Spain’s Leader Pins Political Survival on Public Anger Over Housing Crisis

Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez is focusing on public outrage over the housing crisis to secure his political future ahead of next month’s election. The tragic eviction of an elderly woman who died in the aftermath has intensified public anger, making housing affordability a pivotal issue. This situation underscores the broader challenges Spain faces in addressing its housing crisis, which could significantly influence the election's outcome. Sánchez’s strategy hinges on channeling this public discontent into votes for his left-wing coalition.
