Dec 07th, 2013 - 05:51 am - Link - Report abuse 0Gawd awful boring as per usual José.
Jose, nothing on the islands has changed. There has been no push to give the islands to Argentina, despite all of Cristina's shouting and screaming. There has been no move by the UN to “de-militarize” the islands or no offer of talks to give the islands to Argentina. I think you need to understand something here - Argentina will never have the islands never. I think instead of getting all bitter and twisted about it you just have to accept it. There will be no war again fro the islands, there will be no great South American invasion of these islands and the people who live there, who were born there and who made Stanley with their own bare hands - will never just hand the islands over to Argentina. Go and concentrate on sorting out your own country and leave the people of the islands to get on with their own lives!

¡Qué pelotudo!
@1 I seem to remember we had a virus 1n 1982, with a little antivirus it was considered totally eradicated 74 days later, the virus is still in South America but we are immune to it now.
Dec 07th, 2013 - 12:59 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@1 There are better measures. For example, do not permit latinos to board any international transport. Then there's, if they do get aboard, make them swim the rest of the way. For air “passengers”, there should also be the high dive competition. Worth considering fusing their hands to their suitcases and, where appropriate, towing them behind. Be considerate with the baggage allowance. Should be at least a thousand kilos. Add lead until the allowance is reached. Care should be taken with implanted argies. Head downwards is best. Remember that winding sacking around the part to be planted is recommended. And don't forget to “prune” severely. Chop off anything that looks pointless.
Dec 07th, 2013 - 01:18 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@5 There's something that can be pruned!
Aww, come on guys, give him a break to have a bit of fun.
Dec 07th, 2013 - 01:25 pm - Link - Report abuse 0We all did the same before - like when the 'eradication program' kicked-off in South Georgia.
It's hard to eradicate the little bugs - whether its noros, foot & mouth, blue tongues or badger-tubercles,
but the rivertingly-constant attention from the little guys on the cruise ships with the squirts of deadly-gel seems to keep most bugs at arms' length.
Get on (squirt), eat (squirt), drink (squirt), loo (squirt), eat (squirt), sleep (squirt), eat (squirt), loo (squirt), get off (squirt), get on (squirt), eat (squirt), casino (squirt), take your winnings (squirt), drink (squirt), show (squirt), drink (squirt), loo (squirt), squirt (sleep).

@1 Jose, they are FALKLANDERS not English or British, Christ Jose is dumb.

Dec 07th, 2013 - 07:36 pm - Link - Report abuse 0you hate what you do not understand,
lets hope you never get infected,
or you may find you will have to beg these naughty brits for help,
or be proud and die..??
1) Please note for “norovirus” - please read “Argentine trolls”!
Dec 07th, 2013 - 08:58 pm - Link - Report abuse 02) @9 Conqueror - not ALL latinos. There are millions of latinos who loathe “los gauchos”, my wife being one of them. She is very civilised and makes an excellent travelling companion in any form of transport!
@1 Jose
Dec 07th, 2013 - 10:15 pm - Link - Report abuse 0As the English aren't on any Malvinas Argentine islands its going to be difficult for them to be removed isn't it?
“As the English aren't on any Malvinas Argentine islands.”
Dec 10th, 2013 - 01:43 pm - Link - Report abuse 0lol.
Yeah. Except for all the part time residents from blighty.
Most of the islanders/planters were born in England and lived in England.

He means that there is no such place as Malvinas Argentine Islands, you know a bit like Never Never Land (never was never will be).
@15
Dec 12th, 2013 - 12:16 am - Link - Report abuse 0Most of the Falkland Island population were born on the Islands not in England.
What the hell are planters? Tussac planters? Diddle Dee planters? Vanilla Daisy planters? Carrot planters? Potato planters?- Tomato planters?Blue Mountain grass planters? White Grass planters? Tree planters?
What crop?
@16 Benson
Correct, when I lived in the Falkland Islands, there were no Malvinas signs anywhere , no Malvinas on my Driving Licence, or on any maps, so the Malvinas must indeed be a never never land presumably inhabited, by fairies, pixies, elves or some other mythical creatures.
