Someone I know posts to RIP LinkedIn posts from the Falklands era. (on this day posts) All lads in their late teens or early twenties with the occassional older. Such a loss they represent. Good that they are remembered.

In a statement following the row, the EU foreign policy service clarified the bloc's position, telling several newspapers: "The EU member states have not changed their views and positions concerning the Falklands/Islas Malvinas.
"The EU is not in a situation to express any position on the Falklands/Islas Malvinas, as there is not any council discussion on this matter."
Haha fuck Sunak. It's just another manifestation of Brexit. Welcome to being on the outside pissing in.
Well nothing's happened.
The EU are not referring to The Falklands as the Malvinas. They've "clarified" (changed?) their position in the last couple of hours.
See the link I posted above.
Yeah I got all that. I was just making the point that stuff like this probably wouldn't have even needed amending if the EU still had the UK within it looking after its interests.
Meh. It was the usual meaningless load of old bollocks raised by Argentinas/Celac, about Falklands sovereignty, which the EU kicked into the long grass, but some minion used the wrong words and is probably getting told-off as we speak. The EU couldn't give a fuck about The Falklands, and would far prefer Argentina just to go away.
That’s the point, the EU doesn’t care, the U.K. got played and Sunak threw his toys out. And then it all had to be backpeddled. A needless waste of time for all sides except Argentina who take all the troll points.
If there wasn't oil in the area no one would give a shit.
The amount of oil extraction taking place is low but that's mainly because investors are shit scared of putting money into a political hot potato.
If there wasn't Antarctica in the area...If there wasn't oil in the area no one would give a shit.

Not for Brexit, but certainly for the usual suspects in the U.K. right wing media and Tory politicians, who once again have taken the bait and exposed themselves though their apoplectic reaction as the raving lunatic gammons yelling at clouds that they are.You're viewing this from a very strange perspective. The UK hasn't been played at all. This was a fuck-up by the EU which they've now back-tracked on. Argentina take no troll points whatsoever because the EU have had to reiterate their position which is not what the Argentinians want it to be. At best, if Britain was still an EU member they might have been able to clip the original statement but it's hardly one in the eye for Brexit.

Catholics do love a bit of fascismI remember I was working on a building site in London at the time. Mainly Irish. A great bunch.
Not great supporters of British armed forces or Thatcher. They called Falkland the Malvinas. Remember one who told me that he went to his local supermarket and make sure his tinned Corn Beef was Argentinian. Coming from a country that had to fight to get its freedom from the British Imperialism they had a different perspective from the flag waving that went on during the Falklands war. As far as they were concerned the Falklands was one of those place the Brits occupied.
