		</div><p>The Catalonia region&#8217;s parliament has cleared the way for an independence vote that Spain&#8217;s government contends is illegal.</p>
<p>Catalan lawmakers passed a controversial bill that clears the way for a secession vote on October 1 despite fierce resistance from the political opposition and central authorities. </p>
<p>The votes of 72 pro-independence lawmakers were enough to pass the so-called &#8220;referendum bill&#8221; after more than 11 hours of debate that ended with 52 opposition members of parliament walking out in protest.</p>
<p>Regional president Carles Puigdemont&#8217;s cabinet is expected to sign the decree officially calling for the vote on a binding independence referendum.</p>
<p>The leader of the main opposition party Ciudadanos (Citizens) immediately announced that the party would seek a vote of no confidence against Mr Puigdemont to force new regional elections.</p>
