Anti-austerity demonstrators clashed with  riot police in Madrid last night.

More than 1,000 officers blocked off access  to the parliament building after protesters vowed to ‘occupy Congress’ in the  heart of the Spanish capital.

Police baton-charged the crowd and there were  reports that protesters were being beaten by officers.
