Hundreds of thousands of pro-refugee protesters marched through the street of Barcelona on Saturday, calling for the Spanish government to allow those coming from warzones into the country. Marching under the banner of "No more excuses, refugees welcome", the protesters accused the government of not exerting enough effort to help the victims of wars in countries such as Syria and Iraq, demanding that institutions take necessary measures to allow more refugees into the country. The march remained peaceful and demonstrators repeated anti-European slogans, waving banners that read "we want to host" and "Catalonia, place of refugees". Authorities estimated the numbers of demonstrators at 160,000, while the organisers of the demonstration put the numbers at at least 300,000 participants. The demonstration was organised by an independent group that calls itself 'Casa nostra, casa vostra' (Our house is your house).
