And we don't give a stuff about the people & sheep living there, the Falklands was was about oil rights, no more no less
The Argentines must love the people and sheep living there. Why else would they go to all that trouble of illegally invading someone else's territory? They must really, really care... http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2013/03/13/falkland-islands-uk-squatters-_n_2866103.html
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falkland_Islands_sovereignty_referendum,_2013 Seems pretty straightforward. Perhaps the Falklanders actually like being British citizens. Shock, horror!
Considering how many times it has been in the headlines you would think anyone with anything about them would spell Savile correctly.
The Argentinians? The descendants of the Spanish and others who wiped out the original inhabitants of the area. The Falklands were occupied by various countries before the state named Argentina came into existence.
Onlyyou. You might not . . . Try meeting them and you might realise they do; certainly more patriotic than some numbnuts on here.
I share their patriotism. People like Stan are convinced the Falklanders are being oppressed by the ruthless boot of British imperialism, but the reality is that they are proud, British citizens who don't want to be controlled by a Spanish-speaking country with its own problems. It's pretty simple, and it applies to Gibraltar as well.
and the analogy breaks down before it even gets out of his fingers... do you know top gear earns the bbc more than a hundred million a year? how much do you think it would earn without clarkson? would you like to make up the difference?
Bollocks, it's people want to remain British, we have an obligation to protect those rights, just as we do in Gilbratlar, where there's no oil.
How many of us would see the reg H982 FLK and think, oh look it's a reference to the Falklands war? None, that's how ****ing many.
"Bollocks, it's people want to remain British, we have an obligation to protect those rights, just as we do in Gilbratlar, where there's no oil. " How is that any different to the attitude of my posts? You and Dutch are quite the hypocrites when it comes to this; getting involved in the HCC/ERYC row amongst other things. Are you making a threat, OLM? I'd suggest you and Dutch lead by example before preaching to others.
