En 1815 y 1854, unas epidemias de fiebre amarilla se cebaron sobre la
población de Gibraltar.
Al estar encerrados entre muros, los "llanitos" estaban pereciendo como
moscas.

España, por razones puramente humanitarias, cedió temporalmente el
uso de una parte del istmo gibraltareño, donde se instalaron
campamentos provisionales sanitarios para atender a la población
gibraltareña apestada.

Tras la epidemia, los ingleses decidieron quedarse con esos terrenos y
no devolverlos, como simbolo de agradecimiento por no haberles dejado
morir como ratas.

Allí instalaron el aeropuerto de Gibraltar en 1938 y en 1966
declararon oficialmente que los terrenos eataban bajo su soberanía.

Pero es que sois burros!

A quien se le ocurre ser compadecido con los ingleses; maxime que les
robaron el penon y siempre se los andan jodiendo.

Y aun asi, hoy dia el Estado Español sigue atendiendo sanitariamente a
los "llanitos", ya que a los pobres desgraciaos ni siquiera les han
construido un Hospital medio decente con un minimo de equipamiento.

Asi que si tienen alguna Urgencia medica tienen 2 opciones:
1- Se mueren de camino en el avion a Inglaterra
2- Van a algun hospital cercano español, donde se les atiende como a
cualquier otra persona.

Los ingleses les tratan peor que a los perros (y no estoy exagerando,
cualquiera que haya conocida a una inglesa con perrito lo sabe) y
encima les besan el culo y se sienten muy agradecidos porque se les
permite estafar dinero con el blanqueo de dinero.

Pero para variar, aqui los malos somos los españoles, que les
oprimimos y les maltratamos...

wolf in that fairy story.

Its complete nonsense.

The status of the territory between the North Front of The Rock and La
Linea was settled militarily and diplomatically over 200 years ago.

In 1713, at the time of the cession of Gibraltar in perpetuity to the
British Crown, various fortifications were established and occupied by
British troops in the area which came to be known as 'the British
Neutral Ground'. This was the area to the North of Gibraltar,
militarily conquered and continuously occupied by the British except,
during time of war.

After the Spanish attack (In Breach of Spain's written promise in the
treaty of Utrecht) in 1727 was repulsed by the British, the treaty of
Seville (1729) was the scene of long arguments between the Government
of Spain and the United Kingdom as to how far North the 'undoubted
right' of Britain extended from the North face of the Rock and it was
finally accepted that a distance of 600 Toises, being more than 2
cannon shots distance between the British guns and the Spanish guns,
would be considered 'the neutral gound', and so it continued
thereafter.

[Editors Note: Paolo Narvaez Guarnieri defines a Toise as a unit
equivalent to length of two arms. Equal to 1.949 meters ]

After the 14th seige ended in 1783, the British resumed the occupation
of the British half of the neutral ground, and at least since 1838,
when permenant sentries were posted along the line of the then
existing frontier, the entire area has been exclusivly occupied and
administered by the Gibraltar authorities.

In 1908 the British constructed a fence along 'the British edge of the
neutral territory at Gibraltar' (actually, to avoid offending Spain it
was put 1 metre inside the British territory) and, for reasons of
courtesy, gave notice to the Government of Spain before doing so.

During the construction of the border fence, the Governor of Algeciras
was instructed to complain that it was being built 'one or two metres
in advance' of the British line, and he explained in his letter to the
Governor of Gibraltar ' I should not have called your excelency's
attention were it not that such construction has gone beyond the line
of British sentries'

As has often been the case, statements made by the Spanish Government
are less than accurate and cannot be relied upon.

The British foreign secretary Sir Edward Grey had the matter looked
into and in 1909 wrote to the Spanish ambassador in London to draw to
his attention and request that he inform his Government in Madrid that
'It is perfectly clear ... that the fence ... will be entirely upon
British territory'. The Spanish Government did not seek to argue the
contrary and in any event gained 1 metre of the soverign territory of
Gibraltar, which they continue to occupy today.

In my country the various states take care of vehicle taxation and
registration. Some of the differences between neighboring states are
enormous. For example, I read in the Seattle Times, that one couple living
in Washington State had purchased a million dollar motor home in Oregon, and
registered it there, even though they planned to garage the vehicle in
Washington. The sales personnel in Oregon helped them to set up a dummy
address and post office box too, so one assumes that they were well
acquainted with the process. The savings for one year of vehicle taxes and
fees was some $90,000.

Once the neighbors in Washington realized that a vehicle licensed in Oregon
was permanently parked next door, they called the district attorney who went
after the couple for felony tax evasion.

Now I'm not saying that this sort of thing happens between Gibraltar and
Spain, but I'm not saying it doesn't. I'll bet the various Spanish
jurisdictions would like to get their hands on all that vehicle registration
money though.

Saludos,

Earle

That's peanuts, Earle, they are onto much bigger scams.
But unless anyone proves anything, it's perfectly legal to, for
example, buy property through an intermediary company based in Gib and
thus avoid most of the taxes.
Not for the ordinary doe, dough, just big capitals with loads of
unexplained income.

90 million Euros?
So where is it?
Not even a website?
A photo?
Something?

Lo unico que encuentro es:
"When the contractor started in 2002 it was anticipated that
construction completion would be November 2003. However, as with any
major project and particularly the reconfiguration of four buildings
into one integrated unit, delays have occurred. These were unforeseen
in the main with all of them now resolved. The consequence of these
difficulties has been that completion, as anticipated by the
contractor, will be February 2004."
y
"The public hospital for Gibraltar. It has the major specialities
(medicine, surgery, paeds, O&G, ENT, care of the elderly) but
complicated cases have to be transferred to the UK or Spain. There is
one surgeon here."

