    ”...Lord Lucius Falkland, MP and descendent of Anthony Cary, 5th Viscount Falkland. The British named the Malvinas Islands (Falklands) after him”

    Erm.... no.

    They didn't name the Malvinas Islands after him. They named the FALKLAND Islands after him.

    He's not the 5th Viscount Malvinas.

    Whilst we pamper and appease these abusers of British islanders anti rights and freedom,

    They just insult us and take the pixx,

    Apparently the government considers it no more that politics.

    And we wonder why ??
