The GSLP Youth Section would like to congratulate all six students who have been selected to travel to the United Nations Committee of 24 - New York and Washington, under the program which was promised in the GSLP manifesto in 2011. This is, they say, another example of how the Government, is continually fulfilling Manifesto commitments which, in turn, are having “huge positive effects on the people of Gibraltar.”

The Government has insisted that it takes a very serious view of the campaign of hostility against Gibraltar and its people, which continues in Spain.
This follows a series of irresponsible and untrue accusations made by Ministers and officials of the Spanish state against Gibraltar, which have in turn predictably been exaggerated further by certain sectors of the Spanish media and have now sparked off a climate of hatred against Gibraltarians.
Two new recruits from the Royal Gibraltar Regiment recently passed out at the Infantry Training Centre (ITC) in Catterick.
Private Ashley Gibbins aged 17 and Private Alex McKay aged 21 have both successfully completed their 26 week Combat Infantryman Course. All infantry soldiers in the British Army must complete the course which teaches the soldier a number of skills from war-fighting tactics through to ceremonial drill. It is designed to ensure that the newly qualified solider is fully prepared to join their chosen unit and is ready for operational deployment.
