On the Beach has taken moves to tackle anti tourism protests – by putting up posters of the famous Lord Kitchener (complete with bucket hat) across Spanish resorts and the Canary Islands, insisting: “Tourists – Spain wants you”.

The OTA said the posters had been placed in “high footfall locations”, visible outside major airports in Spain and the Canary Islands.
The move follows a survey of Spanish residents, conducted by On The Beach, which found that more than three quarters (77%) said they had “no problem with tourists visiting hotels in the Canary Islands and Spain”, and only 7% said they were actually against tourists staying in hotels.
