GIBRALTAR???!!!!

Post by Greg S »

The Spanish are trying to regain control of the rock>>?! Great, next thing you know Tony 'twat face' Blair will give it to them....

MR BLAIRS 'TO DO LIST':

1.) Cut armed forces
2.) Invest money in useless technology, much like the CIA did before September 11th.....
3.) Fill London full of more filthy blighters with TB and AIDS......
4.) 'HMM I KNOW.........WHY NOT GIVE GIBRALTAR BACK TO THE SPANISH........F**K IT......WHILE IM AT IT LETS GIVE THE FALKLANDS BACK TO THE ARGIES.............'

Are the people running Britain on crack at the moment or something? What the hell is going on...?

What do YOU think?

Who said he was going to give it back than? Sending Hoon over there is a fairly strong signal that he's not going to give it back. I suppose it's up to the locals, if they want to go back to Spain they should, but my guess is they won't want to go back. What's this then, you starting to bash Blair on an issue that isn't even there. :-?

Politics is a dirty game - to get Spain back into the fold would require Gibraltar going back to the Spanish, trust me.

What fold would that be?
They are already part of the EEC (?) and part of NATO.
The Gibraltese consider themselves as British.
They are about as British as the Spanish enclave in Ceuta. But they want to stay British and as far as I am concerned they should be allowed to do so.
At the recent referendum on the subject - 98% of the vote was to stay British. And before you ask, there was an 89% turnout! That beats anything that we could do here.
Gibraltar wants to stay British!

'The fold'

Hmm, well basically the UK (along with the US) are not in Spains good books at the moment. Spain does not see whats going on in Iraq as legitimate......

But thats another long story.......

Strange how the people in Gibraltar are proud of being British, yet most people in blighty couldn't care less........

There are many figures from the 2001 referendums which can be interpreted in many different ways. Ultimately, they do seem to want to stay British.

How many of you have visited Gibraltar? The streets try so hard to be British, and yet have a certain Spanish aura about them, even if it is just the laid back air. It's not like a British town, more like a bootleg town with British tradition. The Llanitos are their own people, neither British nor Spanish, somewhere in between the two. And the result is a tad...well, strange. Try fish and chips there. Not quite the same somehow.

I do not think we should give the 'island' back, however it is a very big bargaining chip as far as the Spanish are concerned.

If you've been to DisneyLand Florida, imagine the Britain bit but isolated on an island a thousand miles from their homeland. The only real attraction is cheap booze and fags.

I honestly couldn't give a toss about Blair and what you do with him, I just didn't see a reason this time.

Did you know Gibraltar was taken by a combined Dutch/British fleet? So no way you're going to give it back to those bloody w@#k!