Works for me. Try again.

The new hospital is in Europort, its up and running for nearly
two years. There is an external picture of it on their website

>> http://www.gha.gov.gi/

And if there is something they cannot do there, medicine being a
very specialised thing, they send patients to the UK or Spain and
in both cases the Government of Gibraltar pays the full cost.

So Spain actually makes money from Gibraltar for this.

Right!, and, in general, how many cases to Spain vs. those going to England?

Most have been referred to the UK, however Spain is available as
an option as its easier to drive to Seville than fly to London
and the hospitals are as good or better.

However, in both cases they are processed as private patients
with the GoG picking up the tab. As they also pay a relative
to fly to the UK and for accomodation, Spain is a lower cost
alternative and less stressful.

Although my Spanish is poor, I might also prefer it as there
is no guarantee the people in the British hospital will speak
English ...

In the British hospital? In Spain?

And what's the official language in Gibraltar? English only?

Missed something: You're are saying that "most" are referred to the UK.
Does it mean they actually GO to the UK for treatment? Seems a bit of a
contradiction... vs. driving to Seville, with 'better'? hospitals, cheaper,
things easier in Seville, doesn't it?

That's the home Page of the Gibraltar Health Authority, not the
Hospital.
Can't it afford to have its own website?
Anyway, what I see is an empty building, and some text below that says:
"The Gibraltar Health Authority has comissioned an overhaul of its
website which is currently under way."
Maybe the Hospital is going through an overhaul as well. How strange
being so new.

But Spain is not trying to "make money" out of this, it's just helping
you out.
If you have a real emergency, there's no other place you can go but
Spain and you know it, and tou should thank the Spanish State for being
compassionate towards the people of Gibraltar, as it was during the
yellow fever epidemic of 1815 and 1854

En trente ans, Gibraltar est devenu une place financière de tout premier
plan.
Cet éclatant succès n'est pas le fruit d'une longue tradition mais d'une
politique délibérée et bien ordonnée. Pays des sociétés holding et de la
fiducie qui garantissent discrétion et anonymat aux investisseurs et
épargnants, Gibraltar défend aussi un secret bancaire des mieux protégé au
monde.
Cette forteresse financière au cour de l'Europe n'accorde qu'une coopération
judiciaire limitée - l'évasion fiscale n'entre pas dans le champs de l'entraide
- et reconnaît toujours d'interminables voies de recours contre les
demandes des magistrats étrangers.

La mondialisation des échanges et la libéralisation des mouvements de
capitaux, en l'absence de toute nouvelle régulation au niveau international,
se sont accompagnées depuis vingt ans d'une accélération et d'un
accroissement sans précédent de la vitesse et du volume des capitaux d'origine
criminelle en circulation.

Cette situation, inacceptable de la part d'un pays membre de l'Union
européenne, entrave gravement le fonctionnement de la coopération judiciaire
et constitue un des principaux obstacles à la lutte contre la délinquance
financière et le blanchiment des capitaux.

La Cité de Londres, et les Dépendances de la Couronne sont aussi des
centres offshore, sanctuaires de l'argent sale. L'Espagne demeure
particulièrement vulnérable au blanchiment des capitaux de Gibraltar en
raison des millions d'opérations qui s'y traitent chaque jour, de la variété
des produits financiers qui y sont proposés, de la permissivité de la
législation sur les trusts qui garantit l'anonymat des bénéficiaires réels
des fonds, de l'absence de réglementation de certaines professions
financières. Gibraltar, coffre-fort de la finance du monde mediterranée,
continue d'ignorer largement ses obligations anti-blanchiment pendant que la
communauté des magistrats des différents pays d'Europe souffre des
interminables exigences du Royaume-Uni pour accorder sa coopération
judiciaire.

En vertu de ses engagements européens, la Grande-Bretagne doit démanteler
les paradis bancaires et judiciaires que sont les Dépendances de la Couronne
et les Territoires " overseas " envers lesquels elle exerce une
responsabilité particulière. Gibraltar fais un combat de façade contre le
blanchiment des capitaux. Sous les coups répétés de scandales
politico-financiers, Gibraltar s'est juridiquement doté d'un ensemble de
mesures spécifiques, destinées à lutter contre le blanchiment des
capitaux.Toutefois l'application de la loi dans ce domaine se heurte à de
vives réticences et de graves inerties de la part des acteurs de la place
financière. Négativement qualifiée de "centre offshore " par les experts
internationaux,Gibraltar, véritable prédateur de la finance mondiale, a mis
en place une stratégie bien ordonnée de captation des capitaux venus du
monde entier.

Revenus non déclarés, fortunes de dictateurs, commissions occultes, tous ces
fonds viennent encore trouver refuge dans le Peñón où ils sont efficacement
et discrètement gérés par des professionnels de la finance. Des
intermédiaires financiers gèrent ainsi les comptes en Gibraltar de milliers
de sociétés domiciliées offshore, derrière lesquelles s'abritent les
véritables bénéficiaires de ces sommes.

Les autorités espagnoles n'ont pas encore été capables, à ce jour, de
combattre efficacement ces mécanismes fiduciaires que l'on retrouve
systématiquement utilisés, de manière détournée, à des fins de blanchiment.
Le Royaume-Uni ne pourra pas, d'autre part, continuer de rester
indéfiniment en retrait par rapport à ses voisins de l'Union européenne, sur
la question fiscale et celle de l'entraide judiciaire.

Il lui faut maintenant faciliter la coopération judiciaire encore entravée
par d'inutiles voies de recours et ne plus opposer l'exception fiscale.

