Re: Falkland Isles/Malvinas

I've been to the Islands and met the locals. A very grateful bunch of folks I thought. They pay taxes to Britain and deserve to be looked after. How could the relatives of the two hundred and fifty men and women, who lost their lives twenty five years ago, come to terms with Argentina getting sovereignty now?

The older ones amongst us must remember 1982 when the whole of Britain was backing the war. To give in now would make those losses of life so futile and the proud feelings turn to dust.
