Brussels is piling pressure on the UK to resolve a 300-year-old Anglo-Spanish dispute over the Rock of Gibraltar if it wants to secure a quick deal on its post-Brexit transition period.

The European Commission on Wednesday will adopt a four-page mandate to cover the second phase of Brexit negotiations, making clear that a bilateral agreement is needed between London and Madrid on Gibraltar if the overseas territory is to be covered by transition arrangements and not cast out of the single market on Brexit day.

According to language seen by the Financial Times, the mandate will underline that “territories under British protection” — a term that covers Gibraltar — will exit the EU with the UK in March 2019, meaning arrangements for them need to be settled as part of the transition talks.

Whoops, we forgot about Gibraltar, lol.

I don’t understand why Gibraltar wasn’t part of the Irish border discussion. It’s the same situation after all.

95.91% of Gibraltarians are dirty traitors to the crown and should be sent to Madrid WHERE THEY BELONG.

Good news in Europe, in a couple of years maybe not good news for the UK.

It's either the Brussels Broadcasting Corporation or Brexit Broadcasting Corporation. Choose as you see fit, for those who just cannot handle when the facts don't tally with their own preconceived notion of what is actually happening, or that the BBC exists as some sort of hive mind.

Yep.

I’ve always thought that you can tell how biased the BBC is or isn’t by comparing what the far right thinks of it to what the far left think of it. Both sides are so convinced that it is biased against them, that I think it’s safe to say the BBC is actually in the middle.

Too many people think “bias” means “doesn’t agree with me”.

May in front of the committee. Doing a great job of answering a very slightly different question to the one asked, in a snooty "how dare do you question our brilliant plans for Brexit".

I genuinely think political accountability might be dead.

When the Foreign Secretary gets to keep his job after he strawberry floats up so badly that a British citizen gets an extra 5 years in an Iranian prison, then you know that there is no accountability anymore.

Scunthorpe Ham is your only future option.

Brexit

Should the United Kingdom remain a member of the European Union or leave the European Union?
