Palma.On Thursday night, angry demonstrators clashed with police outside Partido Popular headquarters across the country, including Palma, as anger over allegations of illegal cash payments to members of the centre right PP, including the Prime Minister and yesterday the spotlight was on the Majorcan capital where Rajoy is attending a weekend meeting of 17 European Union foreign ministers to discuss the future of Europe. Yesterday afternoon, demonstrators protested outside the sea front hotel in Palma where the PM is staying and where the meeting is being hosted demanding that he resigns. Rajoy out, elections now the angry crowd, blocked by a heavy police presence shouted. If there's corruption, the government must go, this is what happens with a fascist government and we want a government not a Mafia were some of the other slogans yelled by the demonstrators who were kept some 100 metres away from the hotel.
