With worries that Britain might still be contemplating at least a partial handover of Gibraltar to Spain, Gibraltar’s government has now started using a new weapon – the London taxi. I spotted one today, emblazoned in the colors of the British flag, and covered with slogans advertising Gib as “Britain in the Sun” and a “Home from Home”. Officially, of course, this was all just aimed at persuading Brits to visit Gibraltar on vacation – but the real message was clear:

The place just isn’t Spanish.
