Indeed, if CFK really wants to seduce the Falkland Islanders, she better start doing something positive for once and not just allow - but promote - Falkland Islands cruises. As it is, there is a huge interest in South Atlantic cruises of Antarctica-South Georgia-Falkland Islands. It could only benefit Argentina and Uruguay to combine with the the South Atlantic cruise ship growth.

Maybe she doesn't, loyalty to Nestor and all that =) But seriously wouldn't this all be simpler if it wasn't for Cameron's rejectionism and militarisation, it takes two to tango after all. Anyway dont people like you on here keep saying the Falklanders want NOTHING to do with Argentina at all?

Your right the Cruise liners should just bypass rgenweener and go to the Falklands, the rg's would only steal your dollars anyway. Just for you BK tissue man ref militarisation we have had a Naval presence in the South Atlantic since the War, one patrol vessel Now a Tyne class patrol boat which took over from the Castle class OPV's stationed all year round changing crews 6 monthly and a nominated Frigate/Destroyer which relieve each other 6 monthly, are programmed a year ahead do a work up before they are allowed to deploy. And of course the polar Circle (ex Endurance). So the rg's claim to us upping the military is as always a load of crap, unless they are upset because we sent the most modern destroyer in the world, but every ship has to take there turn at some point, same as Gulf patrol. This is fact! If HMS Dauntless (a Destroyer) is relieved by a FRIGATE, does that mean we are de-militarizing the South Atlantic?

Argentina's banning of cruise ships that have visited the Falklands means they will loose huge amounts of tourist money that will go somewhere else. A bit like Brazil hosting an international meeting on conservation, whilst they forced native indians out of their land by flooding them with a dam.

It really is laughable as the people on the tourist ships visiting the Falklands want to visit South America as well, but probably don't include many Falkland Islanders as tourists.

Another example of Argentinas colonialist 19th century diplomacy 'skills'
