No sooner had Palma City Council said it would not be introducing new bylaws to control illegal street trading because it infringed on people’s human rights and already came under the jurisdiction of the state law, it would appear that the local police are confused about how to go about tackling the problem.

The EU Courts Of Justice always go against the “regular citizens” and support illegal activities. Don’t forget the EU has never had its accounts signed off by independent accountants for more than seven years, that says it all...
Wouldn’t work. You are presumably not a member of a supposedly oppressed and downtrodden minority. Try in 50 years time.
This is nuts...so the police are reluctant to enforce the law in case someone gets hurt in the process. Surely that would go for everything, not just street trading. I might just try legging it out of a bank with a sack full of cash and warn them not to chase me.
Can't beat a bit of 'FAKE NEWS'.
Just another these ridiculous human rights laws that the EU courts of justice have imposed on Europe that are the causing most countries citizens to question if they would be better off self governing as individual countries not benign states.
I beg to differ, but according to the Madrid press, and quoting a friend of his who was accompanying him at the moment of his collapse, he was not being pursued by the police. A subsequent autopsy revealed that he had a congenital heart disease The rumour that he was being chased by the police was started by members of a left wing party through social media.
