		</div><p>Spain&#8217;s Parliament has voted to approve acting prime minister Mariano Rajoy&#8217;s bid to form a new minority government, putting an end to the country&#8217;s 10-month political deadlock.</p>
<p>Mr Rajoy, leader of the conservative Popular Party, won a second term as prime minister on Saturday with a 170-111 vote and 68 abstentions.</p>
<p>He needed a majority in the 350-seat Parliament during a first confidence vote on Thursday, but was rejected. He only needed more votes in favour than against during the second vote.</p>
<p>Going into the balloting, Mr Rajoy had the support of 170 politicians, 137 of them from his own party.</p>
<p>The rival Socialist party broke the deadlock by agreeing last week to abstain from the second vote.</p>
<p>Several of its members nonetheless voted against Mr Rajoy on Saturday.</p>
<p>Mr Rajoy will likely be sworn in before King Felipe VI on Sunday.</p>
