I was there a few weeks ago. An absolute shithole. Jesus christ everything was so worn down. Banks and jews everywhere as well.

Britain won't let it go. Worst case scenario England pumps money into it.

>Could Gibraltar declare independence from the UK
Unlikely
Their economy is too small to be able to live without the UK

Spanish rightful clay.

>britain give Hong Kong back to China
>won't give Gibraltar back to Spain

Why

Gibraltar will never return to Spain on their free will because being a tax heaven goes really well to their economy, when Britain finally leaves the EU they will have to pump their economy because I'm sure that there will be a phisical frontier with costums that will end their contraband business, when that happens things will turn sour for both countries.

We only agreed to give Hong Kong back because we signed a 99 year lease with China, and when the lease was coming around to the expiration date, there was no way we would have been able to defend it in case of a Chinese invasion

When we took Gibraltar, it was just signed over to us

>>70264803
Because our treaty with China stipulated that it was to be returned...

The Treaty in which Spain signed over Gibralter clearly stated that it was in perpetuity...

But then they got second thoughts about it and UK said "No Backsies"

>>70264803
China is a superpower one of the biggest economies in the world.

We not.

>what are tax havens

>>70259608
Well you see we wanted a source of salt to put on our fish and chips, so what better source of salt than a slice of spanish clay?

Tax havens of today have a larger population than Gibraltar, or are British Overseas Territory or Crown Dependencies
