2017 Catalan independence referendum

A last minute presentation to the Parliament of Catalonia results in the formal approval of a referendum concerning independence from Spain after tense discussions. Though the country's president urges the government to ignore the bill, parliament is expected to vote in favor of an independence vote. For the approval of this law, the Speaker, Carme Forcadell breaks the regulations of the Parliament, placing the camera outside the law and violating the rights of the opposition.
