Hi guys it's Michelle from the Costa del Sol bringing you this week's updates on what's been happening. and what's been on my mind and I've got a few things to chat to you about today. You'll notice I dropped the Essex part in my broadcast today because the very first story is a little bit embarrassing for us from Essex I have to say. We had some lads land here in Malaga airport from Essex, who were arrested for not wearing masks. The Police wasted no time at all getting straight to the arrival’s hall, apparently, other passengers said that they knew they were going to be problems on the flight, when they boarded the stewardesses did actually import reported to the captain. And he was informed by that time it was too late to turn the plane around. And so, the plane had to progress on to Malaga airport where the police were at waiting and cabin crews had to give a statement. And you know, it was just, it was just absolutely dire I mean really, guys. You do know, let me tell you these guys are absolute idiots. You do not go up to a cop in the airport and say "me have no mask made me English tourist. We will bring mucho dosh to Spain. Where is nearest bar o”? Well, the cop spoke perfect English, and the next thing you know is there in the police van being hauled away, so they've spent the weekend in a jail. They are up in court today which is Monday here while I'm doing this broadcast. And they will find out if A. they're going to get a massively huge fine. Or if B. they're going to get a massively huge fine, and also get deported from the country, which I think should happen because I think that's like totally disrespectful, especially during this time. You know, so, you know, "Me no have o Masko". No no no no no worst thing you can say to a cop Let me tell you. Secondly, there happened here this week, which I actually take glee in to be honest with you. We had a Matador in Cadiz, which is just up the coast from us a little bit got rammed up the jacksie by dying Bull. Now, his name is Enrique Ponce, which I think is quite an apt name, to be fair, this poor dying bull in his last seconds, managed to ram his horns into his tormentors’ buttocks. Good for the bull that's why I say, I think it's an absolutely dreadful sport. Me and along with, you know, along with loads and loads of Spanish people would love to see this sport stopped. It's only the older generation that see it as a tradition. Most people in Spain, to be fair, would like to see the end of bullfighting. It is a totally cruel and unnecessary sport. And it's a shame that they still practice it here in some places in Spain. Some places it has actually been outlawed, but obviously Cadiz not being one of those places. And then we've got another happening on the coast. King Juan Carlos has decided to. Well let's take as let's say take a short or a long break in Abu Dhabi. In, the United Arab Emirates. So he's left King Philippe here to handle the collateral damage. Yes, it's corruption. What else could it be. It's just a shame the people in that power, feel the need to take the money away from people who really need it, that really guts me. The monarchy here doesn’t get anything like the monarchy there in the UK. They're not given the wealth that they are given there. However, they are taken care of very very well, their transportation or everything they do is taken care of by the Spanish, so they don't have a bad life. You know, they do have quite a distance, you know, a
 
public life, but they are just figureheads just like are you, Queen really to be honest with you. They are there to bring money into the country, not to take money off the country so yeah that's a bit disappointing. Now, I think the next subject could upset a few people because I can be a bit controversial and I got to say how it is, and I am really starting to find myself agreeing with Katie Hopkins. I think that the UK, I think the world is becoming a little bit too PC, I think our language. It's being sanitised. You've got, the you know the white privileged here and the Black Lives Matter movement there and why do we have to have all this. Why can't we all just get along together, and everything be fair for everybody is just such a shame that we have this division and I think it's causing more separation, than it is bringing people together. I mean, she was talking about. Cliff Richard, getting a 2 million payout. After he sued the BBC. Now, they say the BBC paid the 2 million. The BBC did not pay the 2 million. The license payer’s money paid the 2 million. Is that fair that they now want to charge the over 75 for a TV license. You know, in, in their lives, that TV is a lifeline to them. and they've built this country and worked in this country and payed taxes all their lives in the UK. I think when they get to a certain age, I think the BBC should really pull up their big boy pants and go you know what our pensioners deserve a bit better and, yeah, they'll pay the TV license all their life. Let's give it to the over 75 so that's my opinion. Katie Hopkins. She's Marmite she's Marmite you either like her or you don't like. But I got to say she's been doing some parodies on YouTube, where she dresses up as Megan Markel which you know is another favorite subject of mine, and I got to say I'm finding those rather amusing. So, yeah, this time I'm going to give Katie how Katie Hopkins a hats off because actually I do agree with her. Now, the last bit of news I'm going to bring to is, a bit of a shocker, I only found out the other day I don't know some of you may know, but I'm a big fan of. "I'm a celebrity Get me out of here” I’m sure a lot of you out there watch it and apparently this year. It's going to be held in a castle in Wales. Um, yeah, my thoughts on that, I mean it's one thing being in a rainforest in Australia isn’t it, but it's something else being in a sodden wet Castle in Wales, not the Wales is bad, Wales is a beautiful country. But I think they filmed this in like November time, so I don't think they're going to be guaranteed. You know, and who knows, maybe I'll be a little bit more upmarket than the jungle but apparently according to Lady C,  Lady Colin Campbell, she was saying that it's going to be held in the Castle in Wales this year and another thing she said was, all the insects and the critters are all cleaned and therefore made safe from disease because obviously they can't have the several celebrities catching things, but I never knew that. And I'm thinking, who'd have the job of cleaning 50,000 cockroaches. Thank you. One of those on my kitchen floor is enough. You know I can I can definitely live without those. So with that in mind, I'm going to leave you this week. I hope you will have a fabulous fabulous week, please please everybody Stay safe, and until next week. Hasta luego from the Costa Del Sol.
