The Foreign Office has summoned the Spanish Ambassador amid a standoff over a ship that entered Gibraltar waters.
- *U.K. CITES `ONGOING INCURSION' INTO BRITISH GIBRALTAR WATERS
- *U.K. SUMMONS SPANISH AMBASSADOR OVER `CONCERNS' ABOUT GIBRALTAR
Sky reports, the Spanish survey ship has been in Gibraltar waters for more than 18 hours and repeatedly refused direct orders from the Royal Navy to leave. As a result, the Foreign Office has summoned Spanish Ambassador Federico Trillo to try and resolve the situation.
One can't help but wonder if this is Rajoy's cunning plan to get the youth back to work… conscription?
