She also suggested that exploiting oil reserves in the area was not a realistic option as a spill would be an ecological disaster without access to logistical support from Argentina.

It's hard to win a moral argument when you are willing to resort to that kind of blackmail.

'But she predicted international pressure would force the UK to the negotiating table over sovereignty'

I think she's rather missing the point that most Britains think it's no other fecker's business.

Don't know why we don't offer them a 50/50 split of the profits. That way they will stop squarking and how they waste it is up to them.

It's not even our business. It's the islanders business. What they was is, and always should be, final.

It's not our profits to offer. It's the Falklanders profits. And offering any at all would be like admitting Argentina had a claim on the islands. It just isn't going to happen.
I just expect the Argies to get worse at harrising shipping etc, banning vessels supporting the Falklands industries from their ports and trying to get the rest of Latin America to do the same.

And they have made it very clear that all but three want to stay British.
