May 10th, 2012 - 08:20 pm - Link - Report abuse 0She is a spoilt detested lady, looking desperately for help.
May 10th, 2012 - 08:44 pm - Link - Report abuse 0No calls to the others, just these two,
Mr Holland was refused a meeting with the British prime minister, and he has a very shallow liking for the British,
And we all know what putin thinks,
But alas, this mr Holland, has many walls to climb before he gets round to the British, if he ever does,
He came in on a promise, he has in fact, inherited the frying pan, from the fire,
Merkle of Germany says NO to German money, or alteration of the treaty,
Mr Holland is /was elected to alter both, and to spend his way out of trouble,
And the unions will bring him down if he fails to reign in Germany,
So Mr Holland, welcome to real world of politic corruption incompetence and back stabbing,
We wish you well, as you are going to need every bit of it .
So where are all of Britain's friends compared to Argentina then?
May 10th, 2012 - 09:06 pm - Link - Report abuse 0France seems not, from what I just read here.
Putin same.
Spain we know what the issue is.
Italy, drifted from UK since Berlusconi days.
China is frosty.
South America ex-Argentina, iffy with the Falklands matter.
Germany? With the transanction tax we know the current state, Merkel hasn't met cameron any time recently
Scotland? Maybe drifting away
USA? Obama still there
Venezuela? LOL
Iran? ROTFL
So where is this entire world that some Brits here claim support them and trust to the hip?
Don't tell me there is some gross overestimating going on?
yep
May 10th, 2012 - 09:13 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Who said the whole world, was it not CFK that said that,
As for the euro gravy train,
Its just business,, with Germany
As for America, well obarmy will be gone in November,
Mr putin, , well he is allowing the red arrows to fly over Moscow,
Italy, well that’s ital is it not
Spain, just like Argentina, no sense no feeling,
Scotland well that always was a bit fishy,
Ah France, this is just a thousand year friendly rivalry lol.
Mmm china, very nice plates .
South America, interesting jigsaw this one,
But will finish with a nice picture, but with a few plastic bits missing,
That’s all was lol.
@3 Scotland is part of Britain you idiot! trust me I live there!
May 10th, 2012 - 09:13 pm - Link - Report abuse 0France. France will do whatever is best for France aint that right Mr Hollande.
May 10th, 2012 - 09:23 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Putin, 3rd term in office, may change his opinion in his 6thterm alternating with Mr Medvedev of course.
Spain, to busy with her own problems.
Italy, lost count, how many governments since WW2, is it now, 50?
China. Will buy resources from anyone, biggest capitalists in Far East.
South America ex Argentina, no, no, no a thousnad times no. No negotiations.
Germany. Renegotiate the treaty, on your bike. Ps London is still the financial capital of the world.
Scotland, there decision. Is called democracy.
Venezuela. All that oil and still can not treata cancer conditions.
Iran. Shouldn't play with matches.
There an alternative version of the rest of the world.
Still, I'm upset they prefer to trade with you than us. No not really, just joking!
Toby, Even if Obama is lukewarm to UK the USA is a firm ally. UK is well loved here in the USA. Their Embassy is huge and they regularly meet with the highest levels of our Gov't and Business leaders.

May 10th, 2012 - 09:41 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Get off your self-proclaimed high ground. More pro-Malvinistas on this site claim the world's support than pro-Falklands bloggers by a significant number. It stands to reason because it's the Malvinistas who need the world's support. After all, they're the ones who are trying to force a change.
I admire you in a way Tobias. Your bitterness towards the UK is so strong that you come on all of these Malvinas vs. Falklands discussions just to get stuck into the UK. Even though you think the Falklands should remain in our hands you still need to have a pop at the UK. Fair enough.
Tobias is just lacking Vitamin D from having been in his basement all week.

