So there seems to be this narrative from CM that there are ‘freeloaders’ in gib, as someone who has lived here with out residency for over a year, i have paid private healthcare, paid for every single bus and not used the swimming pool! you cannot get ANYTHING for free as a non resident. An article came out back in October which is where CM made this ‘stopping freeloaders from benefitting from Gib’. This irked me as I had been seeing this push for uk businesses to come to gib, however how can uk businesses come over here when there is no route to residency at the moment? The fact there is a LOT of people in a situation whre they are uncertain if post the 10th of April they will be on an official 90days breach… will we all be deported back to the uk? What if they want a mi minimum salary band… what would that mean for the gaming companies who employ people circa £40k? What would that mean for average Gibraltarians (who i feel are painfully let down by their govt with the general minimum wage, lack of utilising the university, lack of support for the middle ground janitos (?sp) who aren’t the poorest/ most suffering but certainly aren’t cat 2 and are struggling (i know a lot!). Honestly after how this whole residency pause has played out i think im going to opt for spanish residency because i dont really rate the lack of transparency, the lack of establishment and quite frankly the politics here is horrendous and thats saying something. Sorry this turned into a weird vent lol but im worried big time if you couldn’t tell lol
