MALLORCA TODAY - Students plan sit-ins over cuts

From Thursday a series of protests are to be organised by university and secondary school students over cuts in education (and also in health plus the rise in transport prices and labour reforms) which will culminate in sit-ins over the night of 28 February and a strike on 29 February to coincide with protests across Spain and Europe.

Meanwhile, action by students in Valencia against education cuts there which has been ongoing since last week has become the focal point for protests, with accusations of violence and disproportionate measures being adopted by police.
