Costa Del Sol: The Last Brits Standing

Quote
Brits, they grumble, behave badly, don’t integrate and are “notorious slags”. On the other hand, the Brits struggle to see themselves as immigrants. “They look at us like we’re their Polish,” says Dave..


Maybe we'll see one of our ex-pat members? ;) ;D

Having been to various parts of the Spain and Cyprus , it does make me laugh to hear some of the anti immigration reterick. While I agree the issue has gone too far here, you then have to accept its gone too far elsewhere as well.

Us Brits are as much a part of the "problem" as anyone else. In fact arguably we are the worst aspect.
