That way, they could lead the process to Catalunya's independency without having to pact with other parties. However... PEOPLE DIDN'T QUITE THINK THAT WAY IT SEEMS.
Parties from the Oposition wanted to avoid him getting that, who if I may say, are the reason we are all so fucked up in Catalunya right now.
The damn people couldn't get their ideas right and vote for what was probably wrong on their minds but it was RIGHT for the common being of us all, and instead of voting CiU so that they could set us to what we want, they voted the other independency parties.
I for myself, would have voted another party, like "Esquerra" or "Solidaritat Catalana" instead a suposed party of the Oposition like CiU. However, during this years events with the "Partido Popular" leading Spain to its damn doom and specially fucking with us Catalans, CiU snapped it out and decided to do what was suposed to do many damn years ago!
They extended the hand and offered the people what they wanted if we gave them our support. BUT DAMN! The people instead rejected that hand and still voted their independent parties!
Now, we are more fucked then ever and the process is yet again almost unreachable to say so.
