No reason why it should be. If the EU can't negotiate a trade deal without going off subject then clearly they aren't interested in a trade deal. Sounds like a remainer press story.

Not even 24 hours and the Groan is stirring up mischief. Talks are due to start with the EUSSR on March 3rd. Talk about premature speculation.

The UK's relationship with the EU will, from now on, be marked by spitefulness from Brussels.

Having lived happily there for a few years I think Spain would regret stealing it back, the strength of feeling against it. Will Spain renounce its territories in Africa or will they maintain their one sided demands?

There may be a lot of give and take, but I doubt Gibraltar will feature in that.

//Any relation to Martin do you think?//

It seems not. Ms McGuinness chose a career in politics at the age of about 48. After being rejected as a domestic candidate in Ireland's 2007 General Election she turned to the European gravy train for sustenance and has been a career Euromaniac ever since (holding memberships of various committees and "working groups"). She is the lady who admonished Nigel Farage for having a union Jack on his desk and who cut him off in his final speech for waving one.

Will Brexit spur other countries non to follow us do you think?
Maybe set up a separate trading block?
