@ I (no. 23)
I am home. The Falklands is my home. I was born here, and 6 generations of my family before me. My family has deeper roots in the Falklands than yours in Argentina, and with this in mind, you are telling me to get out of the Falklands because it belongs to people like you...? I wonder if your family has been in Argentina for more than 7 generations, if not, I have stronger and deeper roots in South America than you.

Come back to me and the rest of the Meropress commenters when you have a proper arguement, other than the laughable arguements you already present.

Wow I is stupider than I thought :)

Does this boy seriously think that Oil production suddenly and magically manifests itself when oil is discovered?

What a Nugget!

And what is this unhealthy obsession with Darwin Clifton? Does this moron of the highest order think that Desire petroleum is the only company looking for oil?

What a nugget!
