Colin Santa Farrell, Gibraltar is an overseas territory of the United Kingdom and is self-governing in all matters but defense. Its constitution was established by the Gibraltar Constitution Order in 1969, which provided for a House of Assembly consisting of the speaker (appointed by the governor), 15 members elected to four-year terms, and 2 ex-officio members. (A new Constitution Order was approved by referendum in November 2006 and was implemented in January 2007; it renamed the House of Assembly as the Gibraltar Parliament and increased its number of members to 17.) In 1981 Gibraltarians were granted full British citizenship. Gibraltarians age 18 or older and British civilians resident for more than six months are entitled to vote.

Re No. 3: we’ve been infiltrated by the flat earth society! An ellipse is 2 dimentional - i.e. FLAT. THe reason why the route appears to be a curve is because it is drawn on a Mercator’s projection map. Of you looked at it on a globe from a point vertically above the line it would look straight. The earth is quite definitely NOT an ellipse. Der.

You might be able to eat year-old apples but they taste horrible - usually floury.
Peter de Loriol
The United Kingdom is the short term for 'The United Kingdom of Britain and Northern Ireland' - ergo any island not within this geographical sphere, whether it belongs to Great Britain, is not the UK.
Peter de Loriol
Agreed with Mario- this is the type of question that a politician can pose - and we know what politicians do best!
