PP and the Catalan issue
The Partido Popular (PP) are having trouble with their leader in Catalonia, Josep Piqué. Ever since he said that he could support aspects of l'Estatut, the PP leadership have been at a loss over how to deal with him. Their decision: do nothing.
Perhaps they have grasped that it doesn't matter who they put into the Catalan job… they're relatively powerless anyway. For the PP, it's the Spain outside of Catalonia that is focused on. Only there will people buy the manure they peddle (e.g. the absurd claims about the Generalitat and Catalá floating about: let me say again - teachers are not being hunted for speaking Spanish on this side of the border!).
