Referendum will go ahead as planned. Also coming up clashes erupt at a neo nazi rally in Sweden Police in gulf of berg detained dozens amid the violence that left several people injured. When. I met her welcome to the program tensions are rising as catalonia prepares to hold its independence referendum on sunday i want to thirty say that things are in place for the vote to go ahead but spains Central Government calls the ballot illegal and has sent thousands of Police Officers through the region to stop it the people of occupied many schools in catalonia for use as polling stations to try and ensure that the referendum can take place. Ahead of sundays planned independence votes the cavalry has well and truly arrived breaking cover after camping out on ships in the port around four thousand extra Police Officers have been deployed to catalonia assembled from across the country and sent with love from madrid. In the capital a show of spanish unity in a sea of red and yellow sending a message please lets stay together. The Spanish Government has declared the vote illegal and is making every effort to stop it from going ahead. We think. Its a mockery. In barcelona capital of catalonia the relationship status with spain is well lets just call it complicated there were clashes between supporters from both sides outside the Regional Government building on saturday emotions are running high yet if you ever. Come here because i think that it has been committed here in catalonia im in favor of democracy and respect the rule of law. Respect that. Local place has been tasked with shutting down polling stations and removing anyone occupying them a balancing act between duty to region and country. The Spanish Governments actions violate our rights people cant vote they cant express their opinion web pages have been closed its a complex situation. The fear is that the votes may well turn violent all those remaining in schools and other polling stations had been given an Early Morning ted lying to clear out. Journalists. In the catalan capital. People are gathering in the city center what has the atmosphere been like. Its had a good evening actually. That day atmosphere has been tense for some moments this is because there has been the march and the separatists against the record in nome and spanish carrying these these aspirants flags they were chanting b. s proscience has no guns and actually thats quite an uncommon sight here in barcelona you dont see that happening every day and they are so they have some very nice things they tried to hear of a big banner of belonging to the city hall which said more than ok and its funny and of course a many people like that in this house of course the stench on the right and those in the us so. What are we expecting tomorrow when Spanish Police they have orders to clear schools that dont want this as polling stations how are they going to make sure that that happens peacefully. The actually already yesterday and today during the day that the police they. Have been visiting a school and there was they found with the police they didnt try to evacuate they didnt try to seal them off and they just said that the people that they should be there now as the deadline given to the twenty six a. M. But if its in the companies who keep. I think they what we want to risk any kind of violence by trying to take people by source but this man and the sides to sand you know that its Honest Police forces and then the school actually provokes and kind of by them. I mean some of these scenes we saw today in the Center Barcelona were quite tense and catalans who are pro and not independent prospecting have become more vocal are we going to see this division persist after the referendum no matter which way it goes. Thats almost sure and youre right actually. That the all that youre doing the last years showed that that those pro and those against in the end mens wear more or less near fifty fifty but the days when thats weeks and mostly the last days every public demonstration public speech every public march was growing dependence on them today when these demonstrations happened i guess the independents and in this the pensioner roast and this shows how it has become so much of our lives in both senses both in against a long and its so and we think that along at between those pro and against that and then sure this is going to remain it will be up to politicians and or there are also tell you theres to try and reach it is the right and i want. All right were looking at some pictures now of the demonstrations which took place in madrid today sort of pro unity you know and independence demonstrations i mean how is paine going to react if this vote goes ahead and the catalogs vote to leave. So thats the one question i think if theyre all goes ahead even if even if only a few schools will win for sure and. Seeing the question and what will decide well the cuts on government and this about how to react and really that it did turn out and they did it in the which both might happen if it goes on peacefully and that is for the high turnout because the one side we are going to legitimize to maybe even the very best or at least trying to save. My position of course that is somebody took the. Ball and hes very this is that this organized member the winds will sail like they have won and theyre the old world isnt valued in his favor i would have to wait and see.
