Dear Sir,
For the biggest, most technologically advanced and most luxurious Holland America Line Cruise ship ever built, it is difficult to believe a Captain who is going to dine with middle to “upper-premium” clientele must surely have at least a modest sense of Geography and European History, particularly with Brexit the most debated subject throughout the EU for at least three years, especially the Sovereignty of the ports he will be docking at. Worst case scenario his first officer and purser surely must be sufficiently well versed, and no doubt they have all sailed through the straits of .gibraltar some time in their naval careers.

Dear Sir,
I am grateful to Joseph Lezano for expanding on the etymology of Llanito, but my comment was only an aside, and an observation that some may feel differently - for the record, I entirely agree with him. My only questioning of the term was that some years ago, a Gibraltarian in the diaspora expressed a preference for 'Janito', with the 'j' pronounced as in 'johnny', but this has not caught on.

Dear Sir,
As Ex- Convenors, Chair and Executive Committee members of Unite the Union, we are gladdened by the fact that all three Trade Unions are celebrating May Day 2019 in the relative spirit of fraternity that is both right and proper for the day – regrettably, precedent highlights that this was not always the case. Additionally, and at the insistence of the May Day stalwart, Unite the Union, this year breaks away from recent tradition where the Government of the day have addressed those gathered and put forward its own commitments to the working class during the Trade Union rally.

It was enlightening to read Mr. Ken Westmoreland's article of Panorama of the 9th of May 2019 titled: Let's Learn Llanito. Page 7, which I found to be overall, informative. Read more

Dear Sir,
It is with deep regret that the Self-Determination for Gibraltar Group learnt of the death of William Serfaty. Willie, as he was known by all who knew him, was a founder member of the Group and regularly attended all our meetings and participated in all the activities that we organised, from being part of the group that presented the Self- Determination petition to 10 Downing Street to the symbolic burial of the Brussels Agreement.

Dear Sir,
Now that the Easter Festival has gone for another year I would just like to attempt yet again, to adequately express our deep thanks and admiration to those people in Gibraltar who gladly give their time, effort and money whenever the Gibraltar Alzeimer's and Dementia Society (GADS) put on an event, activity or promotion to raise awareness of living with dementia in Gibraltar.
