Guardia Civil attempt to intimidate Locals at Sea!

Guardia Civil attempt to intimidate Locals at Sea!

Mrs A Currer posted to highlight to everyone their recent negative experience.

We have family and friends (UK, Swiss and Dutch) staying with us at the moment and my husband took them out on our boat to see the dolphins in BGTW. They noticed a GC boat coming at them at speed and when it stopped the guardias asked them if they had been fishing and whether they had caught anything. The GC, incidentally, were filming them. A huge thank you to the Defence Police who came to the rescue and to the RGP who escorted the GC away.

This has to be raised with our Governor and FCO and UK Government – the Guardia Civil targeted our Dolphins boats last week and now are trying to intimidate locals! 

This should not be tolerated!

CM TO TAKE LEGAL ACTION AGAINST 'MANOS LIMPIAS'
Fabian Picardo has instructed his solicitors to commence proceedings in the Supreme Court of Gibraltar against the Spanish right wing group Manos Limpias.
The group had issued a complaint addressed to the European Commission against the Chief Minister of Gibraltar, Fabian Picardo and the Governor of Gibraltar, complaining of alleged breaches of EU environmental law and the law of the sea. At the foot of the complaint, Manos Limpias made a defamatory statement about the Chief Minister.
Mr Picardo sought a withdrawal by Manos Limpias of the defamatory statement, but this had not happened and, in a statement, he now confirms he will be taking legal action.

'Don't drop guard on fascism': EU to Spain

Published: 02 Sep 2013 16:54 GMT+02:00 |

The European Union (EU) has reminded Spain of the need to take action against fascism after the issue was raised by Catalan deputies in the European Parliament.

"The flagrant and intentional exoneration, negation or trivialization of crimes" committed by totalitarian regimes "must result in legal punishment," the European Commission's Vice-President Viviane Reding said on Monday.

The parliamentary comments from the EU Vice-President, also the EU's Justice Commissioner, came after several Catalan parties denounced the participation of the representative of the Spain's central government in Catalonia, María de los Llanos de Luna, for honoring Spain's volunteer Blue Division which fought for Hitler in World War Two.
Llanos de Luna handed the group a certificate of thanks during a ceremony marking the 169th anniversary of Spain's Civil Guard Police Force, Catalonia's El Periódico newspaper reported on Monday.

Some thirty groups took part in the event, including members of the Blue Division.
But Llanos de Luna's participation caused outrage among many of Catalonia's political groups.

The left-wing pro-independence ERC party said her act "glorified Nazism".
In an official response to comments on the issue from four Catalan Euro MPs, Reding said: "all member states of the EU are obliged to impose penal sanctions against deliberate public incitement, to violence and hatred against groups or people for reasons of their race, colour, religion, background or national or ethnic origin.

The Commissioner added that from 2014 would have the power to act against member states that did not impose such punishment.

Spain's ruling Popular Party (PP) recently announced that any members displaying fascist symbols or performing Nazi-style salutes would face fast-track expulsion from the party.
The move came after several members of the PP's youth wing were photographed displaying the nationalist Spanish flag used during the rule of Spanish dictator Francisco Franco.

In other cases, Nazi salutes were performed.

Last week the news reported how Guardia Civil are being told to treat coloured people differently, their youngsters are displaying fascists supporting groups! 

Should not surprise anyone because if a country as big as SPAIN is allowed by EU and the United Nations of Human rights and the UK and the FCO to bully Gibraltar a small country with only 30,000 British people what can you expect?

Spain is being allowed to do and say whatever it wants with no consequence and we all know what an outcome like that will lead to! History tells us all what happen to another Country that allowed their Leader to do what he wanted no matter what and ignored the plight of many Jews!

If Spain and its government are not stopped who knows what else they can do and will do – there is no excuse to allow this to continue and turning a blind eye is the same as agreeing with the treatment and the bullying! Spain is creating hate – inciting violence and only using their Pride that Gibraltar is not SPANISH and from the people of Gibraltar we tell SPAIN loud and clear GIBRALTAR WILL NEVER BE SPANISH!

This is who we are BRITISH GIBRALTARIANS AND PROUD!
