Anyone who has seen a bullfight will have noticed the barreras (barriers) in the ring that provide refuge when the bull pursues banderilleros. They give rise to the phrase “ver los toros desde la barrera”, which means “to see the bulls from the barrier”. Some equivalent phrases in English are “to sit on the fence”; “to be an onlooker”; and “to sit on the sidelines”.
