Election fever has taken over Gibraltar!  As we countdown to polling day, David Revagliatte has met representatives from each party to get their vision for business in Gibraltar. 

To keep things balanced and fair, each interview centres around the GFSB’s Election Wishlist, published in March. Each guest is asked the same questions and they tackle the same issues. Whilst ministerial portfolios had not yet been decided at the time of recording, each party sent its candidate with expertise in business. 
This is two of three Election Specials recorded on the 4th October 2023.
