Keith Azopardi, the Leader of the Opposition, welcomed news of the UK/EU deal on a future relationship “in principle”, but asked as fundamental question: “Where does that leave Gibraltar?”
Mr Azopardi said that until a deal was reached for Gibraltar, the new would “mean nothing” for Gibraltarians and would be meaningless to their quality of life.
“It would be a supreme irony for the UK to leave the EU with a deal and for the only British territory in mainland Europe that overwhelmingly wanted to stay in the EU to be sacrificed at the altar of political expediency,” he told the Chronicle.
