Gibraltar’s representation at the Labour Party Conference continued yesterday evening with the Gibraltar Reception hosted by the Chief Minister Fabian Picardo and featuring a keynote speech by the UK Minister for Europe and the Overseas Territories Stephen Doughty MP.
In response to the GSD’s recent statement on their invitation to appear on GBC’s Viewpoint yesterday evening the Government has insisted that GBC ‘is bound to implement the Gibraltar Regulatory Authority’s Code on due accuracy, due impartiality and due prominence when assembling a panel for debate that includes political representation.’
Today marked the final day of the RGP mid term children’s camp, with the group receiving their certificates signifying they completed the weeklong course. Today saw the children joined by Superintendent Ullger and the School Liaison officers at the Leisure Centre, playing bowling and eating lunch in appropriate Halloween attire.
Due to urgent remedial works required at the RGP’s Central Police Station in Irish Town a temporary Police Office will be set up in what used to be the Housing Reporting Office at the Northern side of the City Hall at John Mackintosh Square.
The GSD is stunned by the attitude of the Chief Minister towards the freedom of press and the rights of people to hold a debate democratically.
The GSD had been invited to send a representative to tonight’s Viewpoint programme and had elected to send Marlene Nahon, an executive member of the party and as many will know, our candidate at the 2012 by election.
