Joseph Garcia (Gibraltarian Politician)
The Hon. Dr. Joseph Garcia MP, PhD (born 1967) is a Gibraltarian historian and politician, and the current leader of the Gibraltar Liberal Party and Deputy Chief Minister in the Government of Gibraltar. The Liberal Party controls three of the 17 seats in the Gibraltar Parliament after the 2011 general election and is in government with its political allies, the Gibraltar Socialist Labour Party. It formed a coalition to contest the 2003 election with the Gibraltar Socialist Labour Party, which won five seats, even though the philosophies of the two parties are fairly distinct, with Dr. Garcia's party favouring Gibraltar's development into something of a modern city-state and generally favoring free markets and governmental transparency.
