  1. Spain is regularly the world’s second most visited country, behind France. Tourism is 12% of its economy. If it wants to take the economic hit, let it go ahead. That said, I understand the complainers’ issue. It’s the same here in the centre of Edinburgh, particularly during Festival season. There needs to be a balance between the passing tourist and the permanent local; at the moment, in too many places, the passing tourist is clearly favoured. On the wider point, it is a shame that so many places (particularly in Europe) are more open-air museums/theme parks than living, breathing, working, organic cities.

  2.  @steve5123456789 That could be because Spanish tourists behave themselves in the UK.👍😉

  3. Agree with most of your points here. Very well put! I would just add one thing: you suggest that tourists should consider visiting Toledo, Salamanca etc.; I’m here to tell you that the type of tourist (particularly British tourist) who travels to Spain is, by and large, completely uninterested in Spain’s culture, history, language etc. and would have absolutely zero interest in having cultural jolly in Granada, or Pamplona, or Santiago de Compostela. No, the vast majority of Brits who go to Spain are simply looking for a good old piss up in the sun! 🍻

  4.  @julia2k8  If the women they are marrying are fully consenting, they do! 🎉

  5.  @julia2k8 Yes, and consenting homosexuals have a right to have sex.

  10.  @RyanSmith-on1hq Huh? Why are you directing that one at me? I fear you have the wrong dude here. 🥴

  11.  @RyanSmith-on1hq P.S. I’m not English. You’re really not very good at this, are you? 🤦‍♂️ 🤫

  13.  @Daisy-023.  Just for the record, I live in Edinburgh and we have thousands of Spanish tourists visiting here every year, and they quite literally cause zero trouble. I repeat: why? Because they don’t get hammered.

  17.  @RyanSmith-on1hq  I’ve never once said I was English, because I’m not English. Of course, you’re looking like the liar now. Bold strategy.👍🤫😉

  19.  @franciscopineda2594  True dude. I never got this hypocrisy from certain Brits. The ones who who are most likely to moan about immigration into the UK are exactly the breed who up sticks and head to the Costas, not bothering to learn the language, not really interested in their host country, they just wanna have sum fun in the sun, hun! 👍

  20.  @RyanSmith-on1hq  Huh? Again, why are you directing that one at me? You’re all over the shop here, son. Do you have no quality control? 🤦‍♂️ Btw, you still haven’t supplied the quote where I said I was English. Who’s looking like the liar now, eh? 😉Bold strategy.

  21.  @RyanSmith-on1hq  No I didn’t. Once again. Desperate tactics. For the third time, where did I say I was English? You’re flailing like a chump here, lad. Bold strategy.👍🤣

  22.  @RyanSmith-on1hq  Why can’t you just accept you are wrong Ryan, son? Is it really that difficult to admit you were wrong to score a point? 🤫👍😉

  23.  @RyanSmith-on1hq  Where’s the ‘deleted’ post that said I was ‘English’, Ryan, honey? Huh? You haven’t got it have you? Can you guess why? 👍🤣🤫😉

  24.  @RyanSmith-on1hq  Just for the record, I’ve been on here for more than 2 years, chump. That ‘plug-in’ doesn’t seem to be doing it for you son, eh? 👍😂

  25.  @RyanSmith-on1hq  Lol. ‘…basically having a meltdown.’ More projection Ryan, hun? 👍🤣

  26.  @RyanSmith-on1hq  Ryan, just for the record, it doesn’t work like that. If you claim something, in the normal world, you need to supply the evidence. Having a meltdown when you are called out is not supplying the evidence. ‘Trust me, bro’ won’t work. 👍🤣😉

  27.  @RyanSmith-on1hq  😉👍Well done. We got there. Congratulations for admitting defeat.

  33.  @RyanSmith-on1hq  But I never claimed to be ‘English’ Ryan, petal. Why would I? I’m Scottish. I thought about this, and the confusion could be you read a post where I said I was British, but I would never have claimed to be English. Hope this clears it all up, sweetie.👍😉

  34.  @RyanSmith-on1hq  Look, Ryan son, just admit you were wrong. Why is this so difficult for you, dearie? 🤔

  35.  @Daisy-023.  Er, what? No. I’m saying hundreds of thousands of young (and not so young) Brits go to Spain and cause all the problems outlined by the OP. Spanish tourists in the UK, by and large, cause no similar problems. Why? They don’t get pished and cause trouble for everyone else around them.

  36.  @Daisy-023.  Did you actually read the OP. Dude lives in Spain. They know what they’re talking about. Now go away.

  37.  @Daisy-023.  Huh? Ok. None of that addresses the point to hand. I guess you’ve conceded defeat. 👍😉
