FRESH demonstrations calling for a new government took place in Iceland yesterday following the resignation of Prime Minister Sigmundur David Gunnlaugsson on Tuesday.

The prime minister’s resignation was prompted by revelations of an offshore company in his name in the so-called Panama Papers released by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ).
