The Continent’s housing crisis has gone from being a slow burn to a four-alarm fire — but some countries are handling it better than others.
One of Europe’s long-simmering political frustrations is suddenly boiling over.
From Lisbon to Łódź, voters are angry about the lack of affordable housing. Anti-immigrant riots broke out in Dublin last fall, fueled in part by claims that the Irish capital’s limited public housing was being given to foreigners. Meanwhile, in cities like Lisbon, Amsterdam and Milan, thousands of protesters have taken to the streets to denounce the lack of affordable homes.
In a poll ahead of last week’s far-right surge in the European Parliament election, the Continent’s mayors listed housing as one of the most important issues facing their constituencies.
100k hours and hotels is going to hit where exactly? And that 10-50 billion dollars of investment is funded by what exactly? Magical money printing machine?
The industry in Spain is worth $206.4 billion per year. Money would be found.
No one is going to loan an industry 20% of its yearly revenue.
I’m beginning to suspect you don’t have an mba.
You’re an idiot. You’re not going to build that much in 1 year.
If you did have that much work being done in Barcelona money would flood in from elsewhere also. Especially the EU.
Congrats you lose the argument by resorting to personal attacks.
I never said it would be built in a year so it would appear the idiot is you.
