The Delegation opens the door to ending the Sol camp
The Delegation believes that the message about housing has already reached society and that changes in the camp make it possible to consider its end. The email mentions the withdrawal of the Sindicato de Inquilinas de Madrid and the presence of homeless people.
The removal of the Sindicato de Inquilinas de Madrid encampment, which organised the action, and the identification of homeless people are among the reasons cited by the Delegación del Gobierno for reconsidering the gathering. The institution maintains that, after a reasonable period, the protest message has likely reached society.
On Monday, the Delegación sent an email to the legal advisory committee of the housing encampment at Puerta del Sol. In the message, it stated that "it could be legitimate to bring it to an end" and recalled that from the outset it had defended the right to assemble and demonstrate.
Francisco Martín sent the email while he was still the central government's representative in the region; his dismissal was approved at the Consejo de Ministros on Tuesday. Pilar Trinidad, his successor, shares this view, according to sources from the Delegación del Gobierno in Madrid. The information was first reported by Vozpópuli and confirmed to EFE by those sources.
