Policies that are too welcoming to expats with high incomes and foreign remote workers that like sunny weather and cheap everything.

Also: air b&b’s and cheap ryanair flights

I suppose Portugal could do with a couple more cities with over a million inhabitants. It goes huge Lisbon, then relatively small Porto.

But Portugal should be for the Portuguese, I feel like the Algarve is mostly Brits and Dutchies

I feel like "X should be for the X-people" is maybe not the best phrasing, considering how that tends to play out throughout history.

I feel there is a distinction between, let's call them 'original inhabitants', being xenophobic towards refugees and those inhabitants being economically unable to live in their own country due to rich folks buying vacation homes
