El adelanto electoral no frena las movilizaciones: miles de personas llaman en Barcelona a la huelga general por la vivienda

Thousands of protesters marched through the center of Barcelona on October 5 to demand a general strike focused on the housing crisis. Organized by housing unions, the demonstration aimed to pressure political leaders into addressing rising costs and lack of access to affordable housing. The organizers have proposed that the general strike take place this November.

The scale of the protest exceeded initial expectations from the Sindicato de Inquilinas, forcing authorities to alter the planned route of the march. The event highlights ongoing public dissatisfaction with housing policy, persisting despite recent political developments such as the announcement of early elections.
