The Hon J J Bossano, Chief Minister
Mr Chairman, Thank you once again for giving me the opportunity to address the Special Committee on behalf of the people of Gibraltar. I would like first to take this opportunity to place on record my appreciation for the warmth of the reception I had from your predecessor, His Excellency, Ambassador Renagi Renagi Lohia, on my first appearance before this Committee in 1992 and indeed on my second one in 1993. I can assure the Committee that I was made to feel at home and amongst friends from the first day that I came. That encouraged me to look to this Committee – and it encouraged the people of Gibraltar to look to this Committee – as the forum where we could express our deep seated feelings on having our right as a colonial people recognised and vindicated. I should like to say that I have reported this back in Gibraltar faithfully. Indeed the text of my presentation and my appearance before the Special Committee has been transmitted over Gibraltar television and widely covered by our own press. In doing this, I believe we have been making a small contribution towards the fulfilment of Resolution 43/46 of the 22 November 1988 of the General Assembly on the dissemination of information on decolonisation which called for the widespread and continuous publicity to be given to the work of the United Nations in the field of decolonisation and in particular to the work of the Special Committee. A Resolution, of course, which the administering power voted against, but which the territorial Government in Gibraltar fully supports. -

Melissa G. Moyer ANALYSIS OF CODE-SWITCHING IN GIBRALTAR Tesi doctoral dirigida per la Dra. Aránzazu Usandizaga Departament de Filologia Anglesa i de Germanística Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona 1992 To Jesús, Carol, and Robert ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The ¡dea of studying Gibraltar was first suggested to me by José Manuel Blecua in 1987 when I returned from completing a master's degree in Linguistics at Stanford University. The summer of that year I went back to California and after extensive library searches on language and Gibraltar, I discovered that little was known about the linguistic situation on "The Rock". The topic at that point had turned into a challenge for me. I immediately became impatient to find out whether it was really true that Gibraltarians spoke "a funny kind of English" with an Andalusian accent. It was José Manuel Blecua's excellent foresight and his helpful guidance throughout all stages of the fieldwork, writing, and revision that has made this dissertation possible. Another person without whom this dissertation would not have been completed is Aránzazu (Arancha) Usandizaga. As the official director she has pressured me when I've needed pressure, but she has also known when to adopt the role of a patient adviser. Her support and encouragement are much appreciated. I am also grateful to the English Department at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona chaired by Aránzazu Usandizaga and Andrew Monnickendam who granted me several short leaves from my teaching obligations in order to carry out the fieldwork on which this research is based. The rest of the English Department gang has provided support and shown their concern at all stages. -
Archeacon of Gibraltar and Archdeacon of Italy and Malta
The Bishop in Europe: The Right Reverend Dr. Robert Innes The Suffragan Bishop in Europe: The Right Reverend David Hamid ARCHEACON OF GIBRALTAR AND ARCHDEACON OF ITALY AND MALTA Statement from the Bishops The Diocese in Europe is the 42nd Diocese of the Church of England. We are by far the biggest in terms of land area, as we range across over 42 countries in a territory approximately matching that covered by the Council of Europe, as well as Morocco. We currently attract unprecedented interest within the Church of England, as we are that part of the Church that specifically maintains links with continental Europe at a time of political uncertainty between the UK and the rest of Europe. Along with that, we have been in the fortunate position of being able to recruit some very high calibre lay and ordained staff. To help oversee our vast territory we have two bishops, the Diocesan Bishop Robert Innes who is based in Brussels, and the Suffragan Bishop David Hamid who is based in London. We have a diocesan office within Church House Westminster. We maintain strong connections with staff in the National Church Institutions. Importantly, and unlike English dioceses, our chaplaincies pay for their own clergy, and the diocese has relatively few support staff. Each appointment matters greatly to us. The diocesan strategy was formulated and approved over the course of 2015. We are emphasising our commitment to building up congregational life, our part in the re- evangelisation of the continent; our commitment to reconciliation at every level; and our particular role in serving the poor, the marginalised and the migrant. -
Brexit Referendum in Gibraltar. Result and Effect Northern Ireland7 with the Average Turnout of 70,9%
Białostockie Studia Prawnicze 2019 vol. 24 nr 1 DOI: 10.15290/bsp.2019.24.01.07 Bartłomiej H. Toszek University of Szczecin [email protected] ORCID ID: http://orcid.org/ 0000-0003-2989-7168 Brexit Referendum in Gibraltar. Result and Eff ect Abstract: Almost complete unanimity of the small Gibraltar community during 2016 referendum on Brexit remained nearly unnoticed because of including this British Overseas Territory into “combined electoral region” with South West England where most of people were in favour of the United Kingdom withdrawing from the European Union. No political diff erences with the UK (i.e. England and Wales) but concern about future possibilities of economic development outside the Single Market stimulated an intense discussion among the Gibraltarians. Th e vision of being non-subject of the EU’s four freedoms (i.e. damage or lost present prosperity basis) would force Gibraltar to re-orientate its economic relations especially by creating and developing new trade links which could gradually replace the existing ones. Despite that Gibraltarians have consequently rejected Spanish proposals of remaining inside the Single Market for the price of sharing sovereignty between the UK and Spain. It is therefore beyond doubt that the people of Gibraltar can be characterised as more British than European. Keywords: Brexit, European Union, Gibraltar, United Kingdom Th e specifi city of Gibraltar’s referendum on Brexit expressed itself not only because it was the fi rst time for any British Overseas Territory (BOT) to participate in the United Kingdom-wide referendum but also because the Gibraltarians were straight included in the decision-making process related to one of the most important question in the UK’s modern history. -

