As countless thousands face eviction due to Covid unemployment the Catalan Govt. passed a law which required large property holders to offer a cheaper rental to families in vulnerable situations.

Now, as usual with progressive laws, the Constitutional Court, controlled by the Far Right oligarchy, has cancelled the new law.

As happens wherever they go, Vox’s electoral campaign events in Catalonia are repeatedly boycotted by the anti-fascist and popular resistance.

This time it was in Vic (Barcelona) where eggs and flour were thrown at them and they could not even carry out the meeting they had planned, before having to hastily leave protected by the Mossos de Esquadra.

Since early afternoon this Saturday, the central Plaça Major de Vic has been filled with antifascist stars and flags to boycott the Vox campaign act. The protesters have been able to prevent the act, but there have been some incidents with the Mossos de Esquadra that, once again, have protected the extreme rightists against popular rejection.

KRAS, a section of anarchist international the IWA, has come out swinging against the false choice of a right-wing bigot or a murderous autocrat posed by recent protests — in the following statement the group explains why.

Pic: The golden toilet brush has been used as a symbol by pro-Navalny protesters against corruption under Putin

We, anarchists and anarcho-syndicalists, consider it completely unacceptable for ourselves to take any part in political shows organized by supporters of the right-wing populist Navalny, who is sadly “famous” for his openly nationalist, anti-immigrant, anti-Caucasian and anti-Semitic statements.

To march in the ranks of the demonstrations they convened would mean – regardless of any excuses or “explanations” – to turn into the back of one of the political gangs waging a dirty and unprincipled struggle for power.

We, as anarchists, believe that both the current authoritarian regime in the Kremlin, which became the successor of Yeltsin’s neoliberal clique, and the opposing group headed by Navalny, which is now seeking to seize the leadership of the entire mass of disaffected, are just the spokesmen for the interests of the country’s true rulers – the dominant Oligarchy and its “Iron Heel”.
