Maricarmen's eviction: A lot of (political) vulture and little substance
El escándalo por el desahucio de Maricarmen solo es el preludio de la batalla política por la crisis de la vivienda antes de las elecciones. Sánchez tira de populismo para recuperar terreno. Leer
The eviction of Maricarmen has sparked a political battle over the housing crisis in Spain ahead of the general elections. The government, led by Pedro Sánchez, is using populist measures to regain ground, while the opposition, including Feijóo, is criticizing the government's approach. Maricarmen was evicted from her home in Madrid on Wednesday by 50 riot police, who were enforcing a court order related to laws passed by the Socialist Party under Felipe González.
The government's handling of the issue has been criticized for being hypocritical and for using the case to distract from other problems, including the housing crisis and immigration.
