Answer 1

No, Gibralter has more commonsense than the UK

Answer 2

This is not an easy question to answer, although I suspect your benefits will cease within a short time of you leaving the UK.

I have provided links to two websites which should give you the information you are seeking, or direct you to the necessary pamphlet/office for clarification.

Answer 3

Here is where you would have been able to find the information on the internet... there is a number there somewhere you can call

In reference to another answerer.... Australia is not British.

Answer 4

The simple answer is yes you can, Gibraltar is under British rule and as such adopts the same system.

Answer 5

Gibraltar:  not part of Spain.  They would probably have different laws, unless the ones you refer to are EU laws.  As they are British, it stands to reason that their laws MIGHT be the same, but then, does Australia have the same laws?  they might have their own setup.

Answer 6

Gibraltar is a British overseas territory so I suppose it would be a similar setup to here?  Not sure.