@3 - Tobias, you're the most incompetent Malvinista on here. It's unbelievable you idiots still think ANYBODY cares about this stupid issue your pathetic country has.
May 10th, 2012 - 09:47 pm - Link - Report abuse 0France = Will spend its way into oblivion because the people refuse to cut back, so they really aren't a factor as they bend over for Germany.
Russia = Putin could not care less about Argentina's embarrassing government. He's too concerned trying to reform the Soviet Union.
Spain = Very likely to back any action against Argentina as they WITHDREW from supporting you, and you recently STOLE their company, enraging the Spanish press.
Italy = Less important than Ethiopia on the world stage, and EU enemy no.2 when it comes to the financial crisis.
China = Economy likely beginning to recede, has enough to worry about in the South China Sea involving the Philippines.
South America = I believe these “brothers” of yours humiliated you at the Americas summit by not even discussing this stupid issue.
Germany = Too busy bailing out the Eurozone to matter in any way.
Scotland = Still part of the UK last time I checked, moron.
USA = Obama just lost several swing states in the south by flip flopping on gay marriage (not to mention Latinos heavily oppose this idea)
Venezuela = Chavez has death in sight (thank God) Who will KFC take orders from then?
Iran = Likely to be a warzone in the next five months, if Israel's recent government shakeup is anything to go by.
Perhaps you need to go and rethink this one. Argentina is the joke of the world.

You could even join the FIDF.
@3:
May 10th, 2012 - 10:41 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Argentina seems to be intent on making the same mistakes Germany made in the last century. But there is one aggravating factor: in contrast to the latter, which led the charge against its enemy, the former wants to outsource all of its casualties. Add to a vile disposition the highest degree of cowardice, and you get the mindset of Brazil's neighbour from hell. Fortunately, its attempts at manipulation are ludicrously amateurish. Tobias, it is only by means of war that your country can dream of annexing the Falkland Islands, and in such a blatantly immoral endeavour it will always be alone. Nobody will ever be to it what the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand have consistently been to the United Kingdom. Brazil in particular will not shed any blood for it. Please face the fact that it has neither military nor soft power, and change your ambitions.
It has been done before so there is precedent. 1833, a number of folk, including South Americans were invited to stay and did just that. As I understand it, their descendants are still there 9 generations later. I am sure you would be made most welcome Marcos.

If Marcos wanted to become a citizen of the Falkland Islands that fine by me. I'm not sure he has the right frame of mind for it though, and feel he may struggle to settle in, especially if he keeps believing the lies fed to him by his current government.

May 11th, 2012 - 12:12 am - Link - Report abuse 0You're the gift that keeps on giving. With your ludicrous rants and uneducated posts you're what's known in the English speaking world as a 'gift horse'. I'm not sure on the Spanish translation is as I don't know the word for twat!
France: “we are natural partners in security and defence and our countries share values, global interests and responsibilities”
http://www.number10.gov.uk/news/uk-france-declaration-security/
Putin: Russia hasn't been one of Britain’s friends for a long time, about 1917 actually.
Spain: “we know what the issue is” - yes, another Spanish speaking country on the verge of collapse using the UK to distract popular opinion away from the REAL issues. Why worry about massive unemployment and the collapse of the banking system when the UK owns a rock! Look at the pretty rock (fingers crossed - ignore the banks)... look...that rock.....the British stole it!
China: Friends? Since when?
South America: The only SA country with a FI problem is Argentina. Guess what...despite what Alicia Castro says, Argentina does NOT speak for SA. Nobody cares!
Germany: Have you ever met a German? Of all the countries in Europe they have more in common with the Brits than any other. They may disagree about the transaction tax, but they have (which you don't) an understanding of 'respect'. It's an interesting concept, you may want to look it up, although I suspect you won't understand it.
Scotland: Still part of the UK. If they choose independence, as they are entitled to under the concept of self determination (which you don't believe in) then the rest of the UK will wish them all the best. They will still remain neighbours, friends and allies.
USA: Over 400 years of shared history with the UK against 3 years of BO. Of course the US will back you.
Venezuela & Iran: Really? I assume you ran out of countries?
Face it. No one likes you, no one trusts you, and f it comes to the crunch no one backs you...except Venezuela...ha ha ha ha!
You just... ranted.
May 11th, 2012 - 12:16 am - Link - Report abuse 0But anyway, thank goodness Argentina needs not to worry about relations with other countries. Isolationism is best.

