NUCLEAR powered submarine HMS Ambush yesterday steamed to Gibraltar – in a massive show of force against greedy Spain.

The Spanish – emboldened by Britain’s Brexit vote – demanded joint sovereignty over The Rock on the same day the shock results were announced.

Yes we did, but the original thread went MIA. Since this is a thread that is linked from the WNN, I have reconstituted it.
