"An institutional dictatorship". Just one of the themes of a protest in favour of Catalan and against Balearic Government's reforms which will remove (if by no means totally) a requirement to speak Catalan to a high level in the public sector. The protest in Palma this evening (25 March) attracted thousands who demonstrated against what is also said to be an attack on the civil rights of natives of the Balearic Islands.
Organisers put the number of demonstrators at 50,000, the police at 20,000.
