Iceland voters reject UK debt deal
Defiant Icelandic voters have resoundingly rejected a €3.9bn plan to pay off Britain and the Netherlands for debts spawned by the collapse of internet bank Icesave, according to initial results today.
Results returned from around 83,500 referendum ballots – or more than 40% of the total ballots expected – counted so far showed 93% of voters said No, compared with just 1.5% who backed the deal.
