Madrid tenants' union appeals to UGT and CGTP for mobilization for Iberian general strike on November 11
The Madrid Tenants' Union has called for collaboration from Portuguese unions CGTP and UGT for a general strike on November 11. Pablo García Bachiller emphasized the need for unity in the fight for housing rights, stating that labor and housing demands should not be separated. He urged major unions to engage with grassroots movements. The strike, named 'Saramago' in honor of the Portuguese writer, is part of a broader European alliance for housing rights. The call for the strike follows a recent assembly in Lisbon, with eight Spanish unions already involved. This strike precedes Spain's legislative elections on November 29.
