And Gibraltar is not a colony, it's British Overseas Territory. Semantics really.

 

Morocco and the UN. As they are with Spain's continued claims to Spanish Sahara (now known as Western Sahara)

Why did they used to put the word colony on the Gibraltar passport then?

The operative word in your sentence is "then".

Belgium, The Netherlands and Denmark are, effectively, economically entirely dependent on Germany. I have heard a couple of Dutch friends of my mine bemoan the fact that they are "an economic colony" (since we are on the subject!).

 

im not from either of those but the fact is germany is by far our largest trade partner, and any disturbance with trade with germany will have an effect on our economy,

brits will soon understand this
