According to Raul Martins, “there will be no consequence for tourism in Portugal.”
In comments to Lusa News Agency, the AHP chief said that Brexit just “moves things from an informal to a formal situation.”
“Britons who are in favour of the exit don’t travel as they are so British that they don’t leave” the UK, Raul Martins told Lusa.
He added that the British tourists who choose to visit will be welcomed just the same, adding that “there won’t be any barriers at customs for UK tourists” and the “British nationals who did not want Europe have held this position for some time already.”
“Britons who are in favour of the exit don’t travel as they are so British `that made me laugh, what a silly statement.The British have had enough of being tied to the Euro even though its not their failed currency and very soon I doubt the Euro will exist in some parts of Europe where it has destroyed long time employment for its people.Hotels and other alike will always make a profit but that does not mean its employees will be paid descent wage.So this bloke is talking as a fat cat.

Staggering that somebody in that position knows absolutely nothing about the people, and his customers, who live in his main target market.
