[video] Riots break out in Greece after Austerity Plan Passes
In other countries they take to the streets when they feel they are being wronged by the government, here we go to Disneyland.
The Greek government has voted in favour of a new round of austerity cuts – securing the next multi-billion instalement of cash from the EU and staving off a default.
But furious protesters have reacted violently to the vote, with battles between police and demonstrators continuing just meters from Parliament. Scenes from downtown Athens resemble a warzone – as protesters fought with riot squads amid volleys of tear gas. Hundreds of thousands of people nationwide walked off their jobs for a two day strike against the austerity cuts.
