The Chief Minister, Fabian Picardo, today met with the Foreign Secretary, Rt Hon Lord David Cameron, at the Foreign Office in London in order to discuss the outstanding issues and matters in the ongoing negotiation with the European Union in relation to Gibraltar.
Local dignitaries and guests met at Grand Battery House this morning to commemorate this year’s Holocaust Memorial Day. The Chief Minister Fabian Picardo gave a short speech underlining the importance of remembering the Holocaust and its unthinkable suffering.
The GSD has said that Fabian Picardo "lied to Parliament" when he said that no indirect financial assistance had been provided by the Government to the owners of the Sunborn. The Opposition has also said that the Government’s response to the Leader of the Opposition’s New Year’s Message is “extraordinary” and betrays its “nervousness” on the issue of Credit Finance Company Limited.
“The importance and significance of International Holocaust Memorial Day in the Human Rights calendar worldwide should not and must not be lost,’ Equality Rights Group has said in a statement on the first Gibraltar commemoration of the memorial day.
