Not only young people, this measure hits hard a lot of people with just a few months warning. There are many sectors that will be affected: live music (no way to move sound gear), tour operators (buses from the airport to the centre), repairmen, music schools... not to talk about regular people working in the center with no money to replace their cars.
I'm not against this measure in the long term, but the way it has been put in place is terrible.
- Brakenshire 8y agoDid they really introduce it with a few months warning? The London equivalents slowly ramp up and are made public half a decade before implementation.
- narag 8y agoThe situation in the council is peculiar. The major's party is a far left coalition with the support of PSOE, the party of prime minister Sánchez. While PSOE is a mature party, Ahora Madrid is a melting pot of radical people with some interesting ideas and no experience. They've shown very little management ability and an "us vs. them" mindset. It was surprising that PSOE refused the offer from former major's party (PP) to govern without conditions and instead voted for AM without even entering the council gov. team. That would have brought some experienced people and softened the politics. Oh and BTW, a few hours ago PSOE has sunk and lost government in Andalusia, their main vote silo. It seems that their erratic pacts politics (they're governing Spain with the votes of anti-Spain separatist parties) is harming them.
