Election Special - What will they do - 1?

The aftermath of 25-M

The aftermath of 25-M (as the May 25th Election day is now known - not to be confused with the M25, London's main car park) is that the island as a whole has a new Government.

So what's going to happen? Well the first 'victim' of the change is the Ecotax, which is unpopular both with the tourists who have to pay it, and with hoteliers who have to collect it.

The island has seen little environmental benefit from the money collected so far because of the inability to complete many of the projects because of bungling and red tape. The PP (Partido Popular) has promised to throw out this tax by this summer.
