Nevermind the geopolitical implications of handing Gibraltar back to the Spanish (perfect precedent would be Hongkong/China), but the issue of which side of the road cars should drive on has clearly only one solution. While most the Queen's lands and a few other misguided places on Earth are preposterously forcing people to drive on the wrong (left) side of the road, the remaining huge majority of countries are sanely driving on the right (right) side. Regarding the Queen and her son, do we really want a King who is married to a horse? Do we need to get into that sack of worms again?

Or most places in the commonwealth for that matter. But seriously, send Gibraltar back. No one likes them anyway. Yeah, never mind Canada. Or most places in the commonwealth for that matter.
