Mallorca housing strike row: Prohens attacks PSIB
Responsible for this content: Frank Menze
Mallorca, in the Balearic Islands, faces a general strike over access to housing on Wednesday: regional president Marga Prohens accuses the socialist PSIB of stoking tensions and using the walkout for political gain.
Prohens says the party has “little shame” in backing the strike and taking to the streets after eight years in government in Spain and the Balearic Islands. She also accuses it of treating Balearic citizens as fools.
Her remarks answer PSIB spokesman Iago Negueruela, who accused the conservative People’s Party and the Balearic regional government of failing to respect the right to strike and imposing minimum services.
