The Spanish president has described the agreement between the CDC and ERC as “bad” and “against the law”. Mariano Rajoy also said that the 27-S election is not a plebiscite and warned that “no Spanish government will ever authorise the break-up of the national sovereignty”. The Catalan Government spokesman, Francesc Homs, replied that the Spanish president is actually contributing to the ‘No’ campaign with his comments. Homs criticised, however, the fact that Rajoy “has never said that he will respect the result of the vote, whatever it is”.

Mas, Junqueras and the three main civil society organisations in Catalonia have signed a roadmap stating that following a victory of the ‘Yes’ parties in the next Catalan election, a new Constitution will be drafted and then voted on in a binding referendum. If Catalans vote ‘Yes’ to the proposed Constitution, independence will be declared no later than 2017.
