Spain has proposed banning non-EU residents - including Britons - from buying properties in the country.
Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez announced the plan at a political rally, in what is the latest in a series of measures he wants to tackle rising property prices and limited supply.
Spain’s Central Bank recently estimated that there could be a shortage of half a million houses across the country by the end of this year.
Speaking to supporters on Sunday, Sanchez said his government "proposes to ban these non-EU foreigners who are not residents, and their relatives, from buying houses in our country since they only do so to speculate".
