What about Mauritius that's nice, we could just invade, move enough British people there to create a majority then scream self determination. Can't see anything wrong with that, worked with n Ireland. What the f**k are you slavering on about? So if you don't accept Conquest or assimilation as a reason of ownership who should Britain give back Gibraltar to? Who should the Falkland Islands belong to? While you're at it the Western Isles, Shetland and the Orkneys too 9 minutes ago, Peppino Impastato said: Sorry Welsh bairnthats utter shite , nation states have seats not nations, the un recognises Scotland as a nation, and as also ruled against the UK over the Falklands.

Scotland, Gibraltar and the Falklands all have considerable devolved powers but no control over the Treasury, Bank of England, Defence or Foreign Affairs. The only thing that makes us different is a few seats in the House of Commons. Calling yourself a nation doesn't make it so. Unless you are a nation state it's just a word, like province. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRob72 Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 What convictions? I just posted a link to a news story. What on earth are you getting so excited about?

RedRob72 Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 I've been to Dublin about 40 times and have never met a single person who doesn't support a united Ireland. In the Republic it would win at least 85% of any vote. Some are reticent to discuss it at first and even feign disinterest or reluctant, but they all actually support it as would, do you if a part of your country had been occupied for hundreds of years. Their only real concern is the reaction of bigots like redhandrob. Haha, what are you smoking Pep? They don't want to talk about it, but you can still claim support at 85%, the more you post the more you lose any credible judgement. Tell us about North American Indians, Australian Aboriginals or Kiwi Maoris that you have come across on your travels and their views on hundreds of years of occupation!? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peppino Impastato Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Fucki beautiful to see a bigot like you panicking Wes. Welsh bairn i won't justify your dribbling mess about nations with a reply, and suggest you consult Google. The Falklands is a colony, don't ask me ask the un. If you think it should remain British you re a colonialist. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRob72 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Are you going to actually address the points you moronic snake? He can't and isn't capable, 'the raging bigot' is the natural default position. Gotta be honest I'm getting a little bored of Pep now. There are plenty of pro-independence posters on here who are much more worthwhile in paying attention to and listening to what they have to say. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
