THE Former leader of ‘La Resistencia Balear’, Víctor Sánchez is back and is calling for a demonstration in Palma on Thursday September  2.
Sánchez will be remembered as the leader and instigator of a number of large demonstrations earlier this year against the policies of the Balearic Government and the way in which the hospitality industry on Mallorca was being treated.
Having been hit with a number of fines, he decided that he could no longer continue his activities and ‘retired’ from public demonstration and looked to try to change things via politics.
Now with some relaxation of rules concerning public gatherings and with the apparent support of the El Foro Baleares de la Solidaridad y del Progreso organisation (which has previously demanded the resignation of Balearic President, Francina Armengol) he believes that the time is ripe for another public demonstration.
It is due to start at 10.30am on September 2 at the Consolat de la Mar building in Palma which is the seat of the Presidency to complain about the continued restrictions applied to the hospitality industry.
In his Facebook page, Sánchez explains “The supreme powers have plans for us and their legal teams do not stop working to restrict our rights and freedoms.
“After almost two years of closures of nightlife we have seen an increase of 1000 per cent in illegal parties, large bottles, bacchanalia, etc., causing the incidence to rise, but instead of blaming the decision-maker, they blame the hospitality industry, cutting the number of diners, capacity, smoking and much more.
“Now they want to impose a health certificate so that people can even enter our businesses. Enough is enough!”
