Re Benidorm, we live inland for about an hour from Benidorm but we do enjoy an hour or so once a month there. Poniente beach is amazing, the sea is wonderful to swim in . Beautiful ….
Your titles are perfect!!! Keep up the good work!!! Looking forward to the daily updates.
No doubt Cameron will sell Gibraltar down the river just as he and his party have done with the UK.
Milei may well be right
Pretty simple really ( Digital No-names ) just turn off the free WiFi
Hello saw some video on YT showing no go Areas in parts of Spain for none Spanish people’s
That clown is a calamity for his own country and is pushing it into the abyss. Spain will not cry for Argentina...
“Business’?” Just one more of many errors in the Comments section. It’s understandable for those who use English as a second language. So many people don’t have a command of the English language (whether grammar, spelling or syntax). That includes many from the U.S. and UK among others.
This is KZread not an English grammar class or spelling test. As long as the comment can be read & understand ,it doesn’t matter . A lot of people didn’t follow pen pushing office careers ,& left all that pedantic English Grammar & perfect spelling back in their old school classrooms , with the class nerds where it belongs .
In this case they are far right. There is nothing moderate about their ideology.
Need to change the name from far right to Nazi
Argentine president is the biggest hypocrite that is bought and paid for by Israel 💡
Sánchez is clearly hyping the incident, playing victim, deflecting attention as he is on the limelight now for many suspicious activities (his and of his circle). So he is putting his own interests in first place, even at the cost of diplomatic relationships. Bad for Milei (in Argentina politics are quite foul and they insult each other) and worse for Sánchez; just remember Sánchez's government has been attacking Milei for months, even calling him a drug addict (no proof there while Sanchez's wife is under investigation). Moreover, Sánchez blatantly supported Massa, the opposition's far-left leader in Argentina; leader of the leftish side of the "peronismo", a movement that utterly ruined Argentina. Well, even Sánchez has not even congratulated Milei for becoming president! (if you think of how important are the historical and relations of brotherhood between Argentina and Spain, you would find this surprising, to say the least).Anyway, let's see the results in the next European elections; just remember a fact: Sánchez NEVER won one single election (he forged alliances which I deem harmful for Spain).
Great video stu.
Oh good grief. No problem calling out another political party & being critical of it. But unless someone has been convicted (not just accused of) a crime, leave family members out of it. I really like Pres. Milei, but let’s stay classy.
What is to like about fasism?
not only taking up space but probably freeloading on free wifi
Eh, it's priced in their overpriced coffee.
@@youssef16844 yeah but it should take maybe 1/2 hour for a coffee max not hours
Lel since wen is anticommie “far right”, literally what used to be christian democrats which are left to center.
You are correct, Stu. The U.S. is about to enter into the "Fight of its Life" to defend the U.S. Constitution and Democracy during the November elections. God help us and pray that U.S. Constitution can withstand the test of time our forefathers fought and died for.
Pedro tiene piel un poco delgada?
No. He appears to be a quite wise politician. People from *his* party tried to get him out, he got out and reentered to be "presidente del gobierno" which is the equivalent of Premier or Prime Minister. He has defused the main danger of Catalan independence and has shown real political courage to achieve his goals. In real life every thing is exactly random, however it can be nearly rational.
@@antonijaume8498 I have a completely different opinion about Sánchez. Not so good at all. You are right about the part of "his goals" (not Spain's).
Love Avila! I saw it a few years ago. It was 36 degrees however so quite hot. Had my first tinto de verano there and it was very refreshing.
all the cafe needs to do is look at the minimum profit a table would make per hour and charge that plus 105% for anyone drinking an house coffee or kick them out.... it's not rude, it's business.
The issue of people sitting in a cafe for hours with a coffee is reflected in Ireland in pubs. Tourists live the culture but will buy one drink and stay all night. Funnily enough the Spanish are one of the groups most guilty. Guess it’s in part a cultural difference or lack of awareness.
Lack of awareness. Irish used to do the same here in Spain and I saw a lot because lived in Plaza de los Irlandeses, in Alcalá de Henares, Madrid. Same in Canada and the States.
Why do commentators keep calling people far right ? It's used so often it has lost any meaning
Same with the wild far west
Defending Franco fascist dictatorship may or may not have something to do with the issue
No, it hasn't. It's still well-defined within political science. Try reading a book once in a while, Diane.
Thank you for your inmense help with English language. I have my English exams in a few weeks and your videos are very useful. On the top of that I am well informed.
All the cafes and bars have to do to restrict the digital nomads taking up space is to program their Routers to cut people off,say, after one hour on line. No access after that. Or, take the Router down altogether which will leave the Nomads having to pay for 4G access.
Spain has often caused delays at the Gibraltar border. The answer to that lies with Spain, which has to examine its silliness. That doesn't require EU involvement, although the EU is exploiting the situation so it can end Gibraltar's historic status. Cameron is the wrong person for these negotiations. We need someone to stand up to the bullying at the border
Crisis in Spain, when did this start, its funny how the world gets shook up, Spain gave us grief over the Falklands all those years ago and seeming supported Argentina, now Argentia says the falklands atre legally British and Spain is corrupt, what a giggle
Why do they make such sensationalist headlines about Spain?
