Cultural agents from Porto support the camping and repudiate the chamber
Cultural agents in Porto express support for the Acampadas movement, condemning police violence and criticizing local and national authorities for their inaction on housing issues. They demand recognition of the movement's legitimacy and call for an end to police repression. The letter, signed by over 400 individuals, emphasizes the need for a clear political stance to protect fundamental rights and address the housing crisis. The protests, which began on October 10, have spread to Lisbon and other cities, leading to clashes with police and numerous arrests. The agents outline nine key demands for housing policy reform, including reversing eviction laws and increasing public housing availability.
