  6. Some Spanish journalists report accurately though. Here's the lady from Efe, for example: elmundo.es/elmundo/2012/0…
  7. I'm amazed at some of the reporting on yesterday's meeting. Some journos just make things up. And as for ABC today, well, words fail me...
  8. @jduarte6884 I wasn't on holiday after all, you see!
  9. That's me on the left, sandwiched between Margallo and Federico Trillo, London ambassador and ex minister. Pic by AFP. twitter.com/brian_in_gib/s…
  10. @mgonzalezelpais predicted what would happen at today's meeting and made some interesting observations worth reading: politica.elpais.com/politica/2012/…
  11. @grid2 thanks for the public vote of confidence...not!
  12. The UK hacks in Spain may rehash some Spanish wire copy though, I suppose...
  13. Don't expect to see much coverage on the fishing row in UK media. The only British journos covering today's meeting were from Gibraltar.
  14. @grid2 hahahahaha...my sis the cyber activist! Ahu ahu...
  15. And now, enough Twitter and back to my story for tomorrow's paper...
  16. The queues would also have been on the agenda for discussion at the meeting between Hague and Garcia-Margallo.
  17. Hague would also have made clear to Garcia-Margallo the UK's well known position on sovereignty.
