Leave a comment

Yellow ribbons, used as the symbol of support for jailed opposition politicians in the Spanish region of Catalonia, have been removed overnight by anti-independence activists in the city of Girona. 80 people, wearing white suits and masks, gathered up the ribbons into rubbish sacks. The group call themselves ‘Brigades To Clean Yellow Ribbons & To Free Catalonia’. A spokesperson told us they wanted to show that public spaces should stay neutral.
