Spain is a major example of a country that's lives off foreigners going there. Benidorm, Majorca and Ibiza. Without us these parts would be poor and empty. Be grateful we make the effort to wake up and bail you lot out The euro will split before 2014.

LOL..I didn't say it was "filthy rich," I said it HAD less public debt than most of Europe and it's true. Why bail them out? Because they're part of the EU and Germany decided they fell under the austerity measures. Their main problem now is their high unemployment.

However, it's such a craphole according to you, why do you froeigners continue to vacation and buy houses there?! There are more English in Spain than Spanish in England. That alone says how much foreigners benefit from Spain!

[Drew Killin]

Well if Spain is so filthy rich according to you, why are we bailing them out at the moment my good sir?

[ThePaganSun]

And foreigners live off Spain thus why so many foreigners go there to begin with! Quit being so ignorant and stupid! Spain actually had FAR less debt than the UK, Germany, France, etc. but then it rose because of the EU's austerity measures. Right now, it's main problem is unemployment not public debt! And you should shut up since the UK, Central Europe, and even France is hardly doing any better than Spain. Spain is now said to be the "Germany of the South." Look it up! So be quiet!

I say, an extraordinary feat of informational dispersion, good sir.

Boris is merely pronouncing the English language correctly. This is not surprising, considering he went to Eton and Oxford. Perhaps this may rub off at least on the Americans, who have a habit of slaughtering the English language, and have done so since stealing it since 1776.
