Not unhappy with the UK just wish we could take on more of that which is better in other countries.

Funny that the rest of the world always has a different opinion to yourself.
If you think the UK is so bad why don't you move out and make room for others who fully appreciate it ?

In the same way;
Many more Brits on holiday in Spain than any other nationality
Many more people of all nationalities speaking English than any other language.
Strikes me that these two might help fuel the impression that it's Brits that misbehave.

Why don't you move abroad you are obviously permanently unhappy in England?
But who would whish this character on anyone else, it's bad enough seeing the unsubstantiated, over posted rants here.

Strange then that we have the whole world and his wife flocking to our doorstep risking their lives every day to get to the UK and leave mainland Europe and the rest of the World behind.

I know two similar(ish) resorts very well - Estepona and Weston-super-Mare (which incidentally just might be where EMR is talking about).
Admittedly I haven't spent much time in WSM centre for some time but it was never too bad - usually a bunch of Brummies getting legless and throwing up but that was about it. I must try it again - maybe it's got worse.
I lived in Estepona port for many years and it was common to see people throwing up, using car boots to snort coke off and pissing in full view of all - the place used to stink like a urinal on Saturday and Sunday mornings in the summer (vast majority Spanish by the way - very few Brits there).

Most know nothing or little of what goes on because they are safely tucked up kn front of their teles leaving town and city centres to those out to enjoy themselves
This one of the reasons why there is so much shock and disgust at the behaviour seen when the same groups go on holiday.

It's unlikely that many N.Eu tourists would ever want to visit them or stay there because they have so little to offer other than sand and sea and ugly concrete jungle apt blocks which are a far worse mess than those in the better known tourist centres.

There is definitely a strong drug culture amongst young Spaniards and there are many all Spanish resorts around the coast where drug use is almost the norm.

There is another angle - especially if we're comparing the UK and Spain...
Booze in Spain is very cheap - a fraction of UK prices. So drink fueled anti social behavior and disorder should be far more prevalent among the Spanish.
With all due respect to those defending Brit culture, this is simply not the case.
It also makes a mockery of the notion that charging more for alcohol in the UK will solve the problem.
