    It is disgutsing that these nations continue to neglect the people of the Falklands. They seem to advise on situations they have no knowledge of and no consultation with the people that they are affecting.

    It is like that the people of the Falklands have no rights, and their futures can be decided by others who cannot run their own country properly without masssive corruption. They need to sort themselves out before they start advising other countries who are free of corruption, are transparent and practice good governance.

    Why is it that when sovereignty comes to mind, the word corruption came right after it. Its like a nation with corruption lacks of any sovereignty rights at all. Did the parliament of the uk fixed their “increase” in its budget?.
    I dont see your point Joe.
