What is wrong with Brits abroad?

Two British women have been arrested after a drunken rampage 30,00ft up in the air ended with one of them attempting to open the cabin door, screaming: “I want some fresh air!” In the same weekend, the mayor of Faliraki was celebrating the absence of British holidaymakers at the Greek holiday resort. The Guardian quoted him as saying: “There are far fewer Britons, which means no rapes, no accidents, no drunken debauchery, no going on the rampage. I'm so relieved.”

Are the Brits really the worst behaved when abroad? What compels us to get so drunk and behave so badly? Share your thoughts.

    The problem of the BINGE DRINKING still exists. which ever way yiou view this it is bad for your health and the NHS will bear the cost of trying to put matters right.
    If it is not restrained by people themselves they will play right in to the hands of groups like the extremist Muslims or the Salvation Army

    I am irish and like a drink. I never get involved in any fights, but like the relaxed attitude of many Brit women to sex on holiday. If you can't pull on holiday, you must be gay! Of course you have to have loads of condoms with you on holiday. The women I have sex with are hardly the type I am going to marry and bring home to meet my mother!

    Having been to most of the worst places listed I have to say that although the Brits are bad they are by no means the worst, they just get reported about more. Anyone seen a drunken Finn?
    on a separate note there is a lot more drunken behaviour in places other than in Middlesbrough and take offence that you would comment as such.

    Perhaps the local Police in the resorts where this is happening hold the solution. Arrest them, gaol them for thduration of their holiday and then stick them on aplane back home. Would they go back and do it again?
