Swatch has its best day in over two years as investors shrug off a 20 fall in profit focussing on the watch makers positive outlook. Greece passed the austerity measures required for a bailout. Tsipras urged lawmakers to approve reforms. 229 voted in favor of the bill. Chaos was outside parliament. Parts of the square were set ablaze as they chanted we have been betrayed. And anger inside parliament. Half of the no votes came from syriza as they condemned a very black day for democracy in europe.
