It's all a bit daft with it being so far away, look at it on a map it's crazy really.
But what's done is done, nobody can turn back the clock they want to be Brits, serviceman have died over it, both British & Argentinian.
It isn't about oil but no doubt that is now a major factor in the re-opening of the international debate on the issue by Argentina, who as you point out are on shaky ground as far as playing the colonialism card.
We're OK until the US fall in behind their American comrades, then we'll have to give it back.
It'll be like Hong Kong, without XXL16.
