西班牙两大工会号召11月11日全国总罢工，14年来首次联手
西班牙两大工会UGT与CCOO 10月7日星期三宣布，将于11月11日就住房问题举行全国总罢工。罢工将在11月29日提前大选前数周举行，日期已由两工会商定，仍需当日晚些时候与其他工会会议正式确认。这将是西班牙两大工会14年来首次联合支持总罢工。
罢工是87岁马德里老人被驱逐事件引发的一系列示威的最新一波。活动人士在首都主要广场扎营要求解决住房危机；议会上周否决限制驱逐与租金压力的法令后，桑切斯宣布提前大选。
西班牙银行估计，全国住房缺口约75万套，到2028年将增至100万套以上。随着购房负担加重，租赁需求激增：西班牙青年理事会数据称，平均月租1176欧元，约相当于一名年轻人平均月薪的98.7%。
桑切斯正试图把政治叙事从休达移民危机处理与涉及社会党及其家人的腐败案件，转向他认为能动员选民的住房议题；罢工声势将成为竞选期的重要变量。
Spanish Unions Call General Strike for November 11 Over Housing, Weeks Before Snap Election
Spain's two largest unions, UGT and CCOO, announced on Wednesday, October 7, a nationwide general strike over housing for November 11, a few weeks before the November 29 snap election. The date was agreed by both unions and was to be formally ratified with other unions later that day. It will be the first general strike jointly backed by the two largest unions in 14 years.
The strike is the latest protest provoked by the eviction of an 87-year-old woman in Madrid, with activists camping on a main square in the capital demanding solutions to the housing crisis. Parliament's rejection of anti-eviction decrees last week prompted Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez to call the early election.
The Bank of Spain estimates a housing deficit of about 750,000 homes, set to grow to more than a million by 2028. Average rent of 1,176 euros a month equals about 98.7% of a young person's average monthly salary, according to the Youth Council of Spain.
Sanchez is seeking to shift the narrative from the Ceuta migrant crisis and corruption cases involving his party and family to housing; the strike's scale will be a key campaign variable.
