Sancho about La Línea's 'congestion charge': 'The Damage is Done'

LA LÍNEA / GIBRALTAR Our good friend Sancho, at his Tilting at Windmills blog, has it right again. He says, "This whole sorry episode has already impacted on cross border relations plus those between Gibraltar and Spain. I suspect it hasn’t between London and Madrid because the Foreign Office will take the view that Spain has sorted the problem and it’s behind the scenes diplomacy has worked. Here on the ground though there is a different tale to tell [... but] My suspicion is whilst that damage is real enough it is in the hearts and minds of Gibraltarians where we will find the raw truth." It is well worth a read.
