“Throughout [the day] we have carried out a coordinated action in the cities of Barcelona, Valencia and Palma to denounce the tourist model of the Catalan countries,” reads a translated statement posted to Arran’s Facebook page. “We have stopped 3 tourist buses to denounce that massive tourism is sustained at the expense of our misery, that of the working class, forced from its neighborhoods by the disgraceful rise of rents and condemned to work precarious jobs with terrible salaries.”

“It is not tourismphobia, it is a class struggle to survive!” the post concluded.

The bus attack is the latest of several demonstrations carried out by Arran, which argues that large-scale tourism initiatives harm the landscape, force people from their neighborhoods, and “eat up the coastline,” The Express reported.