Gibraltar est un territoire complaisant sous protection anglaise. El Peñón
présente tous les avantages pour le placement des capitaux - très faible
fiscalité, réseau bancaire dynamique, et separation politique de l'Espagne.
L'absence de déontologie bancaire rigoureuse, l'existence d'une législation
qui garantit l'anonymat des transactions, une de petrole sans contrôle, une
coopération administrative et judiciaire internationale défaillante, font de
Gibraltar un lieu propice au blanchiment des capitaux.

L'Espagne, qui s'est fortement engagée, sur le plan international, dans la
lutte contre la criminalité financière ne peut que souhaiter une évolution
rapide de Gibraltar sur la question du blanchiment des capitaux.

Gibraltar est un paradis de la délinquance financière. Gibraltar n'est
guère connu du grand public mais il est très réputé auprès des hommes
d'affaires et de tous ceux qui souhaitent dans l'anonymat et l'impunité la
plus totale y placer des fonds d'origine douteuse. Gibraltar est le
territoire en Europe où convergent les fonds de la mafia, de la corruption
et du terrorisme.

S'il continue à se maintenir volontairement en dehors des règles du jeu et à
déroger aux principes posés par les pays occidentaux pour lutter contre le
blanchiment, Gibraltar et le Royaume-Uni s'exposent à des sanctions
politiques et économiques de la part de la Communauté internationale.
L'Espagne, dans ce combat, ne doit pas hésiter à limiter voire interdire
toute relation d'affaire avec ce pays.

Gibraltar est devenu avec le temps un abri fiscal. Londres s'en inquiète
aujourd'hui, car les paradis fiscaux ne sont pas bien vus dans la nouvelle
Europe. Gibraltar constitue même une épine au pied de l'Europe entière.

Cependant, le "patriotisme" gibraltarien ne pèse pas lourd dans l'Europe du
XXI siècle, en tout cas pas pour le gouvernement britannique qui tente de
tisser des liens avec l'Espagne. En effet, 300 000 Britanniques habitent
l'Espagne, des millions d'autres y brassent des affaires ou y prennent des
vacances. L'Espagne est grande, riche et représente potentiellement un
immense atout pour le Royaume-Uni au sein de l'Union. Alors, il n'est pas
question de laisser 30 000 Gibraltariens prendre en otage la politique
étrangère de 60 millions de Britanniques. L'Espagne pourrait être une alliée
de taille pour le Royaume-Uni au sein de l'Europe à la condition de régler
cette vieille querelle tricentenaire qui ternit les relations entre les deux
pays.

Le "patriotisme" des Gibraltariens, en majorité de descendance espagnole, ne
serait qu'une pure façade. La colonie voudrait rester britannique parce
qu'elle prétend conserver ses privilèges et son statut de centre financier
de zone franche et "offshore banking", ce qui lui procure la plus grande
large part de ses revenus. La colonie est un repaire de bandits abritant la
mafia et les gros bonnets (environ 200 millionnaires) qui souhaitent
échapper à l'impôt.

Gibraltar constitue une économie parasitaire de l'Espagne,une invitation
permanente à l'évasion fiscale du pays le plus proche, qui est l'Espagne et
permet le blanchiment d'argent provenant du trafic de la drogue. 80 000
sociétés fantômes se sont installées à Gibraltar, sans rendre aucunement
compte de leurs activités.

Pour les Gibraltariens, ce sont là des faussetés! Il s'agirait d'une
campagne de dénigrement destinée à les forcer à négocier la rétrocession de
leur territoire, bla, bla bla.

Not really. On occasion its been faster to get a flight to London
than to queue up at the frontier. When the border was closed there
was no alternative but to refer patients to the UK and that continued
doctors here built up relationships with UK hospitals and knew their
strengths etc.

And there has been a lack of trust between Gibraltar and Spain.

La population de Gibraltar compte 31 000 habitants, dont la plupart sont
d'origine gibraltarienne, britannique, marocaine, espagnole, portugaise,
italienne ou indo-pakistanaise. Au moins 70 % de la population sont des
Gibraltariens et parlent en principe l'anglais; les ancêtres des
Gilbraltariens étaient des Espagnols, plus précisément des Andalous parlant
la variété andalouse de l'espagnol. Le second groupe est constitué des
Britanniques avec 13,3 % de la population, ce qui donne théoriquement un
cumul de 83 % pour la langue anglaise.

Cependant, il convient d'apporter quelques nuances, car les Gibraltariens
s'expriment dans la vie quotidienne en spanglish, appelé localement le
Yanito ou le Llanito (forme espagnole). Il s'agit d'une langue mixte issue
de l'espagnol andalou et de l'anglais. C'est la langue véhiculaire de tous
les habitants du territoire (sauf pour les Britanniques), même parmi les
citoyens les plus "patriotiques". L'anglais est réservé à l'école, pour la
lecture et l'écriture, ainsi que pour les communications formelles.

D'ailleurs, les noms de famille des Gibraltariens sont restés espagnols,
mais également italiens, maltais ou anglais.

La plupart des Gibraltariens préfèrent l'orthographe locale yanito, plutôt
que la forme espagnole Llanito. Ils se nomment eux-mêmes des Yanitos
(hommes) ou des Yanitas (femmes), ou Llanitos ou Llanitas en espagnol. La
salutation "Hola, Yanis" est courante entre Gibraltariens lorsqu'ils se
rencontrent. De plus, l'expression "los Yanis" est également utilisée dans
une petite ville espagnole située juste de l'autre de la frontière, La
Línea, pour décrire -généralement dédaigneusement -leurs voisins
gibraltariens. À l'opposé, les Gibraltariens appellent les habitants de La
Línea "the sloppies" (en français: «négligés») parce que, dans le passé, ces
habitants et en particulier leurs soldats à la frontière étaient très mal
habillés.

