LOTO: some disappointment re talks, but important not to compromise safety for speed
The Leader of the Opposition says there is some disappointment that nothing concrete has emerged from the latest political meetings in Brussels, after a sense of expectation had been built up.
However, Keith Azopardi acknowledges it was important not to compromise safety for speed.
He hopes for a positive conclusion to treaty negotiations and that the GSD and the rest of Gibraltar will be able to analyse the details of any agreement.

    Substituting the word "interests" for "equities" perhaps makes the interview a little easier to understand. "A sense of guilt, perhaps, that the UK brought this onto Gibraltar?" was an interesting question, particularly as Lord Cameron was the PM who gave us the referendum and it is he, as Foreign Secretary, now conducting negotiations on behalf of the UK. Cameron, however, was elected Prime Minister upon a manifesto in 2015 that promised the UK a referendum on leaving the EU. I rather resent the implication in the interviewer's question that those in the UK who voted for Brexit should feel a sense of guilt at the consequences for Gibraltar. Everyone who voted in the referendum, including the people of Gibraltar, cast their vote according to their own interests (or "equities", perhaps). Mr. Picardo is undoubtedly a skilful negotiator with the best interests of the people of Gibraltar at heart. I wish we in the UK had had someone of his calibre during our own negotiations with the EU. Whatever deal is done, however, following its approval by the people of Gibraltar and implementation, experience suggests we need to be prepared for the possibility of perverse interpretation of its clauses by the EU.

Mr Picardo David Cameron & Mr Albares & EU commission NO NO NO NO NO NO NO Don’t you understand The People of the British Rock of Gibraltar don’t want one inch of our space land, sea or air to be Spanish without our consent which will never happen & In my opinion there will be riots in our streets if anyone were to go against the wishes of the people of Gibraltar

    • @anonnemo2504
      @anonnemo2504 2 дня назад

      @@aydenthewallace That seems to be pre-judging the nature of the deal. Surely, if the deal was thought to be a good one by the majority of Gibraltarians, the vote would be in favour of it. This is an issue of such fundamental importance to the people of Gibraltar that it demands they are consulted in a referendum and, clearly, it would be iniquitous for age distribution to be a factor in deciding whether such a referendum should be held. By the way, since losing EU citizenship, are there many "Gibraltarians who live in Spain"? Loss of EU citizenship made it harder for them to stay in Spain (and within the whole Schengen area), with a maximum stay of 90 days in every 180.

      Estas negociaciones no son sobre soberanía, que para empezar, en el mundo moderno es un concepto muy difuso. No hay ningún país 100% soberano, ni siquiera China. Estas negociaciones son sobre temas concretos y prácticos, básicamente sobre dinero. Al gobierno Británico la gente de Gibraltar les importan entre poco y nada, solo les preocupa el valor militar de Gibraltar. Si los llanitos no se abren a compartir sus beneficios con la comarca de Gibraltar, si no ceden, España simplemente debe abandonar las negociaciones y dejar las cosas como están. Fueron ellos, los británicos, quienes quisieron el Brexit, esta vez los llanitos no pueden jugar la carta del victimismo. Un no-acuerdo tambiénm perjudicaría a unos 10.000 trabajadores españoles, es cierto, pero España debe velar los intereses de 49 millones de españoles y la UE por los de 400 millones de europeos. Si la genta de la Línea no encuentra trabajo, que emigre, en muchos polígonos industriales de Castilla, (Burgos, Valladolid) en Aragón, incluso en el Pais Vasco falta mano de obra. Por no hablar de Europa. Trabajo hay, lo que pasa es que no te lo llevan a la puerta de tu casa en la Bahía de Algeciras. Y los Gibraltareños quieren lo mejor de los dos mundos, UK y EU, y eso no puede ser. Si son británicos lo son con todas las consecuencias, para lo bueno y para lo malo.

    It's almost as dangerous going inshore due to all the fishing parifinalia off the Spanish coast. How about the Spanish Government instructing all the removal of the kms of lines that run from sea to shore that prevent safe navigation in contradiction to maritime laws. In the circumstances, and especially since over-fishing of tuna is more than likely a stimulus to these orcas' behaviours (though of course it is denied...surprise, surprise) you'd think some adjustments and concessions would be made by the seemingly unregulated fishing industry (eg around Barbate) to ameliorate the situation. So far, nothing has been done/changed. I suspect it won't be long before lives are lost as vessels are forced into danger zones.
