Amsterdam launches stay away ad campaign targeting young British men – BBC News
A digital discouragement campaign targeting young British men is being pushed out by the Dutch city’s council.
It comes as part of efforts to clean up Amsterdam’s raunchy reputation as Europe’s most liberal party capital.
The online ads, highlighting the risks associated with the excessive use of drugs and booze, show young men staggering in the street handcuffed by police, finger-printed and having their mugshots taken.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

I definitely agree that there is a portion of young British men who go over there and make fools of themselves which then tars all men of that age with the same brush which I hate. The sad truth of the matter is that the types of individuals who are perpetrating these acts won't care and will carry on doing them while other genuine tourists who want to experience the real Amsterdam are going to be judged and glared at wherever they go.
I also don't agree that they have used that blokes face in their ads that's now being plastered all over the news and the internet, he probably did some stupid things and should be dealt with as such but showing his face everywhere, is that really necessary?

Yep that's it then other countries then they will ban families. It's all about control. Limiting air flights for us, ulez, electric cars, Covid rubbish.
I said in 2015 about all this to my friends and family. I said they would limit our freedoms to just being able to go to work and home and that other things would follow.
Prices of bills going up. Keeping people down and limiting freedoms. We was always going to leave the eu even if remain had of won they would say leave won.
It's all about limiting our freedoms while allowing mass immigration.
They have bigger plans yet.

As a Brit who detests the lad culture in our country and dreams of moving abroad, I fully support this movement. I don’t want them in my country either! It’s a shame there’s very little pride or dignity left in our culture, the UK could be such a great country otherwise. I’m sick of these parasites that litter our streets nowadays, can’t seem to go anywhere without having to be ready to defend yourself.

If governments were keen to stop budget airlines charging so litle, they would do it right now, but they don't for financial reasons more than ever post-pandemic in order to balance covid losses. Instead governments invite and promote their nations conscient of the drawbacks resulting from that.
Is quite a grey area taking though actions when turism means a very considerable source of income.

Don't tell anyone but if you come to Adelaide South Australia we've got marijuana just as good as Amsterdam it's extremely cheap as long as you don't smoke it in front of the police you'll fine and we have beautiful beaches where you can relax with the sun setting over the beach while you're getting stoned lots of good wine it certainly worth coming here instead of there

Er is niets waard daar in zeer arme piepkleine kikkerlandje Nederland, dieven landje en blijft zo voor eeuwig.
Dat zeg alles over bogans uit Australië op Bali.
Europe, western world in general including present day Russia through their history, were and will always be very poor parts of the world, west is where the sun sets, dark ages where they belong eternally, from their food, natural resources, everything, even their brains and abilities are very limited, very poor and their Karma is endless to their next generations, for us Indonesia the real global superpower they've been drawing too small on the world map since Mercator projection 1569, Real Indonesia is Huge as Russia, they're just another dumb brainless heartless animals stuck inside their tiny cages their entire life not a complete multiracial not multilingual never been living around the world all alone since childhood.
Real Rich will never do anything they've been doing to us Indonesia up today, those thieves, murderers, etc eternal criminals even their upcoming descendants.
