Spanish communists join nationwide anti-eviction protests: “Maricarmen is not an isolated case”

The Communist Party of the Workers of Spain (PCTE) and the Collectives of Young Communists (CJC) have joined the nationwide housing protests sparked by the eviction of 87-year-old Maricarmen, forcibly removed on September 23 from the Madrid home where she had lived for more than 70 years. Her eviction triggered protests across Spain and further mobilizations over the increasingly acute housing question.
