A tabloid take on the Majorca bombs...

August 10, 2009

The Daily Mirror's front page has British tourists in bullish mood after three bombs went off in Palma de Majorca yesterday:

'We'll beat Majorca bombers' - Daily Mirror front page, Monday August 10 2009

It's good news for our readers, but an odd front page story for a national paper, given that (as I write) there haven't even been injuries reported.

So, silly season desperation? Or a testament to how much Majorca matters to British holidaymakers?

The FCO hasn't changed its overall level of travel advice, which figures - its advice for Spain has been taking Eta into account for years. So have holidaymakers.
