BORRIANA, Spain — Like many municipalities throughout the Spanish state, the local council in the town of Borriana, in the Valencian province of Castellò, swung to the right in the mayoral elections of April 28th. And one of the first actions of the new municipal leadership, formed by the right-wing People’s Party (PP) and far-right Vox, has been to cancel the municipal library’s subscription to five Catalan-language magazines.
Since the municipal decision became known on Wednesday, it has raised controversy due to its “catalanphobic.”. “Alberto Núñez Feijóo must “disavow the madman” who vetoed these publications,” said Salvador Illa the leader of the Catalan Socialists.
