First the Mail reported on the “nightmare” of British holidaymakers on Kos having to put up with migrants fleeing from Syria and Afghanistan – now the Sun has taken another questionable line on the inconvenience global conflict is causing Brits abroad.
In what Monkey assumes was intended as a public service, the Sun on Tuesday asks: “Will Isis ruin your Mediterranean holiday?”
The subhead, “as jihadis get closer to tourist hotspots, the Sun tells you how to have a trouble-free trip” makes clear the intention as the article lists the possible impact of mass murder and oppression across Syria and Iraq on top vacation spots across the Med, interspersed with pictures of air strikes and burning buildings.
It finishes with some admittedly spot-on advice for most people looking for a calming break: “Syria, Iraq, Libya and most of Lebanon are no-go zones for Brits abroad.”
