I hope the Govt changes its mind - this is Gibraltar's heritage and tradition for God's sake!

As a supporter of this Govt, I feel that they have got things wrong on this one.
Guest#30 May 14, 2013, 18:55
this guardroom has been there many years as part of our heritage why now a new govt what to break part of what is everyday life just for the sake of show off of great entrance to the palace, come on gibraltar is too small and all our heritage is our treasure
Guest#31 May 14, 2013, 20:03
i think it would be a crime to do something like this to our heritage
Guest#32 May 15, 2013, 20:51
130 signatures so far,lets keep it up!
Guest#33 May 20, 2013, 20:05
This should not be allowed to be done! This is our heritage - it has been a Guardroom for well over 100 years - why does the Govt feel the need to do something like this?
Guest#34 May 22, 2013, 07:25
the guard room should stay where it has been for years.
Guest#35 May 22, 2013, 21:48
this has always been a guard room, does not make sense to change it
Guest#36 May 24, 2013, 09:58

Insult

it would be an insult to our military ancestors if this was done!

Don't Change for the Sake of Change

How can this be done? Making this the entrance of No 6 will destroy and change an age-old British Gibraltarian Tradition, the Changing of the Guard. By changing the building's use and moving the location of the Changing of the Guard, the entire ceremony/tradition is, to a great extent, ruined. Don't change for the sake of change.

Please I hope the Gibraltar Government changes its mind on this!

Do not allow the valuable heritage and history of Gibraltar to be diluted by commercial encroachment of those with a lesser interest.
Guest#40 May 29, 2013, 16:28
Save the Convent Guardroom! Lets not lose this unique piece of heritage and tradition!
Guest#41 May 29, 2013, 20:32
Hopefully the Gibraltar Government will not go through with this.......

the convent guardroom should be kept as it is very historically a very important part of gibraltar many of us gibraltarians have the honour to have mounted guard there it is very special to us
Guest#43 Jun 25, 2013, 22:02
Listen to the people, so much for open gov. and transparency
Guest#44 Jun 25, 2013, 22:45
Shame to hear the Govt are going ahead with this! Once again, a Govt does not listen to the wishes or views of the people.

Like many British and Gibraltarian servicemen, I was very proud to be a member of a guard here in 1953 when I was a young British soldier. This guardroom is a part of Gibraltar's history and heritage and must remain unchanged.
