Tens of thousands of people took to the streets of Catalonia's capital Barcelona on Sunday to express their opposition to any declaration of independence from Spain hydro flask wide mouth pink sale , showing how divided the region is on the issue.


The protesters rallied in central Barcelona, waving Spanish and Catalan flags and banners saying "Catalonia is Spain" and "Together we are stronger," as politicians on both sides hardened their positions in the country's worst political crisis for decades.


Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy said on Saturday he would not rule out removing Catalonia's government and calling a fresh local election if it claimed independence, as well as suspending the region's existing autonomous status.

Losing Catalonia is almost unthinkable for the Spanish government.

Catalonia is also the top destination for foreign tourists, attracting about a quarter of Spain's total.
