This year - 2026 - is a very significant year in the ever-evolving story of the Gibraltar Neanderthals. A story that keeps on giving. Firstly, it is the 100th anniversary of the Neanderthal child skull discovery in Devil’s Tower Road by archaeologist Dorothy Garrod in 1926 - a child we know today as Flint. His...

by Chief Minister Fabian Picardo I remember the morning of the 24th June 2016 as if it were yesterday. The night before, Gibraltar had spoken with one voice. By 96 per cent, we voted to remain in the European Union. We were the first to declare in the entire referendum. No community voted more decisively....

It certainly is, if everything goes to plan on this special day of the 15th of July, 2026 – a date not to be forgotten in a hurry, just like the date of the closing of this landmark, now disappeared, fence. Yes, it was 1969. Just like we remember the Referendum, National Day, oh, and...

From the outset, the four parties negotiating the treaty were clear it was about people. Brexit, which only a handful of us voted for, had left Gibraltar in the lurch. In the process, it had dropped the Campo in it too, La Linea in particular. Much as it might rankle with some people on both sides of...

This week Alice’s Table picks up the story of Gibraltarian singer songwriter and producer Simon Dumas and his life in Nashville - the home of country music. I recently caught up with him on one of his many home visits when he shared the breakup with the band King Calaway and how he has replaced...

By Jaime Netto In The 18th Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte (1852), Karl Marx stated: Men make their own history, but they do not make it as they please; they do not make it under self-selected circumstances, but under circumstances existing already, given and transmitted from the past. By reference to this, Marx was suggesting that,...

It was 40 degrees Celsius in the shade and I was sat under a four-metre-high banyan tree in Mumbai’s suburbs, grateful for the shade this old tree provided me. Tall, leafy, with some funny looking branches growing out of it, I look down and noticed a red and white stripe painted at the base of...

By Gemma Arias Vasquez (*) I have read Nick Cruz’s opinion piece of 1st July with interest. It is telling that, even in criticising the Government, he accepts the central point that Gibraltar needs a proper residence framework. He accepts that our public services must be protected. He accepts that abuse must be prevented. He accepts that there is a...

Politics is best driven by vision. And invariably tested by fate. Behind any vision are not just abstract goals, but the values held by those pushing for change. The trouble is that most people in the public eye are complex, contradictory. They may do the right things for the wrong reason and the wrong things...

By Sophie Clifton-Tucker Gibraltar Pride was last weekend and I’m happy to report a hearty turnout, young and old. And then, as night follows day, came the comments. They are of course from perfectly reasonable people who want you to know they’re perfectly reasonable: “I don’t mind if someone’s gay, but does it need a whole month?” “Can’t they just have one day?” “I just think it...

A walk down Main Street last Saturday morning got me chatting about last week’s Alice’s Table and the year 1961. Why? Because I was stopped several times by some of our readers who enjoyed reminiscing and rediscovered some parts of our past that they had pushed away and forgotten. It never ceases to amaze me...

Ten years ago today, on June 24, 2016, the morning after the Brexit vote, I was scared. I don’t mind admitting it. The night before, I’d been at the count when the Gibraltar result came in, the first of the night across the UK. We were small, we’d all voted pretty much the same, and it was an easy count. Gibraltar was for...

Hailing from a small place like Gibraltar, the sense of community is given and often taken for granted. You greet your neighbours on your way to work, wave hello to the same people you pass by on your regular commute, arrive at work and greet everyone good morning. These are the people that have now formed part of your...

As UK heads to a summit with the EU on July 22nd trailed by the EU-UK Gibraltar Agreement that sees our border with Spain demolished a few days before that, one might think that Britain is beginning a journey, like the prodigal son, back home to Brussels. Perhaps it is. The road, however, is longer than many think. Tomorrow,...
