If Gibraltar wants to stay we should allow them & protect them. That is what decent people do.
Spanish want to force Gibraltar to become part of them. Should we let them.
The correct response to this was for the British Government to have said to the EU 'I thought you wanted to do this professionally'…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Originally posted by vetran View PostOf Course I would. If there is an impact on the UK people then that needs to be discussed but we have to respect democracy. Pity the EU & some bremoaners don't.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Pity some of the Brexiters are blaming the EU and Remain voters, while denying the same people democracy.
The remain voters are blaming brexit for Spain's land grab.
How are we denying democracy?Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

The "Democratic will" of the people of Gibraltar is shown above.
An overwhelming vote in favour of remaining British............with all that this means...........including the popular will to Brexit.
Nobody is denying the Gibraltarians democracy..............except the Spanish, aided and abetted by the EU it seems.
Do try and keep up.

Have you noticed how students are not protesting anymore ever since they have been saddled with student loans? The last time this country saw a proper protest must have been the Poll Tax riots.Comment
