[url]http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-25100083[/url] [quote]Britain has formally protested to the Spanish authorities after police opened a diplomatic bag at the border with Gibraltar. The Foreign Office said diplomatic bags were "inviolable" and opening one was "a serious infringement" of the Vienna Convention on diplomatic relations. The incident occurred on Friday as the bag was taken from Gibraltar to Spain. ... The BBC's world affairs correspondent Nick Childs said the incident was "very unusual". The last occasion on which British diplomatic bags were opened involved Zimbabwe 13 years ago. The Foreign Office said it had no record of a previous such incident involving an EU partner or Nato ally.[/quote]
I was expecting it to be like a goody bag. There'd be some fish and chips, some twinings and an enveloped sealed by the queen herself that when opened read: "ur a faget" A man can dream.
What the fuck are you doing, Spain?

Spain might want to start back pedaling now, before they gotta pedal fast enough to win the Tour De France.
I thought the title was in figurative speech; Spain literally opens a british diplomatic bag. :v:

[QUOTE=Jrose14;42990392]How do you win a race by going backwards[/QUOTE] You just gotta turn around and race with your back to the finish?
Had to go look up what a diplomatic bag was, I thought it was a bag with instructions relevant to diplomacy... "In case of diplomacy, open bag" -opens- -contains hand grenade-
The last fuck up like this happened in a country like Zimbabwe. Think about the light in which Spain now stands.
[QUOTE=Atlascore;42991116]What in the hell is a diplomatic bag?[/QUOTE] They are your luggage, but protected by diplomatic inmunity. Therefore, they can't be opened to search inside or passed thru x-ray. So this would be like Spain touching UK's ass
[QUOTE=sloppy_joes;42990233]Border patrol agent*[/QUOTE] An agent acting on behalf of the Spanish government, therefore the question of "what the are you doing Spain" is entirely valid.
Spain don't try playing this game, you are just going to lose

[QUOTE=Native Hunter;42994285]Spain don't try playing this game, you are just going to lose[/QUOTE] As an Brit living in spain,Spain thinks its untouchable and I've got a feeling they're about to get a nasty wake up call,Which is exactly what they need!
