in my opinion the way of working generates traffic jams in majorca. the senseless break called siesta creates chaotic traffic jams. why this break in work in the winter months and spring. does anyone know the answer
The precious few things that "loadsamoney" actually likes aren't "leftist" or "communist" (is there *anything* loadsamoney actually likes?). Everything else is because of commies (and that's pretty much anything he finds objectionable, including all the low life foreigners that live here). Though statistically, there's very few verifiable "communists" left in the world. China you say? Erm, it claims to be Communist, but it's actually a capitalist autocracy, much like what Trump is trying to forge in the US. Same irony like the "Democratic People's Republic of Korea" (DPRK), which exhibits zero resemblance to a "democracy". But yeah, whatever we don't like is because of commies. It's easier to digest that way. And makes us "normal" people take pride in not being "commies". Whatever that is.
Organ WelshmanThe PP (Partido Popular) which controls Mallorca is right wing.
Organ WelshmanAnother one who doesn't even know what political parties run the Baleares.
oouoo oouooYou might not have noticed that the Balearic government is right wing supported by the far right, but blame it on socialism if it makes you feel better.
Such an irrelevant backward little naval gazing Island with sub standard left wing politicians.
Stephen NivenAgree, EU law allows road tolls and surcharges but regulates them to ensure non-discrimination (especially against foreign drivers). On of the ‘ virtues’ of being in the EU…
Tax tax tax tax tax tax tax .... almost like they are suffering from some form of socialist tourettes
This is heading for a legal minefield, effectively setting Mallorca up as a gated community run by an HoA. Discrimination against mainland residents, let alone the wider EU? If you have a legally taxed, insured and certified-as-safe (ITV, TüV, MoT etc.) vehicle in any EU country, you are entitled to drive it on public roads anywhere in your country, or indeed the entire bloc.
