assume its responsibilities and not just collect 120,000 euros a year."

Forcadell has twice asked the deputies if they were aware of the order of the High Court and in both cases have said yes. "The plenum is sovereign", has alleged Forcadell. "We just ordered off the debate". Citizens, PP and PSC have opposed and later, during the final vote, have avoided participate. Yes that's Pot voted against.

Once in the debate on the conclusions from Citizens, Inés Arrimadas, it denounced the document, addressing the independence bloc, "only what you will approve. You are disconnected from Catalonia, most of the Catalans. " Miquel Iceta, president of the socialist group, said a "radical rejection" of the findings and concluded that, recalling the opinion of the TC, the only goal is to "provoke confrontation between the Parliament and the Constitutional" and "put the institutions out of the law. The PSC then it would not participate in the vote announced.

Yes that's Catalonia Pot has placed the adoption of conclusions as the prologue to the question of confidence that Carles Puigdemont, as announced this morning, will face on 28 September. His spokesman, Joan Coscubiela, has opposed the conclusions seek agreement with CUP ( "fireworks in Catalonia") while the Partit Demòcrata pact with the PP in Madrid to have own group. It has also been reported that approve "bombastic statements that do not meet" and denounced that were eventually discarded the conclusions proposed by his group.

Xavier García Albiol, PP, stressed that what is happening in the House is a "coup" against the Constitutional and compared to the methods used in Venezuela Nicolas Maduro. "Separatists Gentlemen: This is an undemocratic act and can not be outside the rule of law," he said the popular has warned that the decision was not "going to go free." "The rule of law act: it will take more or less but it will. And I suspect that will be less than more, "he warned. And it's riveting: "They are putting the Catalan institutions ridiculous and seriously risking self-government".

Gabriela Serra, deputy of the CUP, said that their training recognizes that the people are the legal maximum and stated that the findings put their trust in the democratic mandate of the 27-S and the declaration of the independence process 9-N, already it consecrated the camera can not depend neither the State nor the Constitutional Court. "Not that I want to jump: is that this Parliament is skipped," he said. "We do not threaten: they had to know that we are not afraid. And without fear we will succeed. "

The approval of the conclusions paves the way for Carles Puigdemont exceeds the Sept. 28 issue of confidence which will be submitted after failing in its attempt to pass a budget for this year. The document adopted today fulfills the expectations of the anticapitalist, which are scheduled to be in the coming days with the Catalan president to ensure continuity of motion and sovereigns process."
