I Am Spanish

German, French and Dutch governments have shown their support to the Spanish government in their defense of the constitutional order.

Meanwhile, British government is silent, and opposition leader Corbyn looks outraged by police keeping law and order. Not to mention how most British media deal with the issue and the sympathy they show with Catalonian independence.

It looks like the UK wants to pubish the EU using Spain as the boxing bag.

I don't forget, many Spaniards don't either, and hope our government do not either. Sadly, the latter is hard to happen with our coward weak government.

Edit: British government has shown their support too. Thank you Mrs.May. FU Mr. Corbyn.

I don't think it is anything to do with the EU. If there is sympathy it is because of how the UK has dealt with Scottish independence recently. The actions of the Catalan government were unconstitutional, but the actions of the Spanish government in using police force to close polling stations were undemocratic and disproportionate 😟

@TammieBear Those people were doing something illegal. Also Catalonian police have a reputation of being very brute.

Catalonian police in 2011. I wish all the media who talk so much about the brutal Spanish police would show these images too
