The Argies and the Spanish: two countries joined by common bad manners.
I hope Hague tells him to go sling his hook and see if he catches any fish on it, but not in Gibraltar waters.
That’s the same fingering posturing as on the other blog,

It is taking the piss a bit. Spanish fishermen now own most of the UK fishing fleet, and seem set to take over the Falklands one. I'm shocked they don't already own the Gibaltarian fleet as it's on her doorstep.

See how better it is when you construct proper sentences even though you are still mistaken, you are the old Marcos, aren't you?
The border between the colony and Spain SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN OPEN. CLOSE IT DOWN!! If The Gibs want supplies let them bring it in by ship...and not through Spanish waters!... Enough of these parasites who have homes in Spain, party in Spain, do their shopping in Spain CLOSE THE GATES NOWWWWWW.. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. SPAIN STAND UP TO THESE PARASITES...
May 29th, 2012 - 12:33 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@Aussie Sunshine .. what's with the ALL CAPS howling? CLOSE THE GATES NOWWWWWW.. ... my god.
May 29th, 2012 - 01:48 pm - Link - Report abuse 0So these people who party and shop in Spain (in other words, bring in money to stimulate the Spanish economy, which is in dire need or stimulus right now) are parasites? What planet are you living on?
9 The thing is this... These people loathe everything Spanish and yet like to cross over to Spain to enjoy everything Spanish!! Under these circumstances the border should be closed to these individuals, and let them sun tan in their beaches. Even if Spain is loosing out in not receiving economic input from Gibraltar. Besides the Russians are moving into the Costa Del Sol who needs the Gibs.
May 29th, 2012 - 02:09 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@ aussie sunshine... considering that the majority of Gibraltarians can speak Spanish (and enjoy visiting Spain), it's a bit weird to say they loathe everything Spanish -- and heated feelings aside, it's almost certainly not true.
May 29th, 2012 - 02:14 pm - Link - Report abuse 0It's just that they prefer the Spanish as neighbours rather than masters.

All you do is spout hatred no input to the debate. Again nothing spain can do, we had the border closed for years and still survived when the nasty Spanish Right Wing dicatotrship was in power. Troll on, and remember haaaaate all thing British because you are humiliated in defeat and envy.
