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 has now admitted that the annual rental cost of the new St Mary’s school will be in excess of £1.1 million. The party says that, instead of making full disclosure of the terms of the arrangement the Government has resorted instead in its reply to the “usual mix of insults and smokescreens at a time of public financial crisis.”
The Government says it cannot understand why the Opposition persist in “raising non-issues and trying to deceive the public almost every time that they issue a statement.”
On the 21st July 2021, HM Government of Gibraltar issued a press release informing the public of the new COVID-19 vaccination certificate, which has been issued in the same format as the NHS COVID pass letter.
