Tens of thousands of demonstrators gathered across Brazil yesterday to call for the impeachment of president Dilma Rousseff, whom they blame for a vast corruption scandal and the economy’s worst slump in a quarter of a century.
Less than a year into her tumultuous second term, the left-wing president’s support has dwindled to single digits in recent polls, while two in three support calls for her impeachment.
The protests were the third major demonstration of the year against Ms Rousseff.
