General strike over housing brings out tens of thousands in Spain Tens of thousands of protesters marched across Spain on Wednesday during a general strike over housing affordability and purchasing power just weeks before an early general election. Unions reported a significant response in some sectors in Spain's first nationwide 24-hour stoppage since 2012, but business leaders played down the participation. Braving heavy rain, tens of thousands of demonstrators marched through central Madrid carrying placards shaped like houses and chanting "We have no home" as they called for more affordable housing.
