Get rid of all the non Mallorcans good. In winter better all year.

I understand why so many people are angered by the actions of these hate filled protesters, but please do not think they speak for Mallorca. I am fearful that this is not about ecology or over crowding and is more about the eradication of people who "dilute the language" - a quote from my children's teacher. The best way to stand up to these people is to come to Mallorca in even bigger numbers. The ordinary mallorquins, who are not obsessed with linguistic and cultural purity are kind warm inclusive people and we reject hatred totally. As a dual national with loyalties to several places in europe, I find this intolerance of difference horrifying. I also wonder why its Ok to welcome refugees whilst simultaneously showing intolerance and hate to tourists who are people too - I guess with nationalists and racists some people are more valuable than others!

Mallorca has a population in winter for just over 1 million, there is around 30 on that 'demo' so I really do think the DB and everyone is making a mountain out of a mole hill

I see one of the comments I referred to has been removed (thank you MDB) but the other using the word ‘filthy’ still remains.

Have to say, I agree with S.O. I really cant understand all of this negative attitude towards tourism, but there is absolutley no need to bring such racist comments into it. Mind you, without tourism, Mallorca would be in no position to help any refugees.

That minidemonstration had nothing to do with tourists, which they also declared. It was all about environmental pollution because these ships use large quantities of heavy fuel oil (Schweröl). According to Mallorca Zeitung one such ship use as much heavy fuel oil in 3 days as is used during a whole year by the airport PMI. If that is true there should be many more protests.

Is no-one moderating these comments? There are two below which I doubt meet the 'rules of use'. By all means criticise these protests as much as you want if you don't agree with them but to insult certain groups by calling them 'filth' is beyond the pale and decidedly racist.

All I can say to these idiots “ be careful what you wish for “ Or stick them all onto a plane to look at oxford street on a Saturday morning. In the UK we value the revenue that tourists bring. The problem is these young people have never experienced life without the tourist revenue. Perhaps in the near future they will.

Sad to see the peasant mentality coming out here. If the schools don't provide education for the real world you can't expect anything else.

Sad to see. If I was a visitor on that cruise I would NEVER visit Mallorca again.
