The kingdom of animal metaphors is very evocative as one imagines Oriol Junqueras with the head of the chief of the CNI framed in his office
In Spanish politics there is an obsession with valuing everything in heads, as if the entire government is a macro farm and they periodically have to cut heads, from small to large, until one day, who knows when, their San Martín arrives at the leg black and the one who comes after the herd. The kingdom of animal metaphors is very evocative because you imagine Oriol Junqueras with the head of the chief of the CNI framed in his office, between the crucifix, the sacred map of Saint Jordi and the estelada, which it displays to visitors with the pride of the hunter with the overwhelming antlers of a stuffed deer. Paz Esteban’s head has already fallen and perhaps that of Margarita Robles, the Botswana elephant of the independence safaris, will soon be rolling.
I was deeply moved by Miriam Nogueras, the spokeswoman for Junts in Congress, who a few days ago stood in front of the microphone as a Flemish woman and exclaimed “we want all heads!”, which may have meant to sound like Robespierre, but in reality it is a very grandmotherly expression in the fishmonger and kitchen use. I was not surprised by the tone or the urgency because Rigoberta Bandini had already explained to us that Catalan mothers are known for making broth in oceanic quantities and Miriam saw that her fridge was empty and she panicked, with several gastronomic facts that you never know. My problem is not the Pegasus or the stock, not even the CNI, but rather that I used to suck on the heads of the shrimp and now I don’t dare because they scared me with boron, cadmium and other heavy metals. Oh Miriam, those heads were worth it and not those of the government!
