Yesterday afternoon at 4:24pm, Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge gave birth to a son weighing 8lbs 6oz. The baby I third in line of succession and will be formally known as His Royal Highness Prince of Cambridge.
The baby’s name has yet to be announced. The Duchess and the baby remained at St. Mary’s Hospital overnight.
The Government has issued the following statement:
The arguments being put by Mr Feetham and the GSD about the Sunborn are contemptible and untrue. Moreover, they are causing unnecessary anxiety and concern to people who are depositors in the Gibraltar Savings Bank.
The GSD has today criticised the Chief Minister for his claims in Parliament that he is entitled to draft and issue press releases in the name of public authorities, criticising the former GSD administration.
The criticism follows a Gibelec press statement released on the day of the by-election. The Party insists that ‘there is a world of difference between a public authority responding to criticisms from the Opposition against it and the Government deciding to manipulate Gibelec for its own political purposes. In addition, it is illustrative of how the Chief Minister does not appear to care about basic democratic values when he brushes aside criticism that there is a clear convention not to campaign on the day of an election by stating that if the GLSP-Liberals had issued the press release in their own name, it would have been improper but not if it was issued in the name of the Government, or the Government caused it to be issued in the name of a public authority.’
