    1. A repeated Spanish gov. point of rhetoric this week has been that the violence in Catalonia is unprecedented in Spain. The idea of insisting that this is worse than the Basque conflict in which 800 people died is to prepare the ground for an imposition of a kind of martial law. @altamiranoMLG/1188450851779727361
