Madrid: Over 40,000 Spaniards, mostly supporters of the opposition conservative People’s Party, protested in Madrid on Sunday against possible plans by acting PM Pedro Sanchez to grant an amnesty to Catalan separatists to keep himself in office after an election he failed to win. Sanchez could stay in office if he wins the support of exiled former Catalonia leader Carles Puigdemont, whose Junts per Catalunya party controls seven seats in parliament. Reuters
