I assume a lot of this additional unemployment is to do with hotels beginning to close down for the winter so visitors have nowhere to go?
When the tourist tax comes in the island will have a long long summer as well depression is looming
And unemployment will go through the roof in October as the island, yet again, shuts down for a long, long winter...
