A 35-year-old Algerian man was arrested a few days ago after what was meant to have been a "romantic" night at a Cala Millor hotel ended when he punched and headbutted his girlfriend.
The couple, who live in Palma, had booked into the hotel for one night. According to the version of events she later gave to the Guardia Civil, their stay took a turn for the worse when she asked him for money to tip a waitress. They were at this point in their room.
He was infuriated by the request and told the woman that it had been a mistake to spend the night at the hotel. "My boss is going to fire me, I'm going to lose my job because of you."
He then insulted her. She spat at him. And then he punched and headbutted her, fracturing her nose and causing severe bleeding.
He left the hotel and returned to Palma. The woman meanwhile went to Manacor Hospital. She was initially reluctant to denounce him to the Guardia Civil, but in the end agreed and gave officers a full account of what had happened.
The Guardia Civil went to his address in Palma and advised him to turn himself in to the National Police, which he did.

Its called multiculuturalism. You know just like we have in the UK where we all learn to appreciate and value each others cultures. The old way was monocultural where we all looked more or less the same, spoke and acted in a similar manner, like a nation that is trying to hold on to the benefits of having been a super power. Now we have been instructed by our leaders who know better than us little people how we must discard all that and learn to be a small country in a much bigger world where all cultures are equally good and valuable, especially since they are living next door to us. In this case I am sure he did not mean to hurt her, merely instruct her as a good husband instructs his wife.
the usual suspects....
