European Commission Executive Vice-President Maroš Šefčovič, Spanish Minister for Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation José Manuel Albares and UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy, together with the Chief Minister of Gibraltar Fabian Picardo, met in Brussels earlier today.
The GSD has said that the Chief Minister’s decision to send a letter to residents of Alameda Estate is a move which “confirms the view of many that Gibraltar is being led by a politician who has a greater interest in his popularity than in doing the right thing and getting the job done.” The Chief Minister has written personally, on No. 6 letterhead, to the residents of the Estate in response, says the GSD, to the postcards sent by the Opposition seeking the views of residents on the location of the fair at Grand Parade.
Equality Rights Group Chairman Felix Alvarez and Secretary Charles Trico last week presented an appreciation bouquet to the Minister for Equality “in thanks and sincere recognition of the committed work towards equality and human rights which she has and continues to exert for the community.”
The Government has replied to the latest accusations made by the GSD by stating that the Chief Minister has “not made any concession to Spain” in relation to reclamation or anything else calling Danny Feetham’s criticism of a remark made by Mr Picardo during a recent session of Direct Democracy “irresponsible and ill-considered…purposely misleading and wrong”.
