“Police detained at least 15 in Madrid, including one minor, as they used force to quell an angry mob of protesters near the Spanish parliament, united under a ‘Besiege Congress’ slogan calling for the government to quit. The riots come as Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy is set to announce a raft of measures on Friday aimed at tackling the country’s recession. An estimated 1,400 policemen were deployed around the chamber as politicians cancelled the session for the day. Protesters held signs that read ‘6.2 million reasons’ in a reference to the latest jobless figures and when police charged them they chanted ‘You have jobs, we do not.'”
