It physically hurts me to actually defend Rajoy, but he always offered dialogue to Puigdemont as long as independence was off the table.

Looks like the separatist MPs signed a proper, actual UDI in a room inside Parliament. I guess that's the "suspended UDI".

The Spanish VP is going to make an address. That precludes anything substantial happening just yet (it would be Rajoy announcing it otherwise)

VP? I thought you had a monarchy? :hmm: Or is that the deputy PM or something?

This is getting sillier by the hour. Are they trying to get arrested? Are they hoping the police assaults Parliament or something? :huh:

Over here we don't call our PM PM. We call him Prez.

The Spanish Cabinet will meet tomorrow morning "to discuss the steps we'll undertake", according to the VP.

Damn Canadians are like the hobbits of this world, it can be on the brink of chaos and they'll still wish to discuss the niceties of their constitution and which obscure politician is do what,when and why.

I thought you were a hobbit. :unsure:

In case anyone was wondering, the BBC chick pronounced el Gran Queso Catalan's name Poochemont.

The far-left radical separatist party (CUP), says that they will debate leaving Parliament for the time being after the suspension of the UDI.

Separatists NGOs (which are hugely influential) asking Puigdemont that he sets a "limited time" for the suspension of the UDI.

Will see what happens. I think after today this is for Rajoy's to lose now. Which he perfectly can.

Ok, I did not know that.  That part was missing from the coverage.

Watching some Portuguese news channel, just noticed the Podemos talking head comparing Rajoy to Erdogan, using the slippery rope argument (we don't want Rajoy to behave/turn like Erdogan).  :lmfao:
Plus judging wise the suspended UDI by Carles.  :D

PS: worse than I thought
