Thu, 22 Sep 2016

There was Isle of Man representation when Gibraltar celebrated its annual national day.

President of Tynwald Steve Rodan was visiting the British Overseas Territory when they marked the occasion on September 10th.

Gibraltar's Chief Minister Fabian Picardo invited Mr Rodan to the celebrations alongside other dignitaries.

The visit also provided a chance for both countries to discuss the Brexit vote, with Gibraltar having voted strongly in favour of remaining in the European Union.

In return, Chief Minister Picardo has been invited to attend Tynwald Day next year.
