Over these 60 years, the Gibraltar Photographic Society has made very good progress, adapting and changing to the different trends in photography and keeping up with advances in the technology. Once again, this week Alice’s Table returns to the history and the people who have been and made-up a huge part of the Society in...

So far, which way are they tipping, negatively or positively? That’s a question requiring a reasonable, with hand on heart – but not thinking with it emotionally only – answer. It has to be said things are looking good at this stage. Of course we have to get down to the nitty-gritty as more details...

Every Gibraltarian of a certain age will recognise that feeling when you cross the border from Spain into Gibraltar. Let’s call it a homecoming, though it goes a bit deeper than that, a return to a safe and familiar space. It’s the flip side of another sentiment, the sense of a wider horizon and possibility...

The Gibraltar Photographic Society has over 60 years built itself to become one of our most long-established, popular and a visible major part of our community. Still going strong it continues to attract new member in this digital age where everyone is a budding photographer – but there are still many out there who want...

There are moments in modern day history that will always stay in my mind and which probably led me to seek out a career in journalism. It may have started with the 9/11 attacks on the Twin Towers in 2001, or even earlier with the news of Princess Diana’s death. There are other important events...

At a Brexit town hall discussion hosted by the Gibraltar Federation of Small Businesses this week, the mood in the room swung from optimism about a treaty that will transform the business landscape in Gibraltar and open new opportunities, to concern about the nitty gritty of what the change will mean in practice. This was...

This week sitting at Alice’s Table is a person who is no stranger to these pages, and who most of us will know – having been a former Chief Minister under the AACR Government, Leader of the Opposition, the Speaker of Parliament, and Mayor of Gibraltar – and even acted as Governor of Gibraltar in...

Pushing aside the grey, horrible levanter cloud we unfortunately have to put up with, that headline is a description of a hot summer’s day, which is what we’ve been experiencing lately and the opening to another summer season for a few weeks henceforth. Yes, summer’s here. You could say Gib is busy all year round...

The name Ben Dance will mean nothing to most people in Gibraltar, but in the tsunami of information and opinion that followed the political agreement announced on Wednesday, his was the clearest vision of what had been achieved. Mr Dance is the official photographer at the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office. An image he took...

By Chief Minister Fabian Picardo For over five years, Gibraltar has been at the centre of one of the most complex, technical, and geopolitically sensitive negotiations undertaken by the United Kingdom and the European Union since Brexit. The process has consumed me. It has occupied close to half of my time in elected office, taken...

There is nothing more relaxing than settling on the sofa after a long day, a cup of tea in my hand while I watch the adrenaline-filled suspense of a good medical drama. For the past few months, I have moved on from one show to another and, honestly, it has been a ride. I can...

By Brian Porro Over the last short while I have noticed several stabs at guessing the number of official languages for EU purposes and at least one suggestion as to the impact of translation on the timetable for the publication of EU official documents, in our case of the much-referred-to EU-UK Treaty in respect of...

By Rebecca Calderon On 24th May 2013 Gibraltar got into UEFA and everyone celebrated. Football went from amateur to professional overnight, we’d be playing in the EUROS, and local clubs would fight it out for Champions and Europa League places. Before this, football in Gibraltar was community-based around family ties and the club house, with...

Do you like to sing? Do you wanna sing? I believe secretly we all do, especially in our own private auditorium – the shower. Safe place that it is and boxed in where no one can hear us. But if you really wanna sing then you have got to sing it out loud and sing...
