Show Notes

A new draft treaty between the UK, Gibraltar, and the EU aims to ease post-Brexit border issues. The treaty keeps Gibraltar British while scrapping routine passport checks at the land border with Spain, replacing them with dual checks for air and sea arrivals. A special customs setup will also cut red tape on goods. The draft, which still needs signing, ratification, and rollout, has been welcomed by Gibraltars Chief Minister but raised concerns among UK opposition figures over Spain gaining influence on borders, airports, and rules. The talks have dragged on since the UK left the EU in 2020, and the draft clarifies rules for non-EU visitors under Schengen limits.
