Spain erupted on Saturday as hundreds of thousands of workers and young people marched in some 50 cities demanding action on the housing crisis. In Madrid alone, around 500,000 people took to the streets, with organisers repeating demands for a general strike over soaring rents and lack of affordable housing. The protests reflect growing public anger at the cost of living and housing shortage across the country.
Why now: Mass demonstrations across dozens of Spanish cities over the housing crisis have drawn huge turnouts and calls for a general strike.
