- When Gibraltar’s land border with Europe disappears forever this week, a brand-new fleet of London black cabs and freshly painted new red phone boxes will appear on the Rock.
- It is, perhaps, an effort by the Gibraltarian government to emphasize its Britishness - just as it moves closer to Brussels.
- In the biggest change since Spain ceded the Rock to Britain over 300 years ago, the land border which has divided Gibraltar with its geographical neighbour will vanish on July 15 as part of a post-Brexit deal.
