British Consul for the Baleares sends out warning to British tourists

British Consul for the Baleares, Paul Abrey, speaking to the BBC, has warned about an increase in delinquency in Eivissa. He said there had been cut backs in services and there was less police presence in Sant Antoni and Platja d’en Bossa, all the consequences of a country which is fighting. He made his comments in a BBC report on summer in Eivissa and the areas preferred by the youngsters from the U.K, and also noted the increase in prices. The report talked to young Britons in Sant Antoni, both tourists and workers. The Consul also advised the tourists that, given the economic situation, ‘hospitals could ask for money up front to receive medical treatment’. In another part of the report, based in Mallorca, the Consul said ‘British tourists need to improve their behaviour abroad’.
