May 15th, 2010 - 06:14 am - Link - Report abuse 0CFK should start fruitful cooperation with the Falklands islands if she wants to get anywhere!
May 15th, 2010 - 09:49 am - Link - Report abuse 0I see Cameron ha clarified the position of what the Falklands are much better than previous governments identifying the FIG and the Falklands as a separate body to that of the UK govt who had no part in approving this drilling.
Clever Cameron, this puts CFK in an awkward position as she pathetically tries to ignore the Falklands as a separate entity....
LOL.
May 15th, 2010 - 03:18 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Well, well, well Cristina (and jorge!) no joy with another British Government. And now you know that the UK supports the legal entities of the Falkland Islands and the Falkland Islands Government.
May 15th, 2010 - 06:29 pm - Link - Report abuse 0“Fruitful co-operation” with Argentina. That's Argie-speak for “Give us what we want or we'll throw a tantrum.”
So, no negotiations and no Falkland Islands. Best thing for Argentina is to get rid of “Kickback” Kirchner and his other half and then offer the Falkland Islands Government any Argentine land and facilities required for a small share of the possible wealth.
Of course, this might require a greater British military presence just to ensure, in view of past behaviour, Argentine compliance with any agreements. But the costs of that can come out of Argentina's share.
Distinct that, almost, everyone benefits. The Falkland Islanders get a bonanza and say goodbye to a bellicose neighbour, Argentina gets some money, gets rid of the Kirchners and may be welcomed back into the intelligent international community, after amending its constitution, and Britain gets to rebuild its armed forces after 13 years of Labour mismanagement.
How long will it take to re-educate the Argentine people too accept THE TRUTH? No real information. But it might be possible by the time the oil runs out.
Keep dreaming, you naïveté!!!!!!!!!!

Nico: Again with the you tube posts? Do you actually read anything or you only watch videos? I don't think Argentina could attack the Falklands with 39 out of date ships and no air craft carrier much less defend your own territory. The Ks have cut the Military budget so much that the 70s era equipment is falling apart and Air force doesn't have enough money to buy jet fuel. You can't do much if you can't train. All the soldiers do now is sit around drinking Mate and “taking care of” each other. Try not to embarrass yourself any further.

The City of London has 2.90 km2 or 1.12 sq miles mate http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_of_London
But London (what is another thing) is the City of London plus Great London or Greater London.Greater London is the conurbation around the city formed by 32 boroughs and has the size you have mentioned 659 sq miles and a population of 7,5 millions.
Buenos Aires:
The city of Buenos Aires Federal District has 203 km2 (78.5 sq miles) as you can see is 70 times bigger than the city of London.
Just part of the City http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_of_London

But Buenos Aires, like London, has the Great Buenos Aires (the conurbation around the City) formed by 24 boroughs.

The capital city of England, London includes 32 boroughs. Another misconception would be the City of Westminster. They're just boroughs, which were once city's.
The UK have a lot of very old strange non official things about out nation, for instance london is not “officially” our capital city. Our constitution is unwritten. Things just “are” how they are.
The London area(What people consider central London.) is 1,579 square kilometres and had 7,172,036 people nine years ago, the larger London area is 8,382 square kilometers and a population of between 12 and 14 million people.
Im sure why that matters anyway, just pointing it out.
London has 2 autonomous Regional authority Government.
May 20th, 2010 - 09:52 am - Link - Report abuse 0Great London under the “Greater London Authority” headed by “Boris Johnson” the blond funny guy.
And the City of London under the municipal governing body headed by Nick Anstee. And has an established population of around 8000 inhabitant. Has its own police and everything independent like an estate.
Your London (what is a region) would be like Buenos Aires region (province) which has a population of more than 15 millions inhabitants.
The tube in London is divided in zones 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 and range from west Dryton to Purfleet.
Did I pass the test? I was living in London fore a while have you ever been in Buenos Aires?
So I’m not like you too, I mean engaged in this silly my city or region of great or my financial district, etc is bigger or much better or largest than yours.
I like just you’ve said “pointing it out”.
And by the way this silly discussion started because Mr. agent0060 wanted to send to us first 1 BGM-109 Tomahawk to sink Argentina, then a Trident and later a whole bunch of nuclear missiles with 52 kilotons of power. So I was giving him some information to make his trigonometric calculations to point the toys to the right direction. So we can make a big barbecue while we return his touching deference.

London is a region made by the City of London plus the Greater London plus the rest = Region
You are confuse with capitals the capital of UK and The capital of Argentina.
Buenos Aires is a large metropolitan area but divided by administrative and political divisions. Is all the same mass of building houses, highways, roads, etc.
The head of the city of Buenos Aires is Mauricio Macri (like a Mayor) and the Governor of the Estate (or province or region) of Buenos Aires is Daniel Scioli
So a region in Britain or a Government Office Regions (9 in England if I’m not mistaken) is like our province organization or estates.
And now I will google to show you guys that I am right and you don’t know were you live. And you want to talk about Malvinas Sovereignty?
City of London
Comparable with City of Buenos Aires city=city Anstee Macri
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_of_London
Greater London http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_of_London Johnson=> Scioli
comparable with greater Buenos Aires or Metropolitan Area or GBA or Cono Urbano Bonaerense.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_of_London
London Region = Province of Buenos Aires a territory far larger than the whole UK.
So in any mean by political division, metropolitan area or region Buenos Aires is far larger than any organization in UK.
TOP 20 metropolitan Areas in the world by population
Buenos Aires 13,170,000 density 1,210 km2.
London 12,875,000 density 1,130 km2.
I don’t know nothing about London Um...
Brixton Academy in front there is the police station some blocks to the south there tube station to the left there was a records shop called Red records. In the same street Brixton Road there is a branch of Abby national an the Lambeth borough office is in the corner in front use to be a cinema and library and before the street Sudbourne road is a club called The Fridge.
How do I know that zethe? by wiki?
Your comparable is still wrong. In English law any area with a cathedral is defined as a city, st john's is a small area with less than a thousand people living in the area, yet is still defined as a city.

