UPDATE 1-Hong Kong gloom spreads to Europe, miners lead decline

European shares edged lower for a second session on Monday as an escalation in Hong Kong protests, an inconclusive Spanish election and Moody's warning on Britain's sovereign debt made for a gloomy start to the week. The pan-European STOXX 600 index fell 0.2% by 0949 GMT, with London's FTSE 100 leading declines among the major regional indexes with a 0.5% drop. Ratings firm Moody's warned on Friday it might cut its rating on Britain's sovereign debt again, saying that neither of the main political parties in the upcoming election was likely to tackle high borrowing levels.
