Gibraltar under more bullying from Spain!

Bullying done by Spain

As each day goes by we see an increase of the different ways that Spain insists in bullying Gibraltar and the people!

No matter what everyone does to highlight and be the better person - Spain insists on a barrage of attacks from every angle possible.

No one would believe that in this day and age and under the European Union that these bullying tactics are not challenged by other countries bigger than us to Spain that is bigger than us!

One does not have to be a rocket scientist to see the behaviour from Spain towards Gibraltar and us the people is out of order. 

A good example is the picture of David and Goliath! The latest tactic from Spain is trying to divide the people in Gibraltar and twists media and words to do it.

We are all aware that a successful way to win  is to DIVIDE AND CONQUER! So as if we do not have enough to battle with we now find people are arguing between them instead of uniting against the real enemy - SPAIN!

All politicians will fight their own corner and it is very sad that any of them give more ammunition so to speak to the spanish journalist to twist and cause more divide.

I have said this numerous times - our issue is NOT the fishing - our issue is INCURSIONS BY SPANISH PARA MILITARY IN OUR BRITISH TERRITORIAL WATERS! No more no less!

The problem about the fishing by Spanish Fishermen is clear to all - we have laws and those laws have to be respected and obeyed. On the other side of the coin - we also have a right to see that the law is enforced to everyone - no matter who they are or where they come from. Lack of law enforcement draws a very thin line on corruption! So let us not go there!

The dangerous state of affairs today is that a Country called Spain who still claims our land is using every possible means to not only claim but undermine us as a people and our rights!

Spain has no jurisdiction in our land, sea or air! The failure is now from United Kingdom Government who are slacking with the use of the so called Diplomacy - something that is not seen by them to any other country - for example The Falklands - which though only having 2,000 british citizens have more protection offered to them than we get! Ask why? I can tell you the whole truth - GIBRALTAR HAS NO OIL! If we did trust me UK would invest more protection and respect of the British People of Gibraltar!

We have been British for over 300 years and yet UK and the EU and the United Nations of Human rights do not put a stop to the bullying from Spain and try to hold us to an old Treaty(Utrecht) that was no longer valid since they broke  it immediately after having made it!

We live in the 21st Century and yet a small country like ours with 30,000 British citizens have to put up with so much bullying from another country in Europe! They continue to break our laws at seas - cause frontier queues of over 2- 3 hours almost every day - they contravene so many leglislations in EU and nothing is done!

But guess what - we the people of Gibraltar will never GIVE IN or GIVE UP! We have a passion and stamina to keep on fighting for our rights! 

GIBRALTAR BELONGS TO THE PEOPLE _ OUR AIR< OUR SEA AND OUR LAND! 

WE DEMAND UK TO PUT ACTION WITH THEIR WORDS AND WE SAY TO SPAIN _ HANDS OFF AND LEAVE US ALONE!

BRITISH WE ARE AND BRITISH WE WILL STAY!

Lets fight together and not allow anymore of the "divide and conquer" from the enemy to us the people - set our politics aside and concentrate on seeing the issues as they are! SPAIN will use anything and everything to make us look back - bully us and we have to stand guard and highlight it all!
