Bahahahahaha I WAS SOOOOOOO RIGHT.
“Better get the minister out of bed Hargreaves...oh no hang on, this is what they always say. Put the kettle on Hargreaves.”
Jan 30th, 2014 - 06:54 am - Link - Report abuse 0Glad to hear about their respect for self-determination, in which case bang goes Argentina's “legitimate rights”.
@1 Anglotino Your exaltations are well-earnt!
Jan 30th, 2014 - 06:55 am - Link - Report abuse 0You are THE man! Proved correct!
”it expresses “its strongest support for the LEGITIMATE rights of Argentina in the sovereignty dispute over the Malvinas, South Georgia and Sandwich and surrounding maritime spaces, as well as a permanent interest that such a dispute is resolved peacefully and through negotiations, according to Resolution 31/49 from the UN General Assembly”.
Because we all know the RGs have No LEGITIMATE Rights. The language of diplomacy reigns supreme... They all could agree without committing to anything concrete! In UK slang it's known as 'wriggle-room', the way one might agree, yet slide out of it.
Anyhoo, no-one in the real world gives a damn what CELAC says... As if this statement wil even cause a ripple...
The whole thing makes me chuckle over my cornflakes
Jan 30th, 2014 - 07:32 am - Link - Report abuse 0Lets look at the main points
“We Celac country members are committed to continue working in the framework of the rule of the law and more specifically Resolution 1514 from the UN General Assembly (14 December 1960, so as to achieve that the whole region of Latin America and the Caribbean become a territory free of colonialism and colonies”
And yet they are looking at Argentina wanting to Colonise the Falklands, ignoring self determination
”Celac is based on 'unrestricted respect for the purposes and principles of the UN Charter and International Law, the peaceful solution of controversies, banning the use and threat of using force, respect for self determination, sovereignty and territorial integrity'
Hang on, banning threat of force, and yet what has been threatened over oil drilling and cruise industry? Respect for self determiation and yet they wont even acknowledge the existence of the islanders.
Sovereignty, hang on I cant even keep this up, as everything invalidates each statement, even sometimes within the same paragraph.
The only thing of interest here, is how many Commonwealth countries supported this along with their paperwork to leave
@4 Vulcanbomber

BTW; 100s of thousands in Argie-beta-tina and Venezuela can only buy Kellog's products at $10 a box, and there is no fresh milk to pour, and no toliet roll to... oh well, you get the picture...
The real people would probaly welcome a touch of 'old-school' colonialism right about now....
The most recent resolution (a binding one, unlike the ones spouted by Argentina et al) was resolution 502, which Argentina ignored.

What a fizzer!
Personally, I'm surprised. After all the build-up, it seems that an assembly of their implanted colonial cousins has offered Argentina nothing but the usual anodyne, lowest common denominator, motherhood and apple pie statements that nobody could possibly object to. It 's no doubt good enough for maintaining the more clueless Malvinistas in their preferred state of neurotic indignation, but as support for Argentina's claim, if that really is what the aim was, it should be seen as a diplomatic disaster.

They made essentially the same statement in 2011 so it's good to see some progress is made, moving from just talking about it to discussing it now to chatting about it. How much does it cost to host these things? I'm glad their economies aren't screwed or anything otherwise it might look, to some, as a bad directing of state funds.

”........ banning the use and threat of using force, respect for self determination, sovereignty and territorial integrity'.
Jan 30th, 2014 - 10:12 am - Link - Report abuse 0“We are committed to work together for the prosperity of all in such a way that discrimination, inequalities and marginalization, violations of human rights and transgressions of the rule of law are eradicated”.
If Argentina signed this document it means that they must lift their embargo on the Falklands, stop trying to marginalize the Islanders and start respecting their human rights.
Oh thats right, I forgot there arent any Falkland Islanders they are all non people!
Does the UN have a category for non-people?
So all Argentina has to do now is PROVE that they have legitimate sovereignty.
Jan 30th, 2014 - 10:13 am - Link - Report abuse 0Oh wait, Argentina can't PROVE that they have legitimate sovereignty, if they could they'd've been at the International Court of Justice in the 1960's, or the 1970's, or the 1980's, or the 1990's or even the 2000's.
In fact, Argentina has had over a century to PROVE that they have legitimate sovereignty, but cannot produce any evidence beyond 'because we want it'.
and now? we carry on as usual.

