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.
The Musicians Association of Gibraltar (MAG) says it is concerned about the cancellation of all of the gigs taking place at a venue in Ocean Village due to “a few complaints”. MAG says this venue has been “working very well” with many of its members, “providing both locals and tourists with top entertainment using the talent available in Gibraltar.” The group says that, unfortunately, the venue had to end the live shows in fear of further complaints which could have further repercussions.
At around 07:30 today, the Royal Gibraltar Police commenced a chase at sea with a suspect RHIB. The RHIB was first spotted at Emerson’s Place by an RGP land patrol. The RGP Marine Section then took over and immediately deployed to the area in order to intercept the RHIB. There followed a high speed pursuit in the waters off the western side. During this time, bales were constantly being thrown from the RHIB.