Un Britannique ne comprend généralement pas le yanito (spanglish), surtout
s'il ne sait rien de l'espagnol; la communication demeure tout de même
malaisé pour un hispanophone, car les particularités locales et les mots
anglais, maltais ou italiens embrouillent la compréhension. En fait, le
spanglish ou yanito n'est ni de l'anglais ni de l'espagnol, mais un mélange
des deux avec des caractéristiques particulières, ce qui en fait
techniquement une troisième langue, mixte celle-là, que les linguistes
appellent généralement un créole.

En somme, les Gibraltariens sont généralement trilingues: ils parlent le
yanito entre eux, l'anglais à l'école et avec l'Administration, puis
l'espagnol lorsqu'ils quittent leur petit territoire ou communiquent avec
les touristes.

Par ailleurs, l'anglais des Gibraltariens est relativement différent de
celui des Britanniques. En effet, ils parlent l'anglais avec des mots
espagnols, italiens et maltais - c'est le résultat de l'histoire de
Gibraltar- avec une prononciation nettement andalouse à un point tel que
l'anglais gibraltarien risque de surprendre, par exemple, un Anglais de
Liverpool, qui peut bien se demander s'il s'agit de la même langue. Bref,
l'anglais gibraltarien est un anglais très régionalisé. Évidemment, les
Britanniques et le personnel militaire s'expriment en anglais d'Angleterre.

Gibraltar learnt how to manage without Spain when the frontier was
closed. At the time the only source of oxygen was overland and the
supplies ran out. People died.

Y'know, I'm trying to understand you a wee bit. You made a statement re:
not-for-profit organizations, and there I agree with you. But, don't you
think that this other, sort of cynical outlook of motivations, actually
belie what you previously stated.?

Really! The onion vendor is there to sell, OK. But, if he sees you hungry
on the street and gives you an onion saying: 'pay me later' that he's there
just for the profit, when you pay him? D'you really think that a Spanish H
would turn out out on the street even if you can't pay? I don't know about
Span.H's, just expressing my doubts.

Really? Did people in Spain know about that? Sometimes it's your known
leaders that close the doors from the inside. Again, I'm only guessing.

Medical care a commercial transaction? Are you sure you're not one of us?
I thought that Americans and residents of countries with feudalism were the
only ones left, who pay for our own health care. It's shocking, that you
could even think this way.

Rafaminu, perhaps only for a short while you should take off those
anti-Gibraltarian glasses of yours and try not to diminish everything
and anything Gibraltarian...just for once.

I know that your hatred of all things Gibraltarian stems firstly from
losing your job here and secondly (apparently) from having an
unfortunate incident over a shopping trolley with a Gibraltarian, but I
hardly think that qualifies you as a serious, objective analyst of the
Gibraltarian pysche and the Gibraltarian character.

Let me be so bold as to correct you on your assertion that 99% of the
Gibraltarians don't pay taxes, which is something you insinuate in an
earlier post. I know many Spaniards are comfortable with this myth
because it sits very nicely with their perception (born out of purely
political motivations) that Gibraltar is nothing but a den of thieves
and criminals. Whilst I accept there is little I can do to change your
perception of us (consumed as you are by your xenophobic hatred, which
also extends to the French, I see) I can certainly point you to the
fact that us Gibraltarian workers pay an average 35% tax on our
incomes.

Yes 35%.

That makes us one of the highest taxpaying areas in Europe, right up
there with Scandinavia. Our taxes are spent, among other things, on a
solid health system, an excellent education system (which sees our
students attain record levels of passes at GCSE and A-level every
academic year and subsequently attend UK universities of their choice
paid for by the Gibraltarian coffers).

For all the excellence of our health system, there are times when
specialist treatment is required, and it is then that our patients are
given the PERSONAL CHOICE of going to hospitals in either Spain or the
UK to receive that treatment. The treatment given to our patients in
either country is fully paid for by our Government - its hardly an act
of selfless kindness by the authorities involved. Having said that, the
treatment given to our people in both Spain and the UK is usually of a
very high order and the relationships and cooperation at professional
and administrative levels are always excellent. Naturally, that we
should have access to those hospitals in Spain and the UK is a point
worth celebrating, and something we should be grateful for in and of
itself.

Our shared history is marked by moments of kindness and human warmth.
You give the example of the 19th century Yellow Fever epidemic. As
another, we should mention the shelter and kindness given to Republican
refugees in Gibraltar by the majority of Gibraltarians during the
Spanish Civil War. These truly selfless acts went against the official
position of the British Government (the farce of non-interventionism).
Many refugees even chose to stay in Gibraltar, marry into Gibraltarian
families and make Gibraltar their permanent home. This is an aspect of
our history that is often ignored and overlooked.

The basis on which Gibraltarians use Spanish hospitals is either in an
emergency under the European scheme (was eu 1/11) or on a strictly
commercial basis, where either the patient or the Government of
Gibraltar pay. I am informed they ask for payment in full before
starting any treatment. There is no charity element involved, its
simply buying services. They have good hospitals and facilities
accessible and we have money to pay for them. Although we have a
large modern hospital, its simply not possible for the doctors there
to specialise in everything so those things they cannot do or can be
done better elesewhere are contracted out.

Healthcare is a service.

In the United Kingdom and Gibraltar we all pay taxes and into a
social insurance scheme to cover the cost of treatment when and
if we need it. This means that everyone is covered and that there
are no shareholders of insurance companies expecting a dividend
and a smaller army of accountants to manage the scheme.

