Zeci de mii de oameni au protestat la Lisabona din cauza scumpirilor și a crizei locuințelor

Tens of thousands protested in Lisbon against rising living costs and a housing crisis, pressuring the center-right government. Organized by CGTP, the demonstration highlighted the struggle of many to afford housing and daily expenses amid increasing rents and inflation. The protest follows social tensions, including the dismantling of a housing rights camp in Porto. Inflation reached 3.6% in September, exacerbated by rising food and fuel prices. Many residents, especially in urban areas, face severe housing affordability issues, with rents nearly doubling since 2017. The government claims to be addressing these concerns but faces growing public discontent.
