Vote of no confidence prepared against Spanish PM
By EUobserver
Spain's left-wing Podemos party announced Thursday that it will call for a no-confidence motion against prime minister Mariano Rajoy, in an attempt to exert political pressure over corruption revelations linked to his Popular Party. Rajoy was called to testify as a witness in a major corruption trial earlier this month, making him the first PM in Spain’s modern history to be summoned to the national court.
