    Catalonia lawmakers have asked Madrid for a referendum on the region's future

    Pro-independence leaders in Catalonia say PM Rajoy should follow the example of UK PM Cameron with Scotland

    Lawmakers from the Spanish region of Catalonia voted to seek a referendum on breaking away from Spain on Thursday, setting themselves up for a battle with an implacably opposed central government in Madrid. The Catalan Parliament in Barcelona voted 87 to 43, with 3 abstentions, to send a petition to the national parliament seeking the power to call a popular vote on the region’s future.
