Greek parliament approves €85bn bailout after rancorous debate - FT.com:
"Greece’s parliament approved a new €85bn rescue package early on Friday following rancorous all-night talks and the late inclusion of additional reforms requested by the country’s creditors.
The measures were approved with 222 votes for, 64 against and 11 abstentions in the culmination of a 24–hour session.
Prior to the debate on the measure themselves, legislators sat through nine hours of talks on procedure that laid bare a deepening feud between senior officials in the leftwing Syriza government and Zoi Konstantopoulou, the combative speaker of parliament, who is a vocal opponent of the bailout deal."
