Antoni Bassas' analysis: 'Via Laietana and the most progressive government in history'

Three current issues of the day. Mazón is already a political corpse, booed in the streets and at events, which he has now, as a desperate measure of self-defense, shown the capture of a security camera from the emergency centre which determines that, in fact, he arrived at around eight thirty in the evening on the day of the DANA, as a way of avoiding responsibility for not having sent the alert earlier by mobile phone because he was not there. It doesn't matter, since the day before yesterday the judge clearly determined that the majority of the 227 dead did not receive any official alert that would probably have saved them, all those who had anything to do with this decision are well trapped, and the head of the trapped is Mazón.

Two:

The European Court of Human Rights was to decide The Court of Human Rights has been able to determine whether the freedom of expression and political rights of the members of the Parliament had been violated when the Constitutional Court prohibited the processing of resolution proposals on self-determination and the monarchy in the autumn of 2019, and has endorsed the decisions of the high court. The ECHR recognises that the rights of the parliamentarians were limited, but not violated. According to the European magistrates, the decision of the TC was "proportionate" considering that the Constitutional Court has the right, "in extreme circumstances", to veto resolutions that go against the Magna Carta in order to protect it. This is bad news for our rights: you can vote for parties that want self-determination and are against the monarchy but then these parties cannot vote on anything in this sense, because Strasbourg says that the parliamentary vote leaves a Constitution unprotected and threatens territorial integrity. Therefore, the Constitution and territorial integrity have a problem of social legitimation in a certain part of the territory of the State. And this lack of legitimacy is a political problem that Spain continues to seek to resolve by giving it a legal response. And although those flowers of 2017 and 2019 are now withered and who knows if they will ever return, the problem remains unresolved.

And a news item that tells many things. The Spanish governmentwill keep the National Police station on Via Layetana open Barcelona. Minister Félix Bolaños said yesterday that it is a "very important, centrally located, necessary police station for the organisation of public safety". Very important in a country like ours, where public safety is not the responsibility of the National Police but of the Mossos d'Esquadra. However, the building will be "resignified" in July. They will put up an explanatory plaque. We're throwing a piece into the pot. Hundreds of detainees and tortured, many of them for being Catalanists, will be compensated with an explanatory plaque. No school visits, even if our children and grandchildren had a memory of the dictatorship. And this makes it "the most progressive government in history", because, after all, they can be socialists or communists, but the State cannot be touched.

Good morning.
