Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
Once apparently concerning point in the EU's negotiating document is this passage about Gibraltar.
Quote:
Finally, Madrid has got what it has wanted since joining the Union 30 years ago. “No agreement between the EU and the United Kingdom may apply to the territory of Gibraltar without the agreement between the Kingdom of Spain and the United Kingdom,” the document says, which means Spain now wields veto power over Gibraltar – something which the Foreign Office has always resisted. It is a major diplomatic defeat for Britain.

What can the UK do? Can we buy Spain off financially?