Gibraltar became British in 1704 and is a self-governing territory of the United Kingdom which covers 6.5 square kilometers, including the port and harbour. It is believed that Gibraltar has been used as a harbour by seafarers for thousands of years with evidence dating back at least three millennia to Phoenician times; however up until the late 19th Century it provided little shelter for vessels. Refer to Figure 1 which shows the coast line along the western side of Gibraltar with the first structure known as the ‘Old Mole’ on the northern end of the town. Refer to figure 1 below. Location of the ‘Old Mole’ N The Old Mole as 1770 Figure 1 Showing the harbour with the first harbour structure, the ‘Old Mole’ and the structure in detail as in 1770.

HRPP577 1 Bernard Bonfiglio, Doug Cresswell, Dr Darren Fa, Dr Geraldine Finlayson, Christopher Tovell The modern Port of Gibraltar occupies a uniquely important strategic location, demonstrated by the many naval battles fought at and for the peninsula. -
The Red Plaques of Gibraltar
THE RED PLAQUES OF GIBRALTAR This document has been compiled by: Julia Harris Contact on: [email protected] Date completed: May 2014 THANKS TO: - Gail Francis-Tiron for her help when needed - Pepe Rosado for reading this and making his valued comments - Claire Montado for giving me some of the older photos to use - My parents for their gentle ‘reminders’ to get this finished and proof reading! INTRODUCTION: These cast iron red plaques were placed around Gibraltar between 1959 and 1975 in possibly the first attempt to present the rocks history to visitors and residents. They were the work of the Gibraltar Museum Committee which at the time was under the chairmanship of the Hon. Mrs Dorothy Ellicott O.B.E., J.P. (see appendix III). Modern information boards will perhaps replace them (see ‘Future’ section below), but I hope this will not happen. They are their own piece of Gibraltar’s history. When I first noticed and started taking photos of these red plaques I looked for a record of how many there were to find. After speaking to The Heritage Trust and Tourist Board I was told there was not an up to date, completed list. So, here is mine, consisting of 49 plaques, some in situ, some not. There could be more around the rock, or in storage, as there are details of up to 53 in a document attached, dated October 1977, (see Appendix I). From this list there are 43 that I have found and are on mine, another 10 I did not find (some I know have been removed from site with no details of where they are stored) and there are 4 that I found that are not on it. -
Shankland Searches Gibraltar for Final Norm by IM San Shankland February 7, 2010
Shankland Searches Gibraltar for Final Norm by IM San Shankland February 7, 2010 It feels like it was just yesterday that I was hurrying through Staples to try to find some European power converters before I had to go to the airport to make the lengthy trip to Gibraltar, the home of the 2010 Gibtelecom Masters tournament. Just for fun, I put on a fake European accent when I asked for help in finding them, and I must say I was treated better than I normally would have been. The cashier was particularly friendly- while she was ringing up the charges she was telling me she never gets to meet people from Europe. I was very tempted to at that point drop the whole accent thing, but I thought that would prolong the conversation and NM and US Chess League Vice-president Arun Sharma IM Sam Shankland Photo courtesy Monroi.com was back home waiting to drive me to the train station. Some 22 hours later, I landed in Gibraltar after one of the most stress-free travel experiences I’ve ever had. The 10-hour flight from San Francisco to London was probably my best ever, because for some reason, none of the seats adjacent to me were taken (geez, do I smell THAT BAD??) so while the rest of the plane was packed, I got to lie down and get some sleep. Once I arrived in Gibraltar, things started to get strange. The room key to my hotel was about a foot long, and I was informed that when I leave the hotel I must leave it at the front desk and then pick it up again when I got back. -

THE CHIEF MINISTER's BUDGET ADDRESS 2017 Her Majesty's
Chief Minister’s Budget Address 2017 THE CHIEF MINISTER’S BUDGET ADDRESS 2017 Her Majesty’s Government of Gibraltar 6 Convent Place Gibraltar Mr Speaker I have the honour to move that the Bill now be read a second time. 2. INTRODUCTION 3. Mr Speaker, this is my sixth budget address as Chief Minister. 4. It is in fact my second budget address since our re-election to Government in November 2015 with a huge vote of confidence from our people, and I now have the honour to present the Government’s revenue and expenditure estimates for the financial year ending 31 st March 2018. 5. During the course of this address, I will also report to the House on the Government’s revenue and expenditure out-turn for the financial year ended 31 st March 2017, which was the fifth full year of a Socialist Liberal Administration since we took office on a warm autumn day in December 2011. 6. Mr Speaker, as has been traditional now for almost thirty years since the first GSLP Chief Minister delivered the first GSLP Budget in 1988, my address will of course be NOT JUST my report to the House on the Public Finances of our nation and the state of the economy generally, but also a Parliamentary ‘State of the Nation’ review of the economic and political future facing Gibraltar. 7. There could be no better way, Mr Speaker for the GSLP to celebrate its fortieth anniversary than with the honour of a second GSLP Chief Minister delivering a Socialist Budget for Gibraltar.
