    @2 British is always better

    The superiority complex of the two Inglatistan's above is laughable. You two exceed your reputations.

    Just from a logistics standpoint what's the rationale for having a 2 month gap between Governors? Couldn't they have just kept Mr. Haywood on till the new guy got there? Just seems silly to send the interim guy down there for a few months when he already has a new post waiting for him several thousand miles away.....

    @3 Nostrils

    Wow you just get worse. I didn't know it was possible for adults to actually regress and become dumber...... but you have proven me wrong.

    Let me translate for your Argentinean brainwashed intellect:

    @1 He is British that's all that matters
    =
    THE NEW ACTING GOVERNOR is British AND NOT A MILITARILY APPOINTED FOREIGN ONE and that's all that matters.

    @2 British is always better
    =
    A British GOVERNOR is always better THAN A MILITARILY APPOINTED FOREIGN ONE.

    So where is this superiority complex?

    Or am I wrong?

    Would you prefer an Argentinean as your president or someone imposed by a foreign country?

    Why bother I guess..... you won't be back after you read this.

    Good man John Duncan. He spent some years of his working career trying to help sort out the tragic landmine mess that Argentina left in our beautiful Islands. He will be welcome.

    @3 Congratulations. I've already reported your comment. Thanks for proving you are backward!
    @1, 2, 4-8 Please note that the dumbasses are getting more desperate. Cogent debate disappeared about a year ago. Nostrils, TiT, lloяTзigяA couldn't be cogent if it died trying. There's a thought, TiT. Die trying!
