Sumar and the rest of the parliamentary left join forces to pressure the PSOE on the housing decree

The Spanish government is set to approve a package of measures in response to public outcry over the eviction of 87-year-old Maricarmen Abascal, who was forcibly removed from her home in central Madrid on Wednesday.