However, medicine is a highly specialised area and it makes
sense to send people where they can get the best treatment
and although on a personal level it may not be a financial
thing, on an inter state basis it certainly is.

The Government of Gibraltar pays its way.

Drug smuggling happens in Spain, not Gibraltar.

Spanish visitors who have an accident in Gibraltar would
receive treatment in our nice new modern hospital.

We have a modern digital telephone exchange which provides
all the lines we need in Gibraltar.

I realize all that. It's just that most Europeans, Inglés, Canadians and
even many Americans that I have talked to firmly believe that health care is
a "human right", like housing, food, access to cable TV, etc. It is
refreshing to meet anyone, anywhere, who realizes that it is a service that
costs something and that someone has to pay for
it. It is even more refreshing to meet someone who realizes that it is a
resource that must not be wasted. (Probably not happening here.)

Many English use RP ("received pronunciation") as their second language or
dialect. In these cases you have to get them drunk first, to find out where
they come from. In the United States we call this "BBC Announcer" English.

Los únicos servicios que les debería prestar España a esos colonizadores,
descendientes directos de piratas y bucaneros, y además gratis total, es
alojamiento en régimen de pensión completa en uno de esos establecimientos
que tienen puertas y ventanas hechas a base de barrotes de hierro, y dos
pijamas
anuales a rayas blancas y negras.

Los monos que quedarían danzando en ese territorio español, para que no se
queden desamparados, se los mandaríamos por ferry a la reina madre y al
orejudo de su hijo a partes iguales, para que los mantengan y se diviertan
con ellos. No queremos nada que no nos pertenezca.

This dude is an outsider in Gibraltar and to many outsiders, Llanito sounds
incomprehensible. He can't read "La Calentita" when she says: " Y todo el
mundo, or at least medio mundo, se apunta al integration, except el UK,
conque the least said the better". Llanitos are not Limeyes, but "andaluces
con bombín". This ganster guy here is from Kent and therefore he speaks
Estuary English with its extremelly annoying glottal stops, that is, "t" is
sounded as a glottal occlusion instead of being fully pronounced. Their way
of pronouncing "water" is ridiculous, wa~~~~~r. They also use lots of Rs at
the end of words: "I sawr a film today, oh boy...", "The idear is...",
"Vodkar and orange".

These assholes adopt the preposterous Estuary accent as a means of
"blending in", appearing to be more working class, or in an attempt to
appear to be "a common man" and also because they thing it is cute. For
example, one of the biggest Guiri assholes, Tony Blair, the British Prime
Minister, has been heard to adopt the accent at times in TV interviews.

I live in Indianajuato, near Chicago, and I speak Chicagoan English myself
now. For me "The Chicago Bears" is "Da Baers". Neither German nor Polish
contains the consonant th and the large number of speakers of those
languages who immigrated to this area approximated the sound as d. Besides I
believe that Mary, marry, and merry all rhyme with each other.

I say faucet instead of spigot, pop for soft drink, shopping cart vs.
shopping buggy, water fountain vs. drinking fountain and teeter totter for
seesaw.

Are we talking about 2 partitions on the same drive or 2 different

It's NOT a commercial transaction.
Spanish Social Security is a public institution and does not engage in
any commercial transactions.
It is financed with taxes paid by Spanish people and you should be
grateful for having access to it.

People died in great numbers, when under British control, the
population was left to die from yellow fever.
Thanks to the compassion and generosity of the Spanish Government, your
ancestors could save their lives. You and most of the population of
Gibraltar owe their very existence to that compassion and generosity.

Well, from my own experience, i can tell you the company i worked for
paid nothing.
I worked over 9 months there, and when I went to the Social Security
here, I found out my beloved "llanito" partner had not paid any taxes
on my work.

Pretty close; The difference between the US and British models is
that the state assumes the role of insurer, and coverage is wider.

Overall its probably better as it forces people to provide for future
sickness and should encourage preventative medicine.

I found it very amusing when el presidente said that one of the aims
of the American invasion of Iraq was to provide good free health
services for the iraqi people ...

¡Pero qué me dices, merluzo! Yo de Gibraltar lo sé todo, todito, todo.

Gibraltar es un pequeño territorio localizado en una peninsulilla homónima
del estrecho de Gibraltar, clave en el suministro de narcóticos a España.
Durante siglos los habitantes de Gibraltar permanecieron ocultos al mundo
hasta producirse una invasión de turistas españoles a principios del siglo
XXI. El influjo de turistas es un plan secreto del Rey Magneto I de España
para invadir la peninsulilla tras haber recibido noticias fiables de sus
espías Bothan que indicaban la presencia de un importante alijo de drogas
alojado en una de sus cuevas subterráneas.

Gibraltar es el tercer estado más pequeño del mundo. Es un país pequeño de
tamaño, pero grande de corazón (parida). Debido a la falta de terreno en
este pais se acostumbra a dormir de pie. El día de Fin de Año, en lugar de
tocar las correspondientes 12 campanadas, hacen sonar 24, con la intención
de parecer más grandes en algo.

Gibraltar es un país de Yúrop, situado concretamente al sur de la
Península Ibérica. Limita al oeste con el mar, al sur con el mar, al este
con el mar, al norte con la Verja, arriba con las monas y, en especial,
abajo con el Infierno. Gibraltar se rige por medio de una dictadura
cleptomaníaca machista de carácter vitalicio. Su moneda oficial es el
narco, que equivale a diez luros. Gibraltar es gobernada por Paco, el dueño
de la cervecería de enfrente.

