Barcelona’s PP group has asked mayor Jaume Collboni to act over Can Vies, the social centre in Sants that the party says is occupied.
Daniel Sirera, the PP leader at Barcelona City Council, said the mayor should take “immediate and definitive” measures. The party’s call is aimed at the city council in Barcelona, not at another authority.
Can Vies has long been a sensitive issue in Sants and across Barcelona. For readers following local politics and neighbourhood issues, this is another example of the pressure on the council to respond to disputes over public space and occupation.
