Gather September was a relatively good month for tourism on Kef, charter flights arrivals 10.73% up on September, 2015... not sure if the tourists brought any money with 'em, tho.

A black & white puppy with a docked tail has been found wandering around Skala, anyone who knows who it belongs to (or can give it a good home) please call 26710 83578 - cute little thing, apparently.

Just had a very quick look at the figures and it seems as though the increase in UK arrivals during September was a 'mere' 2.25% and arrivals from all the other countries were up on last September. UK arrivals still accounted for 66.86% of total September charter arrivals.

But will they all be eligible for Benefits or will they just have "tolerated" status?

As the proposal is dependent on EU States granting the same status to Brits residing in the EU, I'd guess it's the former

Whether a migrant is ever "tolerated" is a matter for a separate discussion
