Petition Pandering to Foreign Countries
More details
Please can the UK stop pandering to other nations and start standing up for itself. Sometimes diplomacy just takes too long. Spain for example: What is happening in Gibraltar is ridiculous.
Please call in the Spanish Ambassador and inform him, they have a week to restore normality or we will impose a surcharge of £200 on every traveller flying from the UK to Spain.
The impact on their economy will be substantial and they will want to avoid it at all costs.
They might want to take us to the European Court, but that will take years, so just ignore it.
We cannot go back through history and review each and every treaty. Gibraltar was settled in 1713 in The Treaty of Utrecht.
