The GSD has “noted with dismay” the contents of the King of Spain’s Speech to the UK Parliament today.

The Leader of the Opposition Roy Clinton said:

“It was unfortunate that a modern Spanish monarch should address the oldest of Parliaments in such an anachronistic way in the 21st Century. Gibraltar is not a bilateral issue to be resolved between two Governments without reference to the Government or people of Gibraltar. On this both the Government and Opposition are united.”