Jan 30th, 2014 - 11:22 am - Link - Report abuse 0Hypocrites anyone?!
When are they going to enter the real world and realise that Argentina has no legitimate claim?
Or better still back the Argentines by paying for them to go to the International Court - to put their money where their mouth is?
If they honestly believe what they say, then they would seek a legal appraisal of the Argentina claim, which would tell them that they have no claim.
They say that they believe in Self Determination - but not for the Islanders, who apparently do not exist as far as they are concerned.
And whilst they are enjoying this little jolly....
In many of the member countries, the people are suffering great hardship caused by economic mismanagement. The World Cup and the Olympics are due to be held in a country at odds with their public. They are paying for stadiums (which are only half built) when they cannot pay the benefits to people who are starving. No wonder there are riots.
One has to wonder of all the CELAC countries start falling like dominoes when Argentina falls into anarchy and the military take over.

@24
Jan 30th, 2014 - 12:44 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Usual contrarian view, only to be expected. The most important thing is SELF DETERMINATION and that is exactly what the FALKLANDERS have, I hope the Oil companies find huge quantities of oil so they then can claim Independence and move forward without a backward country trying to claim them. As far a isolation is concerned, they will find oil and most countries and Argentina ( after she who must be obeyed ) has left for her enforced exile.
@25
Jan 30th, 2014 - 12:47 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Firstly Celac said in respect of self determination - So no effect on the falklanders trade with soutth american countries that are willing to trade with them.
Secondly, the islands are economically independent from the UK and UK Taxpayers money only pays for the upkeep of the military base and defense of the islands. But once the Oil begins to flow the Islanders will likely contribute towards that cost of defense themselves, therefore reducing the UK Tax Payers costs. The islanders pay for all other services themselves.

Jan 30th, 2014 - 02:35 pm - Link - Report abuse 0How often do you have to be told that the Falklands doesn't receive ANY British taxation? The joint British forces on and around British Overseas Territories in the South Atlantic are paid for by British taxes. But then they would be paid for by British taxes wherever they were. They can be in the Falklands etc, Bermuda, Jamaica, Buenos Aires, anywhere. And, don't forget, the defence of the Falkland Islands against a belligerent, bigoted, corrupt, criminal, deviant, genocidal, larcenous, mendacious, rabid neighbour is covered by 0.3% of the British defence budget. 0.3%! Bet CFK would love a defence budget that size. But that's why the argie air farce only has 25 combat aircraft whilst the RAF has 230, why the argie navvys have ships that dive and submarines that don't and why the argie army has main battle tanks that, compared to the Challenger 2, are like Minis. And you should have seen what the Challengers did to Soviet/Russian tanks during the Iraq War.

@24 isolated by whom? Never isolated by Britain which is where your deluded argument falls over because as long as Britain supports the Falklands you can rant and rave as much as you like because nothing will change and all the countries in the world know that hence the just agree attitude and then the wankers sign behind rgenweeners back.

You pull up a story about a small group of Italian 'lawmakers', who DO NOT speak for Italy.
Italy voted against Argentina's attempt to remove the Falkland Islanders UNIVERSAL RIGHT to SELF DETERMINATION.
Truth hurts, doesn't it?
The only way that Argentina can gain sovereignty of the Falkland Islands is if the people who live there wish it.
So what does the Argentine government do? Do they show the Islanders that they will respect their rights? Do they show the Islanders how their lives could be improved if they voluntarily joined Argentina?
No. Argentina doesn't respect them or their rights as human beings. Argentina cannot offer them anything that they can't get for themselves.
And because Argentina can't give the Islanders a better life, one that would also respect and protect their rights as human beings, you resort to bullying, threatening, crying, crawling and BEGGING.
It's pitiful behaviour. Argentina is a pitiful country, run by thieves and gangsters.

