It is a branch of the South West Region of the Conservative Party. The party does not field candidates in the local elections in the territory, and only stands candidates for the European Parliament constituency of South West England and Gibraltar. It is an affiliate of the Gibraltar Social Democrats party. HistoryGibraltar was first represented in European Elections in 2004 as part of the South West England constituency. None of the main Gibraltar political parties have contested European elections, so voters chose from United Kingdom party lists. The Gibraltar Social Democrats have however, endorsed the Conservatives in European and UK Parliamentary elections.[1][2] 2004The Conservative Party polled over two-thirds of the Gibraltar vote, with no other party exceeding 10% support. This was to a large part due to the perception that the Labour Government in Britain had "betrayed" Gibraltar by attempting to negotiate a constitutional settlement involving joint sovereignty with Spain.[3] This arrangement was rejected overwhelmingly by Gibraltarians in the 2002 sovereignty referendum. The Conservatives were perceived as being unequivocal in their support for Gibraltar's continued British status. In addition both the leader of the Conservative Party, Michael Howard, and his deputy, Michael Ancram, flew in to rally support.

The Liberal Democrats won the popular vote in the territory for the first time.[5] Electoral performanceThe below table lists performance in European Parliamentary elections.
