The Guardian, Wednesday 7 April 2004 02.

08 BST

Barcelona declared its opposition to bullfighting


yesterday, the first big Spanish city to take a decision
which animal rights campaigners welcomed as a step
towards getting it banned in at least part of the
country.
City councillors carried the motion in a secret ballot, a
spokesman said.
Although the vote has no practical effect, and
bullfights will continue at the Monumental bullring, it
will put pressure on the Catalan regional government
to ban what many people consider an emblematic
Spanish tradition.
