Protesters gather in Barcelona after the Spanish parliament rejected the government's attempt to answer their complaints about a mounting housing crisis and mass anger over the eviction of 87-year-old Maricarmen Abascal in Madrid. The rejected housing bills contained a package of social and housing measures, including a ban on evictions of vulnerable tenants until 2030. Protesters said they would return to the streets across Spain and press on with their encampment in central Madrid. #barcelona #housing #protest #government #spain Keep up with the latest news from around the world: https://www.reuters.com/
