ELECTION 2019
By STEVEN LINARES, GSLP Liberal candidate
The GSLP Liberals have, while in Government, succeeded in defending Gibraltar’s interests in the Brexit context whilst continuing to successfully steer our economy to growth and focus on Gibraltar’s development as a world class events destination.
The Music Festival, Monkey Rocks, the Andrea Bocelli concert, join the Chess and Literary festivals as only some of the many events we now have on an annual basis, which are enriching the community and attracting business to Gibraltar too. Read more

ELECTION 2019
By Samantha Sacramento, GSLP Liberal Candidate
I am proud to belong to a party that has transformed Gibraltar. The changes in eight years are incredible, both in landscape as in philosophy.
The only problem with such tremendous progress is that it is easy to forget what Gibraltar was like before 2011. Our progress cannot be taken for granted because of this. Read more

Dear Sir,
The recent comments on GBC on longlining by a representative of the Federation of Sea Anglers cannot go unchallenged by those who have been using this method of fishing. Longlining has been a traditional fishing method in Catalan Bay since time immemorial. It has been sustainable over these many years and certain types of longlining are seasonal and geared towards different species. Read more

*From manifesto by ROBERT VASQUEZ issued yesterday:
It is imperative that Gibraltar runs smoothly, for the sake of all of us, for the public good and to ensure that our economy works properly and helps to provide money to in turn fund all the public services we need. The inter-connection of the whole system makes a well-resourced and efficient service a core concern of all and any government. I will support all policies aimed at achieving these general objectives. Read more

ELECTION 2019
By Paul Balban, GSLP Liberal Candidate
A great deal of difficult work has been carried out following the launch of the Sustainable Traffic Transport and Parking Plan (STTPP). Trying to improve our quality of life has required a challenge to the core of who we are as a people.
We love our cars, that is a fact. We have one of the highest vehicle ownership rates in the world, that is also a fact. Yet we are slowly seeing changes in the way that we move. Bus use has increased significantly and more people are walking and cycling to work and to school. Read more

ELECTION 2019
By TREVOR HAMMOND, GSD candidate
For too long now our basic quality of life, our fundamental needs have been subordinated to rushed development, to serving the interests of the few over the needs of the many. The current Government has entirely lost sight of the basic requirements of this community, in its need to tick boxes, it fails to plan strategically and instead does everything piecemeal and in a reactive way.

ELECTION 2019
By DAMON BOSSINO, GSD candidate
Openness and transparency. Words much vaunted by politicians. Words used by the GSLP/Liberals when they ushered in their supposed ‘New Dawn’ in 2011. They have failed to deliver. Their atrocious lack of openness is reflected in how our public finances are handled and in the award of public contracts. I wish to tackle both issues with you today. Read more
