If they try anything, they’ll get what the Argies got in '82!

The trouble is it would have to be over in about 45 minutes as we have no ammo left after sending it all to the Ukraine so we would have to mobilise 500 stag/hen party do`s into buses and ship them over to sort the Spanish out

They won't need to invade, they can cripple Gibraltar with petty bureaucracy.

What are they waiting for then? If it was that easy they’ve have tried that already, they’ve been after it for years.

We were in the EU. Now we aren't.

They have more leverage than they did in 2013 when they effectively blocked land travel.

what for over 300 years there was me thinking it was just 50 and its actually been in British hands longer than it was in Spanish hands

Elections in Spain soon and it's likely to be a right wing coalition. The particularly hard right part of the likely coalition is keen to re-take Gibraltar.
I see trouble ahead.

Spain

The. X facist state run by dictator Franco
Helped imo power by Hitler and Mussolini

They should concern themselves with Catalonia not Gibraltar

These fruit cakes issued an arrest warrant for Pinochet ( afaik) how many X Franco supporters / henchman did Spain arrest and put on trial

Yes exactly

None

 

[transam]

Soain they could not organise a booze up in a brewery

Spent millions on new trains only problem was the fruit cakes never had any tape measures and the trains were to wide for the tunnels

So again, if it’s that easy, why haven’t they tried it since we left the EU?

Because while Spain wants Gibraltar it wasnt a priority for the current left wing government. So they didn't push very hard.
