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 GSD says that the Government’s “arrogant, patronising and personal attack” following what it says are the “genuine concerns” raised by the GSD as a result of Gibraltar’s ‘grey’ listing by the UK as a ‘high-risk’ country “says more about them and what they are about than it does of the GSD.”
The Government was this morning briefed by the Strategic Coordinating Group on the latest position with regards to the levels of water in Gibraltar’s reservoirs. AquaGib have advised that stock levels have not grown over the weekend as had been anticipated due to significant increase in consumption compared to an average summer weekend.
The Commissioner of Police Richard Ullger has presented Commendations to four officers who successfully handled situations in which people were trying to end their lives.
His Worship the Mayor, Mr. Christian Santos GMD hosted an exhibition by the Gibraltar Model Soldier Society at City Hall to “celebrate our Gibraltarian identity, culture and history.”
