Majorca anti-tourism protest LIVE: Crowds storm streets | World | News

The scene-setting video for the Majorca protest is put to music and features images including queues to get onto iconic island cove Calo des Moro and a peloton of foreign cyclists of the sort that help pump hundreds of thousands of pounds into the local economy every year.

It starts with the lyrics: “There will be no more regattas, tomorrow is the last cruise” before continuing: “Goodbye rental cars, goodbye rat businesses. Houses will be cheap and we won’t see more cyclists.

It ends with an islander singing in Catalan: “We will plow the highways, the hotels will be empty and so the world will understand that there are too many tourists.”

Around 100 different organisations have already vowed to support this evening’s demo in Palma, the second in two months with the number of protestors expected to easily surpass 10,000 people.
