A boy plays on a slide made out of discarded construction material at the Romanian gypsy settlement of “El Gallinero”, in the outskirts of Madrid November 24, 2012. More than 400 Romanian gypsies live in precarious conditions, without running water or sewage services, in “El Gallinero”, just 15 km (9 miles) away from Madrid’s centre. The inhabitants live in ramshackle huts made out of cardboard and zinc in an area prone to flooding. They have no running water or sewer services. Their children play amidst garbage, copper cables and rats. Picture taken November 24, 2012. REUTERS/Susana Vera (SPAIN – Tags: SOCIETY POVERTY)