Jan 30th, 2014 - 07:48 pm - Link - Report abuse 0When an article refers to “lawmakers” it generally means members of the national parliament but not necessarily members of the government or even the opposition. Therefore if you can find 2 left-wing MPs with Che t-shirts to support Argentina then you can rightly claim you have the support of lawmakers from that country. For the UK, you could try Galloway or Corbyn - but anyone claiming that UK lawmakers support Argentine colonisation of the Falklands just because you can find a handful, would look pretty foolish given that the other ~600 are against, as are all the mainstream parties. Now that you understand this you may wish to reconsider whether to bring up Ireland, who voted with the UK (see 48 above) when it mattered and whose government (or indeed opposition) has yet to issue support for Argentine colonisation to my knowledge, despite your link.

What you will notice is:
1/ it doesn't say that Argentina has or should have sovereignty
2/ it doesn't say that the Falkland Islanders shouldn't have self determination
What many fail to realise is that 9 of 33 CELAC member states (27% of members) have Queen Elizabeth II as their head of state. The same head of state as the Falkland Islands.

They claim that they 'inherited' the islands, upon independence, but they did not.
They claim that the Islanders are a temporary population & implanted - they are not.
They claim that Britain seized South Georgia & the South Sandwich Islands from Argentina - we did not.
They teach these lies and more to all their school children, to make them the purveyor of lies too.

In Uruguay you could say the military that took over after they had routed the Tupamaros.
You know the Tupas, ignorant rabble, most of whom never finished school and decided to take the government by force because there wasn’t enough support for them take it in elections.
But the laugh was when the military were let off the leash and really started to deal with the Tupas, admittedly in a crass manner, the Tupas RAN AWAY to Sweden.
You know, like your mom and dad which gave you a proper start in life and you learnt English and a career and earned good money but now you are twisted up inside with guilt over “the poor” and you want “brotherly love from SA”.
Perhaps he meant that military!
Stevie your mantra is always one of the samae.....pay your debt. UK EU and the USA DOES pay their debt. Unless your contention is that nations should be debtfree? SHould that not apply to SA nations as well? Have them stop borrowing and defaulting.....and then trying to issue new bonds.

What utter rubbish.
CELAC does not represent all the Latin & South American states, let alone all the states in the Americas.
Canada supports the Falkland Islands.
Bermuda supports the Falkland Islands.
British Virgin Islands supports the Falkland Islands.
The Turks and Caicos Islands supports the Falkland Islands.
Anguilla supports the Falkland Islands.
Cayman Islands supports the Falkland Islands.
Montserrat supports the Falkland Islands.
Saint Martin supports the Falkland Islands.
The BES Islands supports the Falkland Islands.
Saint Barthelemy supports the Falkland Islands.
Guadaloupe supports the Falkland Islands.
Aruba supports the Falkland Islands.
Curacao supports the Falkland Islands.
Bonaire supports the Falkland Islands.
The United States sits on the fence and won't say either way, but they do support the United Kingdom and did so during the Falklands War.
Puerto Rico also sits on the fence.
As does the US Virgin Islands.
That's quite a list of places in the Americas which support the Falkland Islands and not all of them are in the Commonwealth.
Argentina claims support from countries who don't even support them. They even tried to claim that the rigged Daily Telegraph poll, Roger Waters and Morrissey was proof that Great Britain supported them - when that is absolute rubbish.
I suspect that many of the CELAC members did not want to support Argentina either, but were outvoted by the Spanish speaking South American states.
A vast number of the citizens of most of the South American states do not support Argentina. They hate Argentines. They consider them arrogant trouble makers, cheats. liars and thieves.
It will be interesting to see how many South American states come to Argentina's aid when the inevitable financial collapse comes.
Most will want to stand around watching like bystanders at an accident with hands in pockets claiming it's nothing to do with them.

