A lot of lower class idiots from England go to the Spanish Costa's....cheap and cheerful I guess....

They're not up north

They're not up north

I like the South of France....a bit of a step up from the Spanish costas.

Different crowd, different atmosphere, better food....Less “cheap and cheerful package holiday" vibe!

Parents used to take us camping there when we were little. It was lovely back then....Although the Krauts could lower the tone a bit!!

We went to the Basque Region when we were kids too.....

It was in the off season, not too hot and there was a bit of hiking involved. It was a good holiday when you're a kid.

they'll be the ones serving you the cock tails....

As if these guys have interest in genuine work. It'll be petty crime and drugs. Morocco will be glad to have cleared out their country of lower class uneducated people who can thieve their way though Europe and ultimately send money home making welfare less of their problem. That's not to say there isn't a cohort of professional Moroccans in Europe who have carved out fine careers and made contributions but the last decade has seen a lot of North Africa's problem people be allowed to just enter Europe with an ad hoc provision to stay and no will to deport.

the authorities should shoot on site,

Out of interest, does this include shooting the 7,000 children out of interest, or just the men and women?

but the socialist dictator will probably protect the illegals and shoot the locals.

Spain hasn't been a dictatorship since the fascists were in charge.

And yes, I'm sure the democratically elected Spanish prime minister will direct police to shoot Spanish citizens

With all the video footage, show me where the 7000 women and children are? From what I can see its all young, middle aged men.

As for the prime minister, he gave the green light to regularise around 500,000 undocumented migrants and some asylum applicants. Reap what you sow.

While the actual number of 'economic' refugees crossing these so-called borders is statistically small for a continent already hosting around 9 or 10 million refugees, the political optics are devastating.

Uncontrolled border imagery taps into public anxieties regarding national sovereignty, amplifying domestic frustrations over housing shortages and inflation.

Far-right movements successfully weaponise these visual failures, framing them as a loss of state control.

Meanwhile, mainstream parties walk right into a political trap. By adopting hardline rhetoric and reactive border policies to stem the populist tide, establishment parties merely validate and normalise far-right narratives. Ultimately perception is everything in politics.

And this kind of comment hits precisely on the two main flashpoints that can drive public anger.....the visual demographic makeup of arrivals (predominantly young men) and the policy disconnect coming from leadership (such as Spain’s mass regularisation framework spearheaded by PM Sánchez).

It captures the exact populist grievance circulating online....

And that governments are legally absorbing hundreds of thousands of people while simultaneously failing to secure borders, creating a potent "pull factor" argument that the far-right exploits on a daily basis.....
