  So where will she stay, if not on the island.

  St Helena is becoming very important strategically speaking- forget about tourism.

  @2. St Helena has no strategic significance. RMS St Helena will be decommissioned from July/August 2016. Now look up the airport's capabilities.

  @1, She is Resident Governor on St Helena, and NON-resident on Ascension and Tristan-da-Cunha.
  
  Good Luck Lisa, you only have small shoes to fill, so it shouldn't be to difficult to shine as St H's New Governess. The last two have been shocking.
  Just try listening to the Islanders a bit instead of the short term expats..

  The great challenge of the twenty-first century is to explain the British that we are in the twenty-first century.

  Which is exactly why, as they move towards self determining their future, it is important they have good leadership. Or they could go the way of , for instance, a certain ex-Spanish colony in the south east of the Americas.

  @5
  “The great challenge of the twenty-first century”
  
  Is to explain to Argentina that we aren't in the 19th century.
  I like your new air defence fighters, that are currently patrolling your borders Pucaras and machine gun equipped Tucano trainers.
  
  The RAF will soon be phasing out Tucano trainers and fighter-wise we are working out on F35 Lightnings
  
  Still if Macri speaks nicely to the UK we can bring Argentina's forces into the 20th century by loaning them the Battle of Britain memorial flight.
