Amazon does not ask for my social security number in the USA or my Cedula number in the Dominican Republic. If you asked me for the equivalent of my SSN to deliver a package, I would feel weird about it.

Hi Stu , regarding the immigration policy . Why can’t the patrol boats on the coastline turn the boats back around before they land just like we do in the top end of Aus. If they do make it to Spain it’s straight to detention. This discourages them to leave and waste their money. Also you don’t know the persons background. In Aus we have had quite a few bad elements being released from Manus Island detention . Notice they never send the women. Enjoy your reports as always . Thx.

RE: temperature increases mentioned at 2:51. Studies put out by various government agencies and NGO's around the world oftentimes couch their predictions with vague words or phrases like "could" or "possibly" or "predicted to be" with great abandon. Likewise, the term "climate change" should be taken with a large grain of salt since their many predictions of imminent doom haven't happened yet for decades.

I may be dim, but I really don’t understand the transferring of illegal migrants to a third country, i.e. Albania (as you rightly say, simply passing the problem on), and not returning to country of origin.

6.5K issued golden visas at 0.5MM euro was worth 3.25 billion to Spain. Seems pointless to abandon a passive income stream like that.

Hola todos. The golden visa should stay but for those who are becoming tax residents. It helps the spanish economy with new tax income, new residents adding financially to local economies. Change rather than elimination. Otherwise the best houses are being bought, to supply income to entities outside of spain. Or, perhaps i’m missing something.

As an American of Basque roots I'm taking advantage of the Golden Visa so I can move to the Basque country. Last time I chacked, I'm not an oligarch. When I heard it would be going away, I accelerated my plans (it's VERY expensive for a regular person) and despite it being hard to do it at this exact moment, I feel lucky to have just enough to make it happen before 2025 comes around.

Imagine dumping 20 thousand Haitians into a town of 60 thousand overnight. Imagine repeating the same in multiple communities. I am a Dominican, and they say we will enrich and improve the communities. As a Dominican, I do not see that happening in the Bronx, Paterson, East Orange, etc. I see the ghettos expanding. I had to move twice because the ghettos catch up with you. I will run out of places to move to. It is hard to tell people to stop blasting loud music out of their cars, it is hard to tell them to stop speeding in residential areas, it is hard to tell them to stop opening the windows of their cars and dumping garbage on the road; it is hard to say to them to not have their phones on speaker inside the elevator. Imagine going to a park and you see MS-13 members at Holmdel Park in NJ. Do you feel like returning with your 6-year-old daughter to play at the playground?

@@drob4575 I did not say it was a crime; I said those are the tiny little things you see in the Bronx, Paterson, Clifton, etc. Also, I might have mentioned hanging underwear, smoking pot in public places, and speaking loudly. It does have everything to do with Spain. You believe that allowing many Africans into Spain will make it better. Well, I am telling you what happens when you do that. It is your country, and you can do whatever you want with it.

Only19% ????????????? In 2020/21 more than 50% of inhabitants in my city were migrants since then we have received well over 3 million more migrants into the country. You can bet a large majority of those headed to my city too. In comparison it looks to me as if Spain isn’t doing so badly.

I have visited Menorca/Majorca for over 50 years, but never again. Nothing to do with alleged "climate change" but rather the attitude of the Spaniards who have made tourists, particularly British tourists, feel unwelcome this year. I am not alone. I know of at least 10 people who won't be returning either. Refugees welcome....you can have them, but they surely won't grow your economy!

Excellent. English residents have thoroughly insulated themselves from Spaniards and live on their little island in Spain. All they provide is a revenue stream for the Spanish govt and add nothing else.
