With people like the CBF about, we will never achieve our goals on the question of our seas
Last Wednesday evening, on Newswatch, we witnessed once again, a high ranking officer, in this case the Commander British Forces Cdr Tim Henry, take us a step backwards. He was very genuinely asked by the Head of News, if he recognized and understood our anxieties over the constant illegal incursions into out British Gibraltar territorial Waters, to which in his reply, he not only went back to the old and well worn chestnut of “safe passage;” but furthermore thought there was nothing unusual about these sort of goings on.

Gibraltar is truly blessed. It has a great many influential friends abroad; or certainly well connected; both in the UK and in America. I no longer feel like we walk alone, as I felt some years back when I sometimes despaired at too little engagement. Time as always of course, will see the fruition of good intentions. The relationships fostered and bonds formed have come about through years of lobbying by our Government leaders. This is an indisputable fact! Groundwork and hard graft have gained us this welcome support which must give us much comfort and weight in the political arena. Read more

Dear Sir,
I would refer to the letter of Mr. Joseph Lezano on the 14th August, referring to recommendation in letter from Mr. John Culatto dated 29th November, 2013, to retain the Queens Cinema and up-date it to the latest standards for the community. Read more

The media loves to have its fun and sometimes enjoys presenting Ministers as inept and comical. But there are those of us who believe that in general; putting aside the quixotic and the eccentric; including one such as Boris Johnson of whom so much derogatory character description has filled the columns of newspapers and political chat; it can be said that there is always a great deal of method behind the apparent, shall we say, quirkiness. Some may even venture to consider they have not come across a man with better motives, for the trouble he causes. Read more

Living close to heaven
The more I look to out hometown and see the infrastructure that has been, and is being laid down for our youth to prosper and thrive, makes me realize that they live in absolute heaven! When once our talented youth had to look to their families primarily to provide for them to go abroad and learn their craft; when many would have given anything to be able to go to university, or as is known today as Uni; let alone their preferred choice of university; this now is a thing of the past!

Dear sir,
Reference to GBC news report on TV of the 8TH of August 2019 about The Queen’s Cinema and its imminent demolition. It’s rather hurtful to say the least to hear on TV... “That when the site went out to expressions of interest on October 2017 nobody suggested keeping the cinema building”. Read more

Climate change is without doubt the hot topic of our times and something I have dedicated time to in previous articles. It has been said that in the last decades, we have done more damage when we have known what we were doing, than we did all these many years ago when we didn’t have a clue. Read more

There’s no way of whitewashing, downplaying or making the current security situation any less intimidating, then what I believe, is the current situation, where the Gibraltar public have often, not just now, been misled where ‘Security Threat Levels’ are concerned. Particularly in the last two weeks or since the Grace 1 Iranian tanker came into our lives. Read more

The EU; an organisation which we had held in high regard and notions of upstanding Europeans, with the highest set of values and principles; much to our chagrin, we have found out that it’s no more ethical than an Old Boys Network! As the French politician Djordre Kuzmanic puts it “those who believe in Democracy should aim at tearing the EU down, not reforming it!” Read more

Having a walk around the site of the proposed new development to he called VICTORIA KEYS, I noticed a terrible stench in the atmosphere of rotten fish. On exploring further, I noticed that a number of huge pontoons full of dead mussels attached to their underside have been left for months on end to rot in the sun. Read more