Yes, I think most of us are confused by your definitions in your posts.
If anything the rump of the Tupas have caused even more damage to the working population of the country when in “government” than they ever did when they were terrorists. Shall we list the achievements that our Glorious Leader Pepe has given the people he “rules” (his words).
1) an ongoing debt programme that will take at least two generations to pay back, and for what? (see below)
2) bloated “government” of the lowest class of people who in the most part have not finished school and have no interest in their jobs, road cleaners mostly and other labouring positions. Keeps the unemployment down though doesn’t it? Doesn’t bring any real tax into the system though.
3) the highest tax loading on the continent and most probably in the world and what do we tax payers get for our money? Cleanish streets, the main ones anyway. Overburdened with labour “services” not many of which see themselves as a service, just the opposite. Er, that’s it.
4) very important medical departments run by mates of Pepe: the Toxicology Dept for Maldonado run by an ex-pizza manager! The “government” run by ignorant bastards, at least one of whom is a drunkard and braggart (your “close” friend no less).
5) caved in to The Dark Country’s demand for “tax transparency” when they have none resulting in a major bank leaving the country and Uruguay being known as the pyria of “advanced” countries as far as investors are concerned.
And, as we all know, I could go on about the Social Inclusion Programme, the one that gives money to the poor lazy bastards and the reason why Pepe was asked to “compete” in the Nobel Prize Programme against a few others, but like the Tupa he is he ran away!
I won’t even mention the other economic disasters.

Perfect. Considering I have told thousands of people to visit Colombia and Chile that is actually a good side-effect. Now that I live with 3 Colombians (a new arrival last week), my house is seemingly always packed with Colombians, Venezuelans and Chileans who study or moved here.
The word is to avoid Venezuela as too dangerous. I tell people who are going to visit Argentina to take US$ and either offer to pay in US$ or find a dolar blue rate. I definitely tell them to avoid official exchange rates.

The USA and Canada have both the most loyal, wise and influential nations and institutions backing them, and most importantly are key nations within the Anglosphere. Both nations contributions to progress in the world are only surpassed by a very small select few (and this is without taking into account how young the Lions really are).
The behavior of SA is a kin to a scabies covered mongrel, suffering from malnutrition, barking over a fence at a family building a home for the future and stopping to enjoying a BBQ together. The men of the family try to shoo the mongrel off, alas to no avail.
The men then throw some meat over hoping to satisfy the dog's hunger.
The mongrel scoffs the meat and then sets about climbing the fence to attack the children in the garden. The men rightly shoot the damn thing there and then.
Taking a shovel, they scrape the remains up and throw it back far over the fence.
The men then follow up with a can of petrol and rightly torch the remains.
Low and behold the normal animals and wildlife inherit the garden now that the scabby greedy dog is gone.
A new family sees how beautiful the garden looks and decides to build a nice new home.
The new neighbors get on well and there's much rejoicing.
The inevitable crumbling of Argentina is a positive and much celebrated event for the world. We will see which nations go your way.

Just a little lesson on how things go. When you are earning the sort of money you do and I earnt a lot more than you, you build your capital up as well as paying for your pension.
When you retire and you are a capitalist like I am, you invest all your capital and live of the revenue and your pensions.
You NEVER risk your capital.

That is indeed a possibility with the Chinese, we don't know.
But we do know it's a fact with USA...
TMBOA has already tried to tempt the Chinese to invest in Argentina, but they would rather wait until the country collapses, so they can pick it up on the cheap.
Feb 03rd, 2014 - 02:02 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The Argentine population will be far more pliable when they are reliant on food handouts from their Chinese masters.
Of course this also means frequent visits by the Chinese Navy to Argentine ports, just to ensure that the Argentines don't try to pull a fast one like they did with Repsol.
More than likely, any Chinese investment will be guarded by the Chinese Army, making sure that the oil goes where it is supposed to and is not syphoned off from any pipeline. Before long, they will probably be reporting a pipeline explosion, as they frequently have in Nigeria.
When Argentina collapses, the other CELAC nations will stand around and watch with some satisfaction that the arrogant Argentines are suffering.
Only Uruguay and Brazil will offer any help, but it will be to try and keep the Argentines from emigrating to them.
In the meantime, the Falkland Islanders will sit back and watch, safe in the knowledge that not only are they protected, but that they will enjoy a rosy future full of prosperity and peace.
And all of the sudden, you wake up...

