In Mallorca, the progressive coalition ‘Acord de Progrés per Mallorca’, composed of PSIB-PSOE, Més per Mallorca, Sumar, and Esquerra Unida (EU), has announced a joint candidacy for the Spanish Senate elections on November 29. Led by Catalina Cladera and Francisco González, the group intends to defend regional interests such as housing, pensions, and language rights while countering right-wing movements. In Barcelona, Ada Colau, representing the Frente Amplio, has proposed a “pacto de Estado” (state pact) to address railway safety following an accident in Urda. Following meetings with railway unions, Colau suggested reunifying Renfe and ADIF into a single public operator. Her platform includes calls for infrastructure audits, increased staffing, higher funding for rail services, and a reversal of the outsourcing of essential maintenance. In Valencia, a housing rights protest in Plaza del Ayuntamiento has reached its one-month mark. Activists have established an indefinite encampment to demand a dialogue table with the Spanish government, the Valencian Council, and the Valencia City Council. This protest has created tension with local merchants, who seek the return of normalcy to prepare for the Christmas season. Valencia Mayor María José Catalá has requested a meeting with the Spanish Government Delegation in the Valencian Community to resolve the situation, while government delegate Roger Llanes stated that officials are studying the request. ## Timeline ### 2026-11-01: Political coalitions form in Mallorca and Barcelona Political groups in Mallorca have formed a joint Senate candidacy, while Ada Colau proposes reunifying Renfe and ADIF to improve Spanish railway safety and public trust. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/political-coalitions-form-in-mallorca-and-barcelona ### 2026-10-31: Valencia housing protest impacts Christmas preparations A month-long housing rights encampment in Valencia's Plaza del Ayuntamiento is clashing with local merchants' efforts to prepare for the Christmas season and install holiday decorations. 7 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/ada-colau-proposes-state-pact-to-unify-renfe-and-adif --- Cite as: Spanish political coalitions and regional developments.
