Disclaimer & comment rulesit seems all Spain and Argentina have done, in terrorising, threatening and intimidating the Falkland's and Gibraltar, is to bring them on to the world stage, and thus making it impossible for them to steal them,

Mar 29th, 2014 - 03:01 am - Link - Report abuse 0Yes, they think that by kicking the Falklands and Gibraltar continuously they will stay on the floor. In fact as you point out it actually makes them more determined to get off the floor and fight back.
But then the Latino mentality is that if you bully someone weaker you will beat them not taking into account that the British are dangerous when our asses are being kicked.
IN fact when people are being' nice' to Britons that is when the British are at their weakest.
The Gibraltarians and Falkland Islanders will be increasingly recognised around the world as a result.
Thanks be to Spain and Argentina for this.
Will Algeciras hold a vigil for the Catalans too...

Mar 31st, 2014 - 02:36 am - Link - Report abuse 0no proper schools.
no universities.
not even a ct scanner.
but they think they are important.
must be a joke
I wonder what the welcome is like for Argentina when they go to Washington, more specifically to the Courts to defend their reneging on debts?
Mar 31st, 2014 - 04:38 am - Link - Report abuse 0Oh no! Not the missing CT scanner argument!
Mar 31st, 2014 - 09:01 am - Link - Report abuse 0Lol!
Total fail. You are only good at making yourself look stupid.
A university on the Falklands? Ask them, they would probably say they don't need one.
This thread is about Gibraltar anyway. Fool.

I thought this was about Gibraltar? Where
Apr 01st, 2014 - 12:51 pm - Link - Report abuse 0- we have a CT scanner
- we don't live in cabins
- we have proper schools
- we don't have a university
But then, we can't justify a university with 30,000 inhabitants. So, they go to universities in the UK. Proper universities, with good reputations. And their fees and travel are paid for by the Gibraltar government.
So what's your point,paulcedron?
