The Spanish government’s attempts to stop @junqueras , @KRLS , and @toni_comin from taking their seats in the European Parliament is a clear violation of their political rights and a disregard for the over 2 million EU citizens that voted for them

Very disingenuous from the Indo. I submitted an observation, 𝐧𝐨𝐭 an objection, to the planning, the first line of which was “I am not opposed to social and affordable or other housing 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐞”, which was conveniently left out of the article.
