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 Chief Minister will be appearing on the prestigious morning current affairs programme, Espejo Publico tomorrow on Antena 3. Mr Picardo will be interviewed ‘live’ by presenter Susana Griso at 9am.
The Ex M.O.D. Convenor and now Chairman of the Private Sector of Unite, Juan Pecino, has condemned what he describes as the “humiliation and provocation” by the Ministry of Defence towards the union and its members.
The Government has said that the advertisement by the GSD published in today's Gibraltar Chronicle and no other newspaper, “ignores all the information” set out in the Chief Minister's Budget speech and his reply to those from members of the Opposition.
