Why dont they just give it back to the Spaniards?
It is very strategic and the Spanish are idiots.

>When the Spaniards have mostly control over the strait
Kek, dumb yank
It should be given back to morocco, not Asspain

And why do you need planes there in the first place? Anglo Warmongerers
>>138301811
Not strategic anymore when you have satellites surveiling the world 24/7 and planes that could go halfway around the globe
probably somebody rich/powerful lives there and the UK doesn't want to displace whoever owns that shit
>>138302605
>not strategic.
Literal fort that can protect the mediteranian sea from hostile atlantic fleet. Can also be used to keep hostile Mediterranean fleet in.

No one important lives there. But it's our rock so Spain can fuck off.
>>138303058
Spain dont want it. Spain said to tgeir eu overlords Gibraltar was of no consequence in brexit negotiations. Spain unironically better than their autistic child argentina.

Because it's crucial to world shipping and the Anglo's are the only ones with the balls to keep routes open, this part is Britain's responsibility.

It's cool most of them are uninhabited strategic locations
Only 5 are inhabited. So your only cruel colonial overlords for those 5.
the people want to be under englands rule
dont you remeber months ago when spain tried to cuk england after brexit
the gilbrater leader said for the EU and spain to stop acting like the upset father of a divorsed couple
>>138294592
Unhide your flag pedro or Portugal will rise again.
>>138294592
Why doesn't Castille give back their stolen Iberian clay? There is no such thing as Spain.
Tell you what, Spainshits.
We'll give Gibraltar to the rightful owners, Andalusia, if you give them independence.
>>138294592
>ancap
>"give" it back
shity bait/10
>>138294592
Its not in their nature to give things back without a fight and they like to hang onto parts of other peoples countries. Its usually strategic parts they hang onto so they can fuck you over if need be. God bless the eternal anglo.
Why doesn't Spain give Barcelona back to Catalan if it's that easy?
I think I'm going to take a vacation in Gibraltar. 10/10 for having it's own airport so I don't have to bother going through that shitty brown country right next to it.
>>138294592
Spain: Hey, what about Gibraltar - it is like IN Spain
Brits: Noooooo! rock!!!! Rock ours!!! Away you dirty Spanish ape! Rock ours!
Spain: Ok, fine. What about the 1 million Brits you send to us for retirement? Want them back.
Brits: Wud? no no no, keep em, those can be yours, who wants em anyway!
Castille (Spain) captured Gibraltr from Granada in 1462
The Brits took it from Spain in the treaty of Utrecht in 1713 and have held it ever since
The Spanish held it for 251 years
The Brits have had it for 304
Stfu about the damn rock Spain, Britain has owned it longer than you, it's pretty much theirs now

Johnston Atoll was actually pretty fucking cool, shame they bulldozed the entire island and turned it into a floating bird house.

Only takes one radar guided missile to wreck the whole Brit fleet. That rock is mostly kept because of muh anglo pride.
All your islands are belong to us.

Oh wait, I forgot. They've got this huge ass mosque cucking up the place. It's in the background of their historical lighthouse too. Britcucks, not even once.

Pic related. How did you fall so low, you fucking dumb limeys?
>>138294592
Well the idea is if they get pissed off they can block trade and ships going out/in the Mediterranean but they don't have the military power anymore so let's say they'll give it to the US and the US could fuck shit up.
IT'S A BARGAINING CHIP YOU MORONS!

Do you understand that most "Gibraltarians" are Southern Spanish mixed? They are not exactly Anglos from England. Lots of them are actually Portuguese, Italian, French, Jewish...
>>138294592
Buenos Dias, Podemos militant that is more nationalist than Franco supporters
Everyone who lives there wants it to be British, ergo it is British.
>>138294592
All the banks are there because it was the main trade route to china and indian
>>138294592
Because the people of Gibraltar don't want pay hight Taxes
And because the Monos there don't speak Spanish kek
