AGP Executive Report
Last update: 8 hours agoHousing Protests: Tens of thousands of people flooded Madrid and dozens of Spanish cities on Saturday, demanding action on the housing crisis after parliament rejected emergency renter-protection measures. Organisers cite up to 500,000 participants, while the government puts Madrid at around 70,000. The trigger was the eviction of 87-year-old Maricarmen in Retiro, and the debate has now reignited calls for a general strike and even snap elections. Policy Fallout: The rejected decrees included eviction bans for vulnerable tenants, rent-freeze extensions, and tighter rules for short-term rentals—opposed by PP, Vox and Junts—pushing the government into a fresh political standoff. Streaming & Media: JustWatch launched JustWatch TV in Spain (beta), letting users watch free ad-supported titles, rent individually, or go ad-free via subscription, all inside the existing JustWatch apps and site. Sports & Culture: Real Madrid urged UEFA to wrap up the Negreira case “with utmost urgency,” while Spain also saw major weather disruption from severe flooding in Madrigueras.