If only that were so! The numbers of residency seekers is growing in Uruguay, year on year. And guess who make up the larget pool of applicants by an order of magnitude: Argentines.
Hopefully, these will be the ones with lots of dollars and a brain in their head, we most certainly do not need dim-witted twats that have never finished their schooling because we have enough of those already.
You will know them as Tupamaros and many of them are in government or stuffed by their mate Pepe into jobs for the boys and girls at the taxpayers’ expense.
You're so right about the ones with a brain leaving the country. They know what's coming and they don't want to be there when it does. Scenes reminiscent of Somalia will happen in Buenos Aires with stick thin Argentines pleading for a crust of bread and a bowl of soup.

You have to wonder if someone in the military is already in contact with his counterparts across the border to organise some form of Coup to save Argentina before it is too late.
Worst of all, it'll cost Uruguay and Brazil a great deal of money to prevent an exodus. You might even have to open refugee camps.
Not all the people in Uruguay agree with Argentina about the Falklands. Many want to trade with the Falklands and are being prevented from doing so by their own politicians. Let's hope that when TMBOA is finally gone, that the people in Montevideo have a sudden epiphany and open up relations with the Falkland Islanders.

While listening to UK music, with a US film in the background, drinking Australian wine (albeit they cannot afford it now) harping on about how they hate the Anglosphere...... not even mentioning Canada, New Zealand, the Falkland Islands and others (apologies to my fellows of these great nations)

It seems that the people in charge of the economy have no more understanding of economics than a schoolchild.
They think that they can control internal prices by increasing imports, but forget that after a megadevaluation it won't be possible to import goods which cost far more than those available locally.
Farmers will have to take advantage of increased prices in order to obtain the goods they need from abroad, or all agricultural production will grind to a halt due to lack of spares.
In the meantime, people in the city won't be able to afford the basics, even at controlled prices, because there won't be any 'controlled' goods in the stores any more. They'll only be available on the black market at exorbitant prices.
The end is nigh for CFK and her bunch of criminals.
Devalued, worthless currency...imports will be too expensive...depend on domestic production to fill the gaps ? not likely, companies closing down, industry struggling along....some exports could work, provided costs don't follow inflation- unlikely....send a few cars to Brazil, agricultural products...what else ? “Havanna's dulce de leche” and “alfajores” would be good........

UPDATE 1-Premier Oil's chief executive resigns, shares jump
Feb 05th, 2014 - 09:49 am - Link - Report abuse 0Feb 4 (Reuters) - The chief executive of Britain's Premier Oil, Simon Lockett, will step down after nine years in the role, the company said on Tuesday, sending its shares up 9 percent.
The move comes at a time when the FTSE 250 oil company, with assets in the UK, Vietnam, Indonesia and Pakistan, has been stung by successive downgrades to production guidance in 2013 as well as disappointing forecasts for this year.
Premier's share price had lost 33 percent since last May before the announcement, with some investors calling for Lockett's resignation.
”(This) has been called for by a number of activist investors,“ Sanjeev Bahl, analyst at Numis, wrote in a note to clients, adding that investors often believe a change of CEO can help re-rate the stock.
Premier currently trades at a price to earnings ratio of 7.46, well below peers at 14.75, according to Thomson Reuters data.
Lockett also attracted criticism for Premier's management of its Sea Lion project in waters around the Falkland Islands, the operation of which it took from junior partner Rockhopper Exploration just over a year ago. The launch of production recently slipped to 2019 from late 2018.
”I think that him (Lockett) moving on allows someone else to come in and do things slightly differently because fundamentally Premier's assets are worth more than the share price,“ Nathan Piper, analyst at RBC, said.
Lockett, who joined Premier in January 1994 from Shell , will remain as CEO until a replacement has been found, and will also take part in the selection process, the company said. Lockett said in the statement he was ”looking forward to pursuing new business opportunities.”
During Lockett's leadership, Premier's share price has risen more than 140 percent, outperforming the FTSE 250 of midcap shares, while average production has jumped 56 percent, the company said.
