Trade unions are preparing for an unequal follow-up of the strike by territories, sectors and ages.

The power plants anticipate massive demonstrations and seek to halt activity, but foresee “asymmetric” support depending on the impact of the housing crisis and the conflict already underway

Trade unions are preparing for an unequal follow-up of the strike by territories, sectors and ages.

A general strike is set to take place in Spain on November 11, with expectations that it may not have the same impact as previous large-scale strikes. However, union representatives consulted for this article believe that even if the strike does not bring the country to a standstill, it can still be considered a success if it raises awareness about housing issues.

The strike is being organized from the ground up, with local committees and cooperation between union, social, and political organizations. In cities like Madrid and Barcelona, most unions, including CC OO, UGT, and the Sindicato de Inquilinas, are uniting for the strike, although some divisions have arisen in cities like Zaragoza, Granada, Valladolid, and Pamplona.
