Spain: Massive protests after housing bills voted down
- Tens of thousands of people protested across Spain on Saturday to demand affordable housing.
- The protests come a day after the Spanish parliament narrowly voted down two emergency bills designed to support renters and prevent evictions.
- "It only proves that it is us the people who have to adapt to the political parties, and not the politicians to what the people want, and this can't go on like that," one 26-year-old protester in Madrid told the Reuters news agency.
