Far-right account Núcleo Nacional trolls Spanish media and government

The Núcleo Nacional account claims Spain's housing problem can be solved by deporting 10 million people, and that this would bring rents back down to 400 euros a month. The post does not say who would be deported, within what timeframe, at what cost, or where that figure comes from.

## The post: deport 10 million and rents of 400 euros

The **Núcleo Nacional** account states on X that the housing problem "is solved by deporting 10 million" people and that rents will then go back to **400€** a month. The text opens with a jab about **NBQ** teams which, it says, its militants cannot afford.

It does not clarify who would be deported, within what timeframe or at what cost. Nor does it estimate the effect on the existing housing stock. These are two round figures, with no source or methodology in sight.

## Neither figure comes with any calculation

It is unknown whether those 10 million are foreign-born residents, people in an irregular situation or some other group. Nor why rents would stop at exactly 400 euros.

To put the scale in perspective: Spain had more than **48 million** inhabitants as of 1 January 2025, according to the Instituto Nacional de Estadística (national statistics institute). The figure the post calls for amounts to more than a fifth of that population.

## Housing depends on more factors

The relationship between population inflows and rental prices is studied case by case, and results vary by city and by the available housing stock. No migration measure sets a price by decree.

The post does not address how a deportation on that scale would be carried out. Any promise of 400-euro rents needs a calculation behind it, and none appears here.
