La huelga general estudiantil convocada por el Sindicat d’Estudiants, y a la que también se han sumado los compañeros del SEPC y Universitats per la República, ha sido un éxito rotundo. En estos dos días la huelga ha ido creciendo hasta hacerse masiva en los Institutos y en la mayoría de las universidades de Catalunya, mientras en la manifestación de hoy en Barcelona hemos participado más de 40.000 estudiantes que hemos abarrotado el centro de la ciudad y llenado la Plaza de Sant Jaume, y miles más nos hemos manifestado en otras capitales y ciudades. El éxito de la convocatoria del Sindicat d’Estudiants, haciendo frente a una persecución vergonzosa por parte de la derecha y de sus medios de comunicación, cobra aún más relieve en estos momentos. Frente a la ofensiva de la reacción españolista, del Estado y del gobierno central, y sus amenazas de descargar un golpe brutal contra nuestros derechos democráticos, el Sindicat d’Estudiants, junto a la juventud catalana y las organizaciones que hoy se han movilizado, hemos demostrado que no vamos a retroceder en la defensa de la libertad y del derecho a decidir del pueblo de Catalunya.
