Just as they are in Diego garcia ad Gibraltar. You want Britain to do the same to the Falkland Islanders and Gibraltarians as they did to the Chagossians, ignore their wishes to satisfy another power. Where's the morality in that? You seem to be incapable of thinking about people, only about colours on a map. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peppino Impastato Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 There are no Falkland islanders or gibraltans. Still not capable of objective thought as soon as a British colony is discussed I note. And hilarious comparison to draw, truly comical What i actually want is the UK to respect intl law in all cases and relinquish all colonies too cause we kind of established post ww2 colonialism is wrong. You seem a little behind the curve on that one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The oil will be worth may times that. Anyone who doubts our commitment to the Falklands is about anything other than oil (which has dictated the foreign policy, of basically all governments for 100 years) is quite frankly a moron. Again I remember at the time the government made up a league table of foreigners who were eligible for UK citizenship. It was a long time ago and I cannae recall it exactly. In the top tier were the usual suspects Australia, New Zealand, Canada, etc Then the second tier were India, Pakistan, etc Third tier were certain African countries, etc BUT in the bottom tier were several islands including the Falklands. As they were so far down the list the Argentine took that as an invitation tae invade. The following week it was rushed through parliament and the Falklands were promoted tae the top tier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peppino Impastato Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Didn't know that. I imagine the Falklands is like n Ireland on steroids, people running about going on about how British they are. If they want to be brBritish they can move back to Britain, we could decolonise the Falklands in a week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's true but I would object if we gave them £1 million each in payment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crùbag Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 As to Brexit... It features prominently in Brookers Wipe16. Worth a watch if you haven't already done so.
