    I'm trying hard not to put my fist through the screen. Typical BBC paying that obnoxious slug Galloway to stir things up

    There was a massive 98.8% majority of yes in the Falklands vote, only 3 people voted no.

    In other island news it was reported that Carlos, Sergio and Diego had dog sh1t put through their letterboxes

    Apparently they're giving up on The Falklands now. They have their eye on something far more valuable

    To be honest, the falklands are probably the worst place on earth to live, I've been there several times and have no desire to ever return. I can still smell the penguin .... when I think about it, probably mixed with the locals residue from mating with the penguins on an evening due to lack of decent women.

    Seriously though, if the locals want to stay there, who are we to argue.

    War is always a good way to drum up support when the economy isn't great as a Prime Minister, Thatcher, Blair and Bush all knew that well.
    Get the people behind you by showing some muscle and banging the war drums.

    I suspect nothing will ever come of it.

    Going back to 1982,I was so proud on Maggie's stance and taking no .... from the Argies
    I think the Argentinians ought to concentrate on doing what they do best,selling corned beef and praising a cheating,drug fulled fat little footballer (and no Dedworth not rooney)
