    Argentina and Spain should attack the UK at the same time, no more sovereignty disputes.

    but how do you suggest they do this, spain has had over 300 years just to march across the boarder , thats about a couple of yards. and failed to do it,
    Argentina has over 100 years, and only tried once, and got beat very badly and humiliated,
    and if im correct, most argies on here does not even like the spannish, so how do you suggest they come to gether and attack the uk.
    argentina has over 8,000 miles to come, and the spannish will get no further that the wash. next idea please .

    Well done Martian, a typical off the wall comment that just makes you look thick.

    As for the article, also typically a lot of words with no real substance..... still no trilateral talks scheduled .... and the last that were have not taken place. The Gibraltar Government are more than a match for Spain and sovereignty will never be discussed. Independence maybe!

    to be fair, Gibraltar has an advantage over the Falklands, as it is on the main land, there future may depend on if the British stay in Europe or not, if we come out, will she follow as a [bot] or will she wish to stay, if say the EU, offered guaranteed independence with the EU,
    but I think that when the British come out, Gibraltar will follow, if anything just to piss off the Spanish ??

    Ah but at the signing of the european convention , they agree to respect all existing foreign dependancies, why else do you think european law makers cant force a british handover, spain relies totally on british co-operation. They cant enforce sanctions like argentina is making up like decree 256, as european law prevents it.

    you may well be right. but as you know the Spanish and there ofspring cant wait to humiliate Britain. I don’t trust the Spanish at all.
    or the politicians slowly reducing everything, but my point was if we left the EU, what Gibraltar would do.
