How anyone can mention the beautiful Spanish city of Alicante in the same breath as the Northern European ghetto of Torrevieja is beyond me.  My favourite southern resort has to be Nerja.  Of course it is commercialised - it is a holiday resort- but it still manages to retain charm and a Spanish ambiance.  With a choice of beaches from several coves to the longer expanse of  Burriana, its winding narrow streets, its range of eateries and watering holes to suit all tastes and wallets, the varied atmosphere in its barrios, this is one of my favourite places in the world and arguably the most picturesque resort in Spain.   Just my opinion of course!  There are also many delightful small resorts on the Costa Brava.

Bit of a glaring omission, not showing your errors.  How is one supposed to learn , if not shown the error and the correction?  I suppose this is not a teaching tool, merely a gauge.

Roly 2.  If your criterion for government expenditure is affordability, then I must point out to you that the UK cannot afford anything, especially Trident.
