A woman holding a banner reading 'what a shame!' gestures during a protest
against the reform of the Spanish constitution which aims to cap Spain's
future budget deficit, in Madrid on September 1, 2011. The ruling Socialist
party and main opposition conservative Popular Party bridged bitter rivalry
to back the proposed reform, an unexpected accord ahead of November 20 general
elections. Under the consitutional change, Spain must stick to a deficit
cap except in times of natural disaster, recession, or extraordinary emergencies
and even then only with approval of the lower house. Getty |
