EU irks Britain by calling Gibraltar a ‘colony’

Britain complained about the European Union calling Gibraltar a colony in a piece of draft legislation Friday, highlighting how the EU is lining up behind Spain in its territorial dispute as Britain quits the bloc. The 27 remaining member states agreed to offer Britons visa-free travel to the EU after Brexit in March, even if talks on a broader withdrawal treaty collapse, on condition that Britain offers the same terms to EU citizens visiting for up to 90 days.