Crisis! What crisis? Argentinians might think that it is a thing of gallegos and they'd be right. The diplomatic tension with Argentina is not such but propaganda, a click bait to fish votes from the left because we are in an electoral campaign for the European Parliament.
This is absolutely shocking behaviour by a foreign head of state visiting any country officially or not. There are good manners to consider, and i wonder seriously about his upbringing? It's downright disrespectful, and i hope that Spain does indeed take him to task. How utterly disgraceful to call out our prime minister and discuss his family publicly.
His rudeness, lack of couth, leather jacket and long hair make me think of the awful fascists in the United States, steve bannon and tucker carlson, also rude, 'patan' like behavior very disrespectful.
He’s correct , she is corrupt. Every spaniard wants Sanchez gone and it’s just a fix for the eu he is still in . 50k immigrants arrived this year into southern Spain , it’s at breaking point down here .
How about we wait for some credible evidence to come to light so that she can be tried before a court instead of what Manos limpios did... Just supply some cut outs from some newspapers.
Love what you do but why is it always necessary to use clickbait titles like this one with a single word CRISIS! It cheapens your content greatly to exaggerate like this.
Which is ironic because he regularly complains about the "clickbait mainstream media". Self-reflection is quite hard though so I don't blame him.
Stu, I believe that digital nomads are being blamed for the housing crisis.i believe we can blame the homeowners who are just being greedy, The Americans, for example, who are encouraging other Americans to move there because they use their services, are partially to blame. Folks with money are not struggling to find a place to live. They are outbidding the average Portuguese. It's really a shame.
Sounds like a housing shortage due to lack of controlled building specifically for locals. Nomads/tourists are they the real issue or a convenient scapegoat.
Hey Stuart. Thanks for all the hard work. Mimi & I try to watch every episode. All the best from Portland, Oregon.
Her guilt has yet to be decided,
She’s being prosecuted, news today !
@@milaabaigar536 Prosecuted is not sentenced, did you know? Also, on these questions the unbiasedness of the judges is pretty dubious. In this case it appears that he has a daughter that is an elected city councillor for the PP.
Not far right just right
Yeah, you're always right when you're far right, right? No room for humility or even the idea of potentially being wrong. No, you're always right. That's what brought you your current life.
As for Milei, Argentina has been such a mess for so many years that perhaps give him time to see if he can turn things around. Some of his policies make sense, albeit much of his public persona is distasteful. There is no doubt it could makes things worse, but also worth the low risk that his policies could make things better.
He is reversing an approach that has been applied more or less since 1943, he can't make it worse.
@@EdMcF1 You can always make things worse, it doesn't require to be talented.
@@EdMcF1 Haha, bless your heart. You can always make anything worse. Especially monetary policy.
Milei is owned by Israel, he's a puppet ✅
Always enjoy the show. All of this talk (this show and prior ones) about the digital nomads or golden visa holders being to blame for the cost of housing increase. On the Golden Visa specifically, per El Pais, 10k visas have been given out since the start of the program in 2013, and it is hard to believe that is what is driving the entire market crazy. No doubt, that program was started when Spain's real estate market needed stimulus, and that is not longer the case, so ending it can be fine, but blaming it for the reason the market is over heated seems odd. The market is impacted by many things. 1) immigration/ visa types of all sorts 2) the lack of building during the crisis years and 3) Airbnb and similar schemes. And these issues are not unique to Spain (and Portugal).
I suspect AirBnB has had a far greater impact than the Golden Visa. Tourists behaving badly is completely unacceptable. The cruise ships that dock and unload thousands of tourists for a day visit and then depart in the evening truly strain a location. I have seen that in a few locations.
About digital nomads occupying cafes to use the WIFI, some cafes could introduce a time limit on their WIFI, or give clients a token that initiates a time limit. Some libraries use that feature to limit the use of their facilities by those who exploit the WIFI of the library.
Re grammar and spelling mistakes - you never know whether a person has a problem like dyslexia or English is not their first language. I do think though that it would be better if people read through the text before submitting it.
Great answer. For me it's trying to comment on my dumb phone and auto correct.
@@michaelwhitman6901 autocorrect is quite annoying when you use various languages and it kicks off late.
@@antonijaume8498 Then... turn it off? Problem solved.
I’m sure my comment won’t have any speling mistakes or grammar bad 😂
Drinking themselves to stupor... Ha ha ha... Is this an Australian expression?? 😆😃😀😘 or I got the wrong word around the swimming 🏊 pool 🌴🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷
Good morning 👍
Very decent & consistently informing us. Thank you Stuart 😎😍
Millei needs to visit Argentina every now and then.
Oscar Puente (transport minister I think) started this off the other week saying that Millei looked like a junkie! Who knows why? Probably to divide left and right voters as usual as there was no other reason to make such a statement just before his visit
Madrid is too far from the sea.
Milel just another Trump populism for the rich.
Trump did wonders for america? Shows your IQ level for comparing the two. Dont be a jealous hater.
Predictive text is a pain. It's always changes my words. Have to be careful xx.
Typically leftie, most likely the party is not far right.
