The Chief Minister Fabian Picardo left Gibraltar for London on Saturday afternoon.

Yesterday, Sunday, he attended the traditional Gibraltar Day mass at Our Lady of Dolours Servite church in Fulham after which he hosted a small reception at Fulham Palace.

Today, Monday, the Chief Minister will speak at the Gibraltar Finance Services lunch at the Guildhall which will be attended by over 300 members of London's banking, insurance and financial services community.
