A POPULATION known only as ‘non-Britons’ is also fleeing from the fires currently engulfing Rhodes, it has emerged.
The mysterious demographic, hitherto unknown to the UK media, is as equally susceptible to the raging wildfires currently sweeping across the Greek island as their plucky British counterparts.
International studies expert Dr Julian Cook said: “Little is known about non-Britons. Where do they come from? What language do they speak? Why do they bother, when English is easier?
“But evidence is emerging to suggest they suffer hardships just like the British, and apparently some of them even live in Rhodes despite it being a holiday place.
“In which case what they are going through – a destroyed home, not just an abandoned suitcase – is arguably more severe and newsworthy. But as they’re such mysterious, shadowy figures we focus on the more sympathetic Brits and their tragic ruined fortnights.
“Our news cycle will have moved on in a couple of days, but for them this is a life-changing catastrophe which will take ages to recover from. I imagine they’ll focus on rebuilding our hotels first.”
Sun reader Wayne Hayes said: “God, have you seen this? Gary Lineker’s on holiday with his ex.”