A city, is a large metropolitan area, of wich london is very simular to your capital in size and population.
Another note, Lord mayor of the city of London is a ceremonial title, he does not run the borough. The lord mayor spends his time promoting business.

Yes matter not for the size else because as ever you have your information wrong, mate.
If you don’t understand your political organization of you little own country. How can you understand the Malvinas issue?
My comparable is absolute right mate.
“A city, is a large metropolitan area,” yes
“..london is very simular to your capital in size and population.” No
Buenos Aires has more than 13 millions people in it. Buenos Aires City “like your London City division of 1 mile sq“ plus the whole conglomerate extended to 30 km in some parts
You are hard as rock to understand eh!
The division is fictional for administrative and political issues not physical. The limit is General Paz Avenue http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avenida_General_Paz
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avenida_General_Paz and a little river like your Thames River.
Metropolitan area, no spaces, no countryside, mountain or anything just continued urbanization but far, far, far and more far largest and taller in average than London.
So why I cannot split the city of London from Greater London and you yes can split the city of Buenos Aires from its natural metropolis called Buenos Aires eh!?
So lets get right here if you are talking about city of London the only city with that name in UK is this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avenida_General_Paz
If you talk about greater London also known as London metropolitan area is this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avenida_General_Paz
And London Region is this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avenida_General_Paz
And if you mayor of the city of London doesn’t do anything take a siesta drink beer of promotes his business has nothing to do with this. Macri also promote his business and don’t do anything at all and?
Think about it...

Yes London is the capital of UK the whole stuff but the city is not the capital is London.
“currently the financial center of the world” the city of London is the financial centre knows as the City. And now is the City of London Corporation. Finsbury park for example is not part of the financial centre may be some rock festivals and concerts.
And to confuse you more (because you are) the legal name of what you think is Buenos Aires is “Ciudad Autonoma de Buenos Aires” CABA 3 m people permanent residents.
People in the capital city (CABA) are recognized as Porteños and whe you cross an Avenue General Paz as Bonaerenses (From Buenos Aires). La Plata is the head of the estate and they are Platenses
And
And for someone that claims to be from London in Britain financial hub they say CENTRE and not CENTER like the Americans. Or you are from London in Argentina? Yes we have a London somewhere I don’t remember were Cordoba perhaps.

A capital city is usually referred to as the seat of government, right? The city of London is not this. this would be another borough - The city of Westminster, which has the houses of parliament, the queens residence and no.10 downing street.
The city of London is just a name, like the city of Westminster. As the current city of London was created by the two ancient city's merging, because of this they still hold city status, but they are not administered as city's, they are boroughs within the new city of London.
The city of London acts as the city's(London) financial and business center, Westminster acts as the seat of government.
Do you understand?

I can't claim to have understood any of that - but the Houses of Parliament are in the City of Westminster not the City of London - if that helps you?

Buenos Aires Estate is like your London region But Buenos Aires is so huge that has several districts inside for political division and administration. This Buenos Aires is bigger than the whole UK.
The city of Buenos Aires (can you see here? Of Buenos Aires CABA) is our Financial centre federal district and port and have also a surrender metropolitan area. Is natural the centre of all this urban mass Like London everything, transportation, airports, etc point to that centre.
The city (BA 3m people) has a GDP of 92bn dollars and a GDP per capita of 30.666 (real in official exchange rate) and plus the rest for Buenos Aires made together 220bn.
The federal govt. has the Pink house in the CABA like the white house in US but the residence family is outside Buenos Aires city in Olivos Northern Buenos Aires.
The green area in satellite map is the Cristina House just in case

Move it down, left, top, right to the river and you will see how big is the thing.
An also Buenos Aires is made by several cities inside for administrative issues.
So Buenos Aires alone could be comparable with some little countries in Europe Like Denmark or Portugal and in Latam Chile.
Have you got the picture?
See you,
I really fail to understand what your point is, i've said nothing about your capital city. I know nothing about it, i don't really care either.
May 21st, 2010 - 06:14 pm - Link - Report abuse 0All i'm trying to get through to you is the fact that the capital city of the UK is London which is a city, not the borough “the city of London”.

So what is all this explanation about London mate?
I know very well London, for me living in Buenos Aires is a little funny town nothing to be impressive of flat old and dangerous.
“All i'm trying to get through to you is the fact that the capital city of the UK is London which is a city, not the borough “the city of London”.”
I know that London is the capital of UK and?
But what you have done is compared Buenos Aires with London.
Will you compare NY with London too?
I'm just asking may be you think that there is really something to compare with.
Well nothing mate NY Large city London Medieval Victorian style city with some building there. Just in case you engage yourself with a yank my city your city to avoid you the embarrassment.
Regards,
it's you who is comparing city's lol, all i've done is explain to you about london. I couldn't care less about Buenos Aires.
