The Gibraltar Health Authority has announced that, in keeping with a manifesto commitment to improve conditions for Ambulance personnel, new, expanded accommodation has been provided for the GHA Ambulance team.
YGTV has just heard reports that the proposed European Commission team which is set to visit the Gibraltar-Spain border will now arrive within two weeks.
There are reports that the UK government is considering legal action against Spain after the continuation of what are seen as “disproportionate” border checks.
The right-wing Spanish daily ABC today carries an article on local pressure group the Defenders of Gibraltar. Calling the group “nationalist”, the ABC says that the Defenders have started an “anti-Spanish” campaign in order to justify the actions of the Government of Gibraltar.
