Real Democracy Now! Yesterday Later I forgot about the Fair to be held in my city and took the local train to attend the demonstration in Cádiz platform for citizens unhappy with the policy, called "Real Democracy Now!"
The demonstration took place at the same time in fifty English cities, as have some English newspapers today, attended by thousands of citizens, being Madrid and Barcelona, \u200b\u200bthe greatest number of participants gathered.
In held in Cadiz I figured that was attended by just over a thousand people, therefore, a good eye Cubero, we occupied an area on the street 80 meters long and six wide, which gives us 480 square meters, and placing two people per square meter in some places and three other out that much tighter about 1000 people.
Home of the demonstration in the Plaza of Spain
Up: Step by Port Avenue. Below: Step by Puertas de Tierra
At the door of the Government Commission
The demonstration took two hours to cover the miles between Spain Square and Puerta de Tierra.
El Diario de Cádiz is silent in its digital version of what happened yesterday in the city, and other information from those in other cities in Andalusia. Curious, no? As or newspaper dean of the province, has adapted to all changes of government that have occurred over the past century and so far in this, as does the chameleon , protected animal that survives in the Bay. Now it protect the political system in force; thirty-five years ago bore the yoke and arrows on the cover. The fact is that if the hard copy does not say anything, is depriving its readers of the chronicle of a protest to the newspaper can not ignore, as the demonstration passed in front of their offices and in balconies were a group of reporters watching, they were booed.
For specific information as happened yesterday in Spain:

Returning to the event, I am ashamed that in a provincial town that holds the sad record European unemployment 180 000 unemployed, only a thousand people take to the streets to demand a change in the priorities of our leaders and politicians in general, when in 2005 and 2009 filled the stadium Carranza and Cadiz streets shouting and horns playing for hours and broke source of the Gates of Cadiz to celebrate the rise of the local team to the second division. Where was yesterday 30% of unemployed? Where are the hundreds of families who come daily to Caritas to help? Where those who fill the dining rooms?
The truth is that I I never believed that figure. If so, would businesses without customers, families without food ... Have already exploited. The economy, added to unemployment, says it has money to celebrate Carnival, to be partners Cádiz CF fill the bars and enjoy Canal Plus and the latest generation mobile phones.
thing is that leaving the street or not, the situation is unsustainable: it has lost a generation well prepared in vocational and university education, whose members, in addition to qualifications, leading dozens of workshops behind her, and kept with the help of parents no job, no contributions for pension rights and no future in sight.
Apparently this is only the beginning, a test. soon, and do not know if it happy or not, it will be proof that the problems persist, followed by more protests. The platform " Real Democracy Now" came in April at the University, does not need unions accomplices of the government to call people, and is not willing to back down.
