The mayor of Badalona, ​​​​Xavier Garcia Albiol, is dedicating his term to going to occupied properties and not leaving until the tenants are evicted. He will never be able to surpass the mayor of Caldes de Malavella, Salvador Balliu (1964), who confronted some squatters who had settled on his property with an axe, fortunately without any bloodshed. The Junts mayor faced a €2,250 fine for minor coercion, but the courts acquitted him a year ago.
