Overview
- The ANC published its Diada manifesto on September 2 under the slogan “Tenim més motius que mai,” calling for a massive turnout on September 11.
- It explicitly urges supporters to occupy institutions, target infrastructure and carry out organized non‑violent disobedience to force a political, institutional and social rupture.
- The text rejects negotiation with Madrid, labeling the amnesty a fraud, EU recognition of Catalan as smoke, the Rodalies transfer a joke and proposed financing reform a mockery.
- The group accuses Junts, ERC and the CUP of choosing normalization for seats, salaries and power shares, while depicting the Spanish state as oppressive and citing a €22 billion annual fiscal deficit.
- ANC leaders call to prepare a push stronger than 2017, with main Diada actions set for Barcelona, Tortosa and Girona, coinciding with a closed‑door Illa–Puigdemont meeting in Brussels reported by EL PAÍS.
