Whilst Tony has been handing out certificates and vetrans badges to commemorate the Falklands war,Argentina has restated its'claim on the isles.
Tension has been building between the two countries and though as yet there have been no sabre rattling,last week Argentina unilaterally scrapped an oil and gas exploration treaty with the UK.
The question is will we soon cede the Falkland Islands as we are hardly in a position to defend them should further agression take place.
Has the government allowed the forces to be run down to a state where we can't say boo to a goose?
