Barcelona passes motion to ban Franco foundation

Barcelona city coun­cil yes­ter­day ap­proved a mo­tion urg­ing Madrid to ban the Fran­cisco Franco Foun­da­tion. The pro­posal, which passed with votes from the BComú and PSC par­ties, was put for­ward after the or­gan­i­sa­tion de­fend­ing the legacy of the for­mer dic­ta­tor an­nounced its plans to open an of­fice in the Cata­lan cap­i­tal. The vote went ahead with­out the pro-in­de­pen­dence par­ties, after the local gov­ern­ment re­fused to ad­journ the ses­sion on ac­count of the protests against the visit by Span­ish gov­ern­ment min­is­ters.
