摘要

THAT only days after Theresa May kicked off Brexit negotiations a previous Tory leader, Michael Howard, invoked the Falklands war to save Gibraltar from Spain may have been a shock. That the future of Gibraltar would come up during Brexit should not have been. Spain always said it would raise the issue. More pointedly, Britain's need to strike a new trade deal that is subject to unanimous approval gives other eu countries a chance to bring to the table any grievance they wish to air.
