Majority of protesters in Porto vote to continue protest despite PSP appeal

Protesters occupying Praça D. João I in Porto and Praça D. Pedro IV in Lisbon have voted to maintain their encampments despite warnings from the PSP that the protests have become illegal, citing a 1974 decree-law that limits public demonstrations to 00:30. The movement, which is protesting housing conditions, has extended its pre-notice for demonstrations until 31 December, while the PSP maintains that camping in public squares violates the law.
