The truckers' strike is having a direct impact on large food companies. Some have already been forced to stop their activity temporarily because they cannot produce for lack of raw materials or because they cannot distribute their finished products due to the truckers' industrial action.

There are enmities whose intensity does not wane with the passing of time. The confrontation between the taxi sector and the transport app Uber has been a constant since the American company first began operating in Barcelona in 2014. Since then, the company has made two more attempts to return to the Catalan capital. The third was launched this Tuesday, using only by taxis and Catalan platform Social Car's shared cars. Even so, the response of taxi drivers has been the same as in previous attempts. After an assembly at Sants station, the Élite Taxi association has called the first mobilisations to protest against Uber's return. The sector will hold a slow drive through the city on Thursday that will start at Plaça Espanya, past the headquarters of employer association Foment del Treball on Via Laietana and end at the Parliament of Catalonia.