El territorio en realidad pertenece al Yunaited Quíndon of Grueit Briten an
Norden Áirelan (Jincalaperra). Los habitantes de Jincalaperra son conocidos
como guiris o limeyes y son famosos mundialmente por su carácter afable, su
salud dental, su gastronomía, su recato en el beber y su cuidada higiene.
Asimismo la belleza de las inglesas es conocida y admirada en todo el mundo.
Los ingleses son los inventores de las orejas gigantes como símbolo de
realeza, y han introducido en Gibraltar los sombreros estilo Marge
Simpson, que son muy populares.

Gibraltar es la base de operaciones de Jincalaperra para dominar España y de
ahí el gran numero de guiris que se ven ahora por todo Al-Andalus,
incluido el Rano aunque ultimamente no sé por donde andará metido el muy
cabrón. Allí mandan a los jubilados que la gente no quiere en Jincalaperra.
Más concretamente los llevan a urbanizaciones con campos de golf, para que
cuando haya mas ingleses que españoles presentar a Victoria Bekam a las
elecciones y apropiarse de España, a la que renombrarian como Juliganistán.
Los limeyes quieren establecer su capital en Gibraltar

Gibraltar tiene muchísimos atractivos turísticos, aunque la única playa que
tiene es una auténtica porquería llena de cáscaras de plátano. La mayor
atracción son las monas, que están todas diabéticas porque los turistas no
hacen sino echarles caramelos y se van a morir todas ellas en poco tiempo.

Es importante destacar el evento deportivo más importante de la ciudad, la
carrera de triciclos Fórmula 1.En Gibraltar existen numerosos museos, pero
ninguno tan reconocido como el Museo de la Nada, lugar donde se recogen los
mayores ingresos procedentes de gringos despistados. Cabe también reconocer
la Biblioteca Municipal del Sudoeste Gibraltareño, donde se encuentra el
único volumen incunable conocido de Caperucita Roja en idioma Yanito, además
de toda la colección de enciclopedias didácticas ilustradas.

Gibraltar no está actualmente en guerra con ningún país del Mundo, sino que
se mantiene al margen, esperando la oportunidad para alcanzar el mando del
Consejo de Seguridad de la ONU.

Gibraltar es un país de leyes muy estrictas. Es verdad que están
autorizados el fraude fiscal, el blanqueo de dinero, el contrabando de
drogas y otras actividades sin afán de lucro, pero por otro lado está
totalmente prohibida la detonación de cualquier tipo de arma nuclear. La
tenencia de dichas armas está autorizada pero no su uso. Los matrimonios
entre parientes consanguineos en primer grado estan permitidos siempre y
cuando los contrayentes tengan más de 50 años, pero está a terminantemente
prohibido el sexo oral y anal. El lanzamiento de bolas de nieve está penado
con una multa de 50 narcos. Gibraltar cuida mucho el medio ambiente y por
eso la caza de ballenas está terminantemente prohibida en sus aguas
territoriales.

En el día día de hoy las investigaciones acerca de la presunta trama de
lavado de dinero y tráfico de estupefacientes dirigida por Mr. Jim Watt se
encuentra parada. Todos los guardias civiles que intentaron reabrir el caso
murieron en extrañas circunstancias.

Yes, particularly from having their houses shelled by Spain
despite signing the Treaty of Utrecht and promising peace

Your words are empty, your promises are not kept and were it
not for money milked from the EU Spain would still be a third
world country.

I guess you are embarassed that some 5000 Spaniards earn their

Pues ahí tienes al inepto de tu jefe, el Zapatonto alias "Bamby", cagándola
como de costumbre tras depilarse las cejas. Ese cretino ha sido el
gobernante más nefasto que ha tenido España en los últimos dos siglos.
España, el Reino Unido y Gibraltar firmaron un acuerdo el lunes 18 en
Córdoba sobre uso conjunto del aeropuerto, con el añadido de una
revalorización de pensiones de los trabajadores españoles que es el
chocolate del loro. Han leído ustedes bien. Suscrito por tres Naciones de
modo encubierto en un mentado "Foro Tripartito de Diálogo". Otra nefasta
"derivada" del talante de Zapatero. Supone reconocer a Gibraltar, por
primera vez en trescientos años, categoría de parte en futuras negociaciones
lo cual, se admita o no, menoscaba nuestra soberanía.

Habrá quien le vea ventajas a lo del aeropuerto del Peñón y a ciertas
facilidades adicionales en el paso de la verja, pero el precio es enorme y
los beneficios son para ellos, los gibraltareños y sus socios. Maldita la
falta que hacía mejorar de nuevo a una economía, parasitaria de España, con
más de 50.000 sociedades fantasma; ¿cuantas por habitante? No es casual la
corrupción que hoy gravita en la colindante Costa del Sol. ¿Será éste el
motivo por el que la tolerante Junta de Andalucía ha calificado de
"histórica" la reunión de firma del acuerdo? Y eso que de aeropuertos
regionales anda sobrada si sumamos a los de Jerez y Málaga -unidos al Peñón
por rápida autopista- los también accesibles de Sevilla, Granada y Almería.

Otro inri del pacto Tripartito sobre Gibraltar es que confirma, de hecho, la
usurpación por Gran Bretaña de territorio español para iniciar en 1938 la
construcción "de extranjis" del aeródromo, ahora elevado a la categoría de
aeropuerto. Ello con el agravante de alevosía al arrebatarlo cuando España
estaba embarcada en la guerra civil e imposibilitada para evitarlo.

Y el pastelero Moratinos, con anuencia de Zapatero, ha añadido una guinda al
hojaldre para evitar que España invoque el pacto como tácito reconocimiento
de su soberanía. A tal efecto la única terminal de viajeros se sitúa en
territorio gibraltareño pero contigua a la verja. Ello permitirá el acceso
directo desde el lado español, mediante un voladizo, a nuestra policía para
el control de algunos pasaportes conforme a Schengen. ¡Como si la policía
estuviera en territorio español y no en el Peñón, que así de hábiles son los
llanitos!

