Overnight attention stayed in New York, where Sánchez denounced “selfish, ignorant and cruel” leaders in a veiled attack on Trump and direct criticism of Netanyahu, defended multilateralism and proposed a Latin American woman to head the UN.
By morning focus returned to Retiro after the eviction of 87-year-old Maricarmen. Thousands marched in 12 cities, while El País reported she spent her first night homeless in hospital with severe exhaustion and the UN housing rapporteur said the judge should have halted the eviction. Ayuso invoked the law to blame Sánchez as the government blamed PP blockages, with data showing record foreclosures and 45 evictions a day.
The afternoon turned institutional, with the government resuming contacts with Junts and offering fiscal concessions to pass an anti-eviction decree on Tuesday under Sumar pressure to include expropriation, as Zapatero’s jewel case widened with PSOE criticism and his recusal of the appraiser.
