The Spanish King needs to be careful what he suggests when he addresses Parliament. Gibraltar is not up for negotiation despite what his politicians might say or want. He is simply pandering to public sentiment in Spain as his monarchy is not exactly popular at the moment. He is beginning to follow the Argentine model of smoke screens to divert attention away from the real issues in Spain.

The question is why is this piece appearing in Mercopenguin, a British government propaganda organ supposedly devoted to America, South America and the “South Atlantic”?
