Locals in Majorca fed-up with expats and tourists buying second homes on the island have told foreigners to "go to hell".

       Activists and residents have been placing the blame for the local housing crisis on tourists and second-home owners. And their fury was made once again apparent earlier this week.

       The Osborne Bull, once an advertising tool, the only one in Majorca, situated between Algaida and Montu？ri, has become a symbol for advocating various causes in recent years, reports the Majorca Daily Bulletin, with local communities using it to reflect their political and social messages.

       On Monday, the bull was found with graffiti that read: “Rich foreign property buyers go to hell”.

       The island has a housing issue and this message is a protest towards foreign investors who are often buying holiday homes in Majorca.

       Many have posted in support of the graffiti on the bull with social media images getting hundreds of comments and likes.

       However, not everyone is happy - others have expressed frustration at Majorcan sellers who have been selling properties to foreign buyers, rather than at the buyers themselves.

       Across Spain, many locals in various tourist hotspots have shared over the past year their anger at the impact mass tourism is having on their lives.

       On Sunday, Canary Islands residents stormed a tourism industry conference.

       The residents were blowing horns and chanting in protest at the impact of the ever-increasing number of holidaymakers descending on the archipelago each year.

       Locals told industry chiefs: “The Canary Islands are not for sale, they are loved and defended.”

       Crowds in Tenerife's capital called for “less cement and more foundations” amid constantly rising housing costs that are a result of Spain's booming short-term holiday let industry, with previously residential homes being turned over to short-term lets by landlords.
