If only the Spanish had got far enough in the World cup to unravel a banner and get a small fine.

Hows that Spanish princess getting on with her corruption allegations? Seems she might be well at home in Argentina ! Cough.

Jul 28th, 2014 - 02:21 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Oh dear: the “Radical anti-capitalist Andalusian Workers Union announces plans to stage an 'occupation' of the Rock in August”
Jul 28th, 2014 - 07:51 pm - Link - Report abuse 0This bunch of pussies don’t know how they are going to get into Gib: the chief numpty “union spokesman Diego Canamero said the protest would take place on August 29.... We haven’t decided yet; we’re aware there’s a large security presence at the border but we’ll find a way round it.”
Let’s hope it involves being target practice for the squaddies and arriving face down on the groin.
Have a laugh for yourself at:

Which affects Spanish workers that can't get jobs in their own country more than it affects Gibraltarians.
And although Gib would be adversely affected by the UK leaving the EU, these Spanish actions are more likely to persuade Brits to leave the EU.
As the UK is a major net contributor to the EU, another new member with the economic input of the UK (perhaps Scotland-though I doubt they could afford £50 million per day), would have to be found to fund Spain's scrounging.
Also, Spanish boats would not be allowed to fish in British waters leading to a huge drop in revenue.
And if Scotland gets independence, it's Catalonia next, (the wealthiest part of Spain).
And Catalonia are against the Spanish bullying of Gibraltar.
So the border delays are a huge own goal, and Spain's whinging about bad environmental practice in Gibraltar has been proved to be a pack of lies by the wannabe Francos.
