¿C24?
Ya no es relevante para la descolonización de las Islas.
La resolución C24 está bloqueada por la Cuarta Comisión, según lo acordado con Argentina en 1989/90.

El C24 es una pantomima. Una farsa.

If there was evidence, then Argentina would have gone to the ICJ in 1946

El adoctrinamiento de los Argies es lamentable
Argentina no tiene derechos
Argentina no tiene soberanía
Argentina no tiene ningún reclamo
Islas Falkland son Británicas - antes de que existiera Argentina.

Piratas?
Hipocresía
Argentina le quita tierras a Paraguay
Argentina le roba la Patagonia a las tribus.
Y sin embargo, ustedes lo único que pueden hacer es quejarse de las Falklands, que nunca fueron suyas.

Nonsense. The resolution was adopted by consensus, as it is every year. So there was no vote, and no abstentions. Not that it matters. Since 1989 the C24 resolution is automatically blocked by the 4th Committee.

Los británicos tienen una base en las Islas Falkland. Para defender su territorio legítimo en el Atlántico Sur británico.

Quite the contrary. Argentina's claim is founded upon an unrecognised inheritance from Spain.
If Argentina had a claim - historical, legal or geographical - it would have gone to the ICJ in 1946.
A little history

Roger doesn't care. I am quite happy with the current arrangements which will adjust with every new government. And there will still be no push to the UK to go back into the EU. relax children. We are out, you are in. Win, win.

Negotiations?
Were never ending - go learn
Negotiations started in 1967

Galtieri stopped negotiations in 1982

Wars do not decide elections. Ask Churchill.
Maggie did good in 1982
falklandstimeline.wordpress.com/wp-content/u...
but Labour gave her the '83 election

That said, the Tories were 2 points ahead 2 days before the invasion.

Grab this - 33% in '79, 22% in '80 & 11% in '81 (although they clawed some back through pension revisions). Mind you, pre-1979 the pay was pretty grim.

Lots of ifs, buts and maybees.
Argentina did invade.
Argentina lost.
It all sort-a worked out in the end.

I was in favour of Brexit. I was also in favour of the Common Market which Thatcher also thought a good idea. The EU grew into something else. If it had stayed the CM we'd still be there.

Belgrano was a long way from the carrier group. I do agree that the loss of a carrier could have been fatal.

The PM did not speak directly to the commander of the Sub. The hierarchy simply doesn't work like that. Nor did the radio. The OD(SA) made decisions on a collective basis. Thatcher was one vote although she could be persuasive. The final decision to press the button was down to the sub commander.

Seriously, I doubt that was ever likely. The biggest danger was the weather with the austral winter. Once we could get boots on the ground, it was all over for Argentina.

... should St. Helena ever seek independence, they could take Ascension Island and Tristan da Cunha, and if the Falklands went independent they could claim the island of South Georgia, the South Sandwich Islands and all the UK's Antarctic claims.

I'm not certain that either the UN or the ICJ was correct. The Chagos were taken from France and never belonged to Mauritius in any real sense of the word. They were only administered from Colonial Mairitius as a matter of convenience for the British government. On that basis, ...

That "Government of Westminster" had Welsh MPs in it, you twit.

An interesting ruling, based upon the lack of consultation with the people of the Chagos - something which, once again, is baffling the UN.

Thatcher was ambushed. Difficult position, as there were things that she could not say. In particular, anything that would tell the Argies that GCHQ was able to decipher their codes. She fumbled the interview, but no, there was no decision by Thatcher to sink the Belgrano.

But there isn't going to be another referendum. It's done. None of the main Parties are considering it.

We will. That has nothing to do with being a member of the EU, but a lot to do with being a member of NATO
