British holidaymakers in Spain face summer of strikes by hospitality staff
British holidaymakers may find their getaways thrown into chaos amid a summer of planned strike action at popular Spanish destinations. Hospitality sector workers in the Balearic Islands have threatened to walk out from July 10 after talks broke down over pay increases. A total of 180,000 workers in hotels, restaurants and other tourist spots – a majority of those employed in the sector on the islands – are set to strike. It comes amid a wave of other industrial action as well as protests against over-tourism across Spain. The main flash point in negotiations with unions is a 17 per cent pay rise demanded by unions. So far workers have been offered a salary bump of 8.5 per cent. The latest announcement of strike action comes despite an eleventh-hour deal reached with hotel workers to avoid a walkout in four of the Canary Islands including Tenerife. Further strikes in Majorca, Ibiza and Formentera will affect all bars, restaurants, cafes and night spots may go ahead on July 18, 19, 25 and 31. The UGT union is also demanding several other reforms to working practices, including a 35-hour working week and to increase the duration of seasonal fixed-term contracts from six to nine months a year. UGT spokesperson Jose Garcia Relucio branded concessions made at Thursday's talks as 'more crumbs', MailOnline reported. The union said that despite entering the negotiations to improve conditions for workers, the meeting had ended with several agreed reforms rolled back. However the Majorca Hotel Business Federation blamed UGT for a creating a poor negotiating environment and failing to listen to its reasons for not meeting its demands. Its vice-president, María José Aguiló, said: 'We have reached a point where, despite the fact we have been willing to address the issue of guaranteed employment for fixed-term contracts, they have not listened to our reasons for not raising the proposed [salary] increase.' Holidaymakers have already been disrupted this week after EasyJet cabin crew in Spain went on strike from Wednesday, impacting dozens of flights to popular destinations including Malaga, Barcelona and Alicante. A total of 62 flights were cancelled with the airline to and from Spain on Thursday, the second day of action. More Trending The USO union has not ruled out a further indefinite strike if its demands its members to be paid equal to EasyJet employees in other countries are not met. Earlier this month, thousands marched across Spain to tell Brits to 'go home' amid concerns over unsustainable tourism at favourite holiday spots. A demonstration in Palma de Majorca saw protesters carry placards in front of beleaguered tourists reading: 'Mallorca is not your cash cow… go home' and 'your holidays, our anxiety'.

Lidl is selling a Ninja air fryer dupe in its Middle Aisle that is £80 cheaper
Scroll down to see more middle aisle bargains BARGAIN BUY Lidl is selling a Ninja air fryer dupe in its Middle Aisle that is £80 cheaper LIDL is selling a Ninja air fryer dupe in its middle aisle that is a whopping £80 cheaper this summer. Shoppers will be racing to the bargain supermarket for this kitchen essential as it hits the shelves next week. 2 The Silvercrest Kitchen Air Fryer comes with a grill and smoker 2 It's a whopping £80 cheaper than the Ninja version The Silvercrest Kitchen Air Fryer which comes with a grill and smoker can be yours for just £99.99 from July 6. That's a whopping £80 cheaper than the Ninja version making it a bargain if you're on the look out for an air fryer on a budget. The Lidl version works as a normal air fryer with the lid closed and has a 3.8 litre capacity which can fit in 1kg of chips. What's better is that it can fry your chips without the use of any additional oil or fat. You can activate the smoker separately when the lid is closed too but when opened you can operate the grill function. And if that sounds complicated to navigate, the device comes with a touch-screen display for simple operation. The air fryer comes with seven different programs for smoking, grilling, air-frying, roasting, baking, dehydrating and reheating. It's easy to clean up too as the grill plate, frying basket, plancha and drip tray are all suitable for the dishwasher. With a high-quality non-stick coating, the fryer also is highly scratch proof and has excellent abrasion and stain resistance. You can whack the temperature up to a blazing 240 degrees as well and it works from 40 degrees upwards. And if you're planning to cook something throughout the day, the timer can be set from one minute up to 12 hours. The bargain buy comes with an instruction manual and 10 recipes included and has a three-year warranty. While the Ninja Foodi Mini 6-in-1 Multi Cooker is £80 more, it only has six cooking settings and doesn't include a smoker or a grill. But the appliance does come with a bigger capacity of 4.7 litres and has seen good reviews online. One customer gave the product a five-star rating and said: "Excellent multi cooker, easy to use, cooks great in all settings. "Really pleased with it." But at £179.99 it may prove too much of an expense for some so the Lidl version provides a great alternative. The bargain retailer are selling a range of other appliances in July too. Available on the same day is the Grillmeister BBQ Pizza Oven for just £29.99. It's great for crispy pizzas or even fresh baguettes and could be the perfect addition for a garden bash this summer. And if you want to go one step further, Lidl will be selling their Grillmeister 6 Burner Gas Barbecue for £129.
