President Armengol told parliament yesterday that drunken tourism is "very much in the minority" in the Balearics. She said that the government is working on short-term measures to combat this behaviour. One is an increase in inspections of and punishments for establishments which supply alcohol illegally; another is more police control in the main tourist areas.

"Drunken tourism" may only be indulged in by a minority but its effects are on the majority, tourists and residents alike, so the President's analysis is misguided.
Rose tinted glasses looking out of the window of her ivory tower springs to mind!
Don't worry we the tourist's won't bother you much longer and you can have the island to yourselves with no money or investment. Carry on and you will destroy tourism totally.
