Housing
Porto enters 9th day of housing protests; Lisbon holds popular assembly
Protest camps for housing rights continue in Porto and have expanded to the Rossio square in Lisbon. A national demonstration for housing policy changes, including an end to evictions and rent increases, has been called for 14 November.
Why it matters
While this is a civil movement and not a change to the law, it highlights ongoing social and political pressure regarding housing policy that may lead to legislative changes; if you live in Porto or Lisbon, expect continued protest activity and potential disruptions in city centers.ObservadorRead original ↗
