Thousands protested in front of the Portuguese Parliament against rising rents, highlighting a worsening housing crisis. The protests coincided with budget discussions for 2027, as rental prices have doubled since 2017, outpacing wage growth. Young people are particularly affected, with recent demonstrations leading to police intervention and minor injuries. Protesters demanded the withdrawal of a bill that would facilitate evictions and remove rent caps. Similar protests have occurred in Spain and other European countries due to housing shortages and rising rents.
