Read MoreTogether Gibraltar notes that there is some confusion regarding the Party’s involvement in yesterday’s demonstration, with people on social media criticising the party for both organising and not attending the demonstration. The party would like to clarify that it has had NO ACTIVE INVOLVEMENT OR OFFICIAL POSITION ON THIS DEMONSTRATION.

With an adequately implemented strategy, the aim of neutralising the virus completely is within our reach, and we should pursue this goal vigorously.
