In July, protesters took to the streets of Palma, the Mallorcan capital, carrying placards with slogans such as “no to mass tourism” and “tourism, but not like this”.
Although he did not attend, Jaume Fuster, 27, a local, agreed with the messages. “They should be a wake-up call to our politicians to legislate against the overcrowding and bring in laws that improve the quality of life of us residents,” the hotel worker said.
