"We don't owe! We won't pay!"



While the International Red Cross has called for help, for another 300,000 Spaniards - the first time ever here (in its “Now, more than ever” campaign – see video above) another new social/political movement has started up.

As a part of the “globalnoise” collective of organisations, the Citizen Debt Audit Platform (or “Plataforma Auditoría Ciudadana de la Deuda,” - PACD) met yesterday with members of the German parliament and is promoting a week of activities against debt.

This will include a protest/demonstration under the banner of “We don’t owe! We won’t pay..!” tomorrow (Saturday) at 6pm in Barcelona’s Plaça Catalunya.
