They are the ones, the locals say, who are carousing, brawling and getting violently sick.
They are the ones crowding into health clinics seeking morning-after pills and help for sexually transmitted diseases. They are the ones who seem to have one vacation plan: drinking themselves into oblivion.
“They scream, they sing, they fall down, they take their clothes off, they cross-dress, they vomit,” Malia’s mayor, Konstantinos Lagoudakis, said in an interview. “It is only the British people — not the Germans or the French.”
Earlier this summer, flying home to Manchester from the Greek island of Kos, a pair of drunken women yelling “I need some fresh air” attacked the flight attendants with a vodka bottle and tried to wrestle the airplane’s emergency door open at 30,000 feet. The plane diverted hastily to Frankfurt, and the women were arrested.
… more than a dozen British women were charged in July with prostitution after taking part, the authorities said, in an alfresco oral sex contest.
It gets worse with more details. The conclusion seems to point to the fact that the Brits under constant surveillance in their own country go nuts when they are “freed.”

The “Jet Set” is truly a term from Ancient History.
bobbo. I think you’re confusing Dvorak’s objections to video surveillance in the UK (1.5 million cameras at last count) with linking this to British vacation behaviour (been going on since Roman times).
The connection is bogus, the concerns about privacy are real.
And believing the stories, the cameras are a bil misplaced. 1.5 Mi on UK and none on the Greek islands? It’s a shame…
#16 “Mary Poppins was nothing like this”
You never met her on holiday did you?
#22–QB==I’d love to agree with you “but” this post is all about the bogus connection.
That said, I can’t concentrate right now, I’m thinking about Mary Poppins in a wet tee-shirt contest or maybe that al fresco oral thing.
