The Union Jack beach towel was flying over Balearic hotels in July because for the first time in a number of years there were more British tourists than Germans in the Balearics. In July in the Balearics it was the British who won the battle of the beach towel with 638,000 British tourists coming to the islands compared to 611,000 Germans. Britain was the Number 1 market for the Balearics.
Best of British! UK is Number 1 again in the Balearics
British overtake the Germans

I see that Mr William’s fan club (family, friends, hangers-on, employees etc) have been busy giving him positives and everybody else, negatives. Personally I would feel ashamed if I.could only muster up 6 or 7 . It’s nice to know that two can play at that game.
Ever notice that Britain is the only nationality that constantly needs to reassure itself that it's still #1? Even if it has to creatively spin one single data point to achieve it. You could say the same thing about Venezuelans or Belgians, or Japanese. Or even Americans. Yep, you win! 🇬🇧 In German (or any other European) media, you'll never find narratives touting how they're "victorious" because more of them land in Mallorca than Brits on any given day. How absurd. And irrelevant. Why? Because they couldn't care less. The only ones competing in this competition are Brits. I'm sure the Germans find it amusing though; It does appear a bit desperate from outside the bubble.
Morgan Williams acts all superior and posh for someone who is a low rent Welshman. Ever heard him say one nice thing about Britain? Nah me neither.
Brits win again? So, for a couple of days in July, there were more Brits than Germans on the island. Yet another victory 🇬🇧. It just never ends. But don't tell the Germans or any other of the millions of Europeans and other nationalities that visit here...they won't understand. What competition? Sorry, we don't know anything about that. Or care. Glad you were victorious at something. Have a great time in Magaluf.
Have you told Morgan Williams ?