You know, you do sound annoyed as if cheated because Spain may charge
outsiders for health care: (you talk as if the Spanish Health System were a
"business") And you keep identifying those charges with this 'aim' to be
profitable in the SpanH's. Why's that? After all, you don't pay taxes in
Spain, or are you a member of the Spanish nation.

If they charge you, that is just. If you're in Spain, stranger an'all and
can't pay, they'll help you, anyways, as an act of humanity -'course,
they'll try to collect if they can.

But that is not a business, sir. At least, not the same type one sees in the
US of A. with the conduct of some hospitals and doctors.

It is.

The doctor comes and collects the money before he treats
you. I'm not complaining, thats good business practice.

You seem to think they are 'doing us a favour'

Its a simple business transaction, like having a haircut
or buying a beer in a bar. Someone provides a service and
its paid for. Or in this case you pay in advance.

whats the problem with that? its legal and quite respectable.

What is wrong is deliberatly witholding goods and services
which are freely available for political purposes.

Like the Government of spain instructing its telephone operators
not to enter into roaming agreements for mobile phones with the
Gibraltar operator Gibtelecom, or refusing entry into Spanish
ports to cruise ships that have visited Gibraltar.

OR building a bloody great big antenna mast next to the airport
acting as a hazard to navigation.

But these are all the wrongs done by Franco which the PP would
like to perpetuate and thankfully Sr Zapatero does not.

The problem is with me, I think, and my perception of the "why" of health
care. Maybe I am idealizing too much the intentions, the principal aim and
objectives of doctors/ hospitals when they take care of people, or, say,
bring somebody up to scratch, health-wise. I still believe they are not
like auto mechanics in the depths of their souls 'n intentions, although,
that can very well appear so when it's time to charge for their services.

I am giving them, of course, the credit for being "humanists" as well -not
all, but many.

I would like to believe that some doctors, people whom I've
known/appreciated, have looked after me and my family with something more
other than $$$$$$ in their minds.

C'est tout, M. Jimmy-boy. It's I who might be wrong-o

They are.

Limeyes should pay the visit to a doctor who may in turn refer you for
psychiatric assessment ( you NEED it !!!)

One of the common problemsfor flabby, white-ass Limeyes is sunstroke in a
country like Andalusia. Over exposure to heat in Gibraltar can be very
dangerous. If you start feeling weak, fatigued, dizzy or disoriented, get
out of the sun immediately and go to a cool, shady place, such as Asturias.

If you get sick in Gibraltar the best thing to do is phone home and
confirm that you have made a will.

In the event of requiring hospital treatment , there are reasonable
facilities in nearby Spanish cities. Only emergency health care can be
found in Gibraltar, at the Military Hospital, although to gain admisssion to
the facility it may be necessary to self inflict yourself a bullet wound.
The Military Hospital is very under-equipped and it is not unusual for
Limey patients requiring an X-ray to be sent to the airport where they can
pass through the baggage-screaning device.

Malaria is very common in Gibraltar. This potentially fatal disease exists
throughout the year and is spread by mosquito bites. Worst affected areas
are the low lying swamps by the seaside and anywhere large amounts of
stagnant water collects, such as hotel bathrooms. There are various forms
of malaria in Gibraltar, including a rare strain that is actually carried by
Llanitos and fatal to mosquitos. When large numbers of Limeyes are affected
by malaria, their flabby white asses are usually saved by the charity of
Spanish authorities.

For those who prefer alternative health care, Gibraltar also boasts a
24-hours Moroccan witch doctor clinic. It is cheaper than the care at
Spanish Hospitals, but Dr. Muhammed ben Imete also requests his services to
be paid in advance. Here patients can receive an magical incantation or
protective amulet at any time of the day.

They are trying to avoid unwelcomed Llanito gansters. Despite claims that
Llanitos are generally open, honest people, I constantly remind myself that
there are bad aples in every bunch. It's better to reject any overtures of
friendliness than risk having your trip spoilt by dishonest Limey behaviour
that you should have seen coming.

> OR building a bloody great big antenna mast next to the airport
> acting as a hazard to navigation.

Warning: There are some disreputable Llanito agents operating within
Gibraltar airport and prospective travellers shuiold be suspicious of any
requests for passport photo involving you or your travelling partner in
lingerie.

Now Jim, you seem to be talking about a British Pub.
In Spain the doctor does not collect any money. Neither does any of the
personnel prior to treatment. You are a lier, and you are insulting
Spanish practitioners and the Spanish Health system as a whole with
your insinuations.
This is what happens when trying to help people that don't deserve it.

They are. Paid with our taxes.

Lie, lie, lie. You don't pay in advance. You get treatment first thing.

First you have to learn what legal and quite respectable means, before

Another lie

That is because Gibraltar is forced to take cruising ships with people
suspected of having serious contagious diseases, that no other country
in the whole of the Mediterranean would allow.

Oops Rafaminu, in your anti-Gib zeal you seem to have gone overboard
with the reply function. Not to worry. Perhaps its Gibraltar's fault
too.

I take your point on Gibraltarian assholes. There are many about. There
are a fair few in Spain too (Spanish ones), and most of them seem to
inhabit alt.gibraltar for some reason. But that's another story.

