Dignity Marches In Spain Surround Parliaments
[IMG][/IMG]
Collective Marches with integrated platforms today under the banner of ‘Dignity’ have surrounded the headquarters of several regional parliaments to protest against cuts in public services, inequality and poverty that lead many citizens to despair.

Following the success of the marches that converged on Madrid on 22nd of March, the organizers have now explained that by surrounding regional parliaments they wanted to express that “the people are sovereign” and “remain vigilant” to the decisions taken in its name.

Marches were held this morning in Seville, Vitoria, Santiago de Compostela, Zaragoza, Valladolid and Toledo.