May 11th, 2012 - 12:28 am - Link - Report abuse 0Thanks again for your kind invitation, however you should invite that fake Argentinian Simon68 instead because I can go to any corner of my beautiful country, including Malvinas, as I wish without the need of such invitation.
@32
May 11th, 2012 - 12:51 am - Link - Report abuse 0Ranted? Really? I'd say I just answered and pointed out the obvious flaws in your post.
In the words of Charles de Gaulle, in international relations, there are no friends, only interests. So Argentina's interests are met by CFK's stalking of the new presidents of France and Russia is expected - they are permanent UN Security Council members, and would be useful to help secure Argentina as non-permanent member at the 67th General Assembly in October, representing Latin America and the Caribbean.
May 11th, 2012 - 02:49 am - Link - Report abuse 0Argentina probably figures that UK will oppose, perhaps US too, but China would probably support Argentina.
Certainly Putin isn't friendly with Britain now, but while the Russian might like projecting power through their huge navy, getting into the South Atlantic region could be problematic.
In some ways, Putin might want to keep his projection of power closest around Russia's maritime frontiers and not venture too far. Of course, Russia has its exclave Kaliningrad and disputed Kurile Islands, so might be some sensitivity there about any support for Argentina's position on the Falklands. Ditto France as fellow EU member with Overseas Territories might not want to get into anything too deep with CFK.
Probably both Russia and France would hope that Argentina wants “friendship” bad enough that CFK will buy weaponry, as both France and Russia have lots to sell.
South America: The only SA country with a FI problem is Argentina. Guess what...despite what Alicia Castro says, Argentina does NOT speak for SA. Nobody cares!

That so called “special relationship” is actually between Goldman Sachs and the UK ..where Cammoron was spending more time when he arrived in the US. Goldman Sachs, your master...oh and let me not forget JP Morgan Chase.

What a ridiculous headline, its entirely normal for a President to congratulate a newly elected President, especially if they agree on economics (not that I expect Hollande to be as radical or as successful as Cristina, but any influence she can have on him is to the good) and for Presidents to meet at the G20, of which Argentina is, always has been and always will be a member =)

I don't believe Chavez is certain to die, but he has never given orders to my Queen, in fact he confessed at one international summit to taking orders from her. I hope he lives so they can continue to learn from each others experiences for years to come, but it always amazes me how the same people who call Cristina a dictator see her as unable to think for herself. Is it because she's a woman?
”Iran = Likely to be a warzone in the next five months, if Israel's recent government shakeup is anything to go by.“
If there is a war in Iran, up goes the whole Middle East, its oil, and the economies of the world. Lets hope for both our sakes it doesn't happen

@59 Of course there is happiness in my life. I am in paroxyms of joy as I tell most argies and a number of other cretinous south americans what I think of them. Are you encountering misery? Goodie! You deserve it. As for that “waste of natural resources”, turn around, bend over and I'll shove it all where it deserves to be. I don't have a brother. What you need to understand is that south americans are well down the league table in potential intelligence and things I care about. Above you comes Asia. Then Australia and New Zealand. Then the United States. Then Europe, sometimes. except when they piss me off. And finally, right up at the top of the tree and in a perfect position to drop clag on anyone, Britain. Well, most of Britain. Scotland is teetering on the brink of becoming part of Europe. Not surprising as they have often had a blowjob relationship with the French. Then there's the Northern Irish who have a lot to answer for. The Welsh are mostly OK as their main claims to fame are sheep and singing. I'm quite keen on the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands. But nowhere, of course, compares to beautiful England. I hope this helps you understand your place in the great scheme of things. So you can quit wasting your time trying to make me “feel” something about you. I already know what you are and, to make it clear without being unnecessarily rude, you cannot aspire to the same level of estimation that I give to the stuff I may be forced to scrape off my boots after traversing a field used for grazing cattle.