It would seem after all that your passionate hatred for us stems from
personal anecdotes and anecdotes you seem to pick up in La Linea.
Anecdotes are sometimes funny, often shocking, rarely true. They are
used by people to put a gloss on the truth or to apportion blame
anywhere but on themselves. Anecdotes and isolated personal experiences
are also used selectively by small-minded people to justify positions
they already hold and can't reasonably otherwise justify. If I get
treated rather rudely by a Frenchman at a rail ticket office, I don't
walk off in a huff proclaiming France to be the armpit of the world. If
I did, I would look very silly indeed. Likewise, I wouldn't base my
opinions on anecdotes because (to paraphrase Dirty Harry) anecdotes are
like assholes...everybody's got one and they're usually full of shit.

As a Gibraltarian, with a very close friend who recently had to undergo
major surgery on a brain tumor, I can assure you that life-saving
operations also occur in the UK. He chose...A PERSONAL CHOICE...to go
to the UK rather than Spain to be operated on. Yes he was given the
option and yes he did make a choice. Choices are wonderful things. The
operation was happily a success and he's now back here in Gib to tell
the tale. It would seem compassion and excellent surgery for
Gibraltarians is possible in countries other than Spain, as long as, as
in Spain, OUR GOVERNMENT PAYS FOR IT.

Thank you NHS Hospitals. Thank You Spanish Hospitals. Feel better?

It never ceases to amaze me, how, with your limited experience of
Gibraltarian life, you claim to know more about Gibraltar than we do.
Sadly for self-appointed experts like yourself, having been born and
bred here, I can smell the politically-motivated bullshit from a mile
away.

En mi ultimo posting no me quejaba del sistema de salud en España. Si
lo lees atentamente te daras cuenta que digo que existen buenas
relaciones entre los profesionales en Gibraltar y en España y a nivel
administrativo y que esto habia que celebrarlo. Despues de todo, es un
paso positivo.

By the way, if I ever bump into you in Leroy Merlin, you can have my
trolley.

It's all about probabilities,
how many times you run into an asshole in Gib compared to La Linea?
And also must be taken into account the trait dispensed when they find
out you are a Spanish national. That point of view might be a novelty
to you, but try to use your imagination a little and guess what it
would be like...

Death.

Tell you the truth, i thought i wouldn't give a damn, but now that you
wrote the magic word, i kind of feel better, yes.
You're welcome...

You would not smell a rotten fish 2 inches from your nose, that is so
because your nostrils are all blotted with pollution and your
brain-washed mind can't think of Spanish people as other than political
enemies.

Good to hear. When you meet up with them, do you hold them personally
accountable for all the ills of the world and tell them they are
tax-dodging Russian mafiosos?

Dealing as I do on an almost daily basis with Spanish nationals, I live
the reality and have little need to resort to imagination (or anecdotes
about shopping trolleys). The reality, which might be a novelty to you,
is that they quite like me and I quite like them. We even have
conversations about things like football and the weather and we never
blame each other for the poor state of either. You should try it some
time.

Happily, his choice was UK. And he's very much alive. Another
tax-dodging Russian mafioso with a penchant for stealing your shopping
trolley.

You see, I'm a Gibraltarian, I pay taxes, and I say "thank you". I'm
not the incarnation of evil, really.

Possibly, I have your Government to thank for blocking one nostril
(thanks CEPSA, Acerinox et al) and mine for blocking the other (thanks
oil bunkering, nuclear submarines, car pollution).

There's a phrase in the language of the opressors (the Brits) that goes
something like "pot calling kettle black". They use it to describe
hypocrisy. Try this as an interesting exercise. Note down your phrase


"your brain-washed mind can't think of Spanish people as other than

political enemies" and replace the word "Spanish" with "Gibraltarian".
Then take a close look in a nearby mirror. You're a pot and you just
called a kettle black.

You'd better buy the champagne yourselves. Ours will probably have been
bought with Russian mafia money, ETA money, Al Qaeda money.......

No I mean it. Or we could share a trolley in the spirit of cooperation
and good neighbourliness and we can find an Englishman to contribute
the Euro coin. Practical tripartitism at its best.

What's all the fuss with Russians now, all of a sudden?
I thought Gibraltar was about tax-dodging Spanish and British
mafiosos...

I've got many more anecdotes, all involving "llanitos" thinking of
themselves as big shots, just because they think that's the way
british-educated people is supposed to act.
I'll keep you posted, don't worry...

Don't like football.
Si conocieras España, sabrias que hay 3 cosas de las que no debes
hablar:
1- Politica
2- Religion
3- Futbol
Pero si te quitan esas 3 cosas, de que coño vas a hablar?

Did I blame anyone for the poor state of anybody?
When did I? Sorry, I don't recall...

His choice was UK because he was lucky enough to have the time to
choose.

Glad he is.

I haven't had the pleasure to meet many of them, Russian mafiosos, but
I suspect even them have better manners than the aforementioned
llanitos.

I never implied that.
Maybe i did explore the possibility that some of you may have sold
their souls to devil, but that's all...

So, why aren't you complaining to the EU?
It is in clear contravention of European directives, and you are
directly affected...

You are utterly wrong.
I do not give a fuck about a person's nationality or race. Instead, i
care about his/her actions. I traveled to many different places around
the world, and Gibraltar is by far the one where there is the strongest
anti-spanish feeling.
As said I've got many more anecdotes, and since you insist i will post
them so you can judge for yourself...

Now i'm dissapointed
what a lousy comeback, what an idiot you are, what an asshole...
You are going to find my next post quite revealing, u bloody ignorant.

Ok, and as part of the deal, you start contributing to the general
welfare by stopping the money laundering and by doing some real,
positive work towards the community...

Pues, me equivoqué, igual que tú con tus numerosísimas equivocaciones en
inglés. La verdad es que tu no sabes nada de la lingüistica ni la
fonología, y que has leído todo en la "Junior Encyclopedia of English and
