Some more than 260,000 British reside in Spain; in fact, Spain is home to the largest British population, and therefore the most vulnerable to Brexit, of the entire EU. In the Canary Islands, where more than 5 million English tourists visit us a year, some 27,000 reside, most of them retired and with a residence permit. According to the latest confirmed data, about 8,000 British reside in Lanzarote
