Hi Stu, sorry for the poorly worded message earlier, what I mean't was that yes the warships were still in the Falklands last time I was there.
The reality is that these Islands are 250 miles from the nearest coastline, have only ever been properly colonised by the British, and were initially discovered by the British and French before the Spanish took an interest later on.
The British left the islands for a period of time, then kicked out the Spanish when they came back.
What if the islands attempted to go completely independant? Would the Argentinians accept that? I dont think so.
