New Year – 2022 in quotes and a look ahead to 2023

Bon any nou! Guifré Jordan and Gerard Escaich Folch join Lorcan Doherty to see what 2023 has in store in Catalonia, from politics and the economy to society, culture and sport. Catalans are set to vote in at least two elections, museums will mark significant anniversaries of Picasso, Miró and Tàpies, and FC Barcelona are to up sticks from the Camp Nou to the Olympic Stadium for a season. We also look back at the year that was with some choice quotes that sum up 2022. This week's Catalan phrase is 'qui dia passa, any empeny'. Literally 'who passes a day, pushes a year', it means to take a laissez-faire attitude, to leave problems for another day.
