    Oh absolutely the whole world supports Argentina, as long as it's Argentina that's asking any and every one who doesn't run away fast enough, and as long as it doesn't actually cost them anything (even to the extent of having to accept a lesser bid on the blocks that Premier bid on).

    So much for Argentina's vaunted Latin American solidarity.

    “Falklands' Premier secures two blocks in Mexico's oil industry privatization”

    Sierra Oil and gas was the winner of that insignificant 1° Fase Ronda 1.
    and premier is just an insignificant partner of sierra oil and gas.

    When are you travelling to the Falklands Pauly? You said you would be here in a couple of months..... about five months ago. Are you waiting on orders and funding from your Peronist masters?

    @ 4 paulcedron II
    Read the article Paulito, its 10% with an option to increase up to 25%.

    In the only two blocks sold.

    This was not an oversubscribed auction, it was a flop.

    The big American players stayed away.

    Seems like only companies like Premier are prepared to drill exploration, in that part of the world.

    So, when is Argentina going to issue extradition/seizure claims against oil execs & equipment in Mexico?

    Before or after you ask them if they want to bid for blocks off Argentina?

    genetic aberration
    not too bright??
    lol
    so the genetic aberration is calling me not too bright, eh??

    and what consortium are you talking about, abbie?
    it is 1 big MEXICAN company + 1 american minority partner +... a bunch of tiny little insignificant english servants.

    With the Big Mex company now taking orders from the small British ones, that must make them cipayos, eh.

    Guess Mexico won’t be arresting people or seizing equipment anytime soon then!

    Argentina nomates it is!

    So, are your Argy police going to Mexico to arrest the Premier employees and bring them back in chains to Argentina then?

    This year?

    Within the next 5 years?

    Within 25 years?

    as a psychonaut of the unconscious, i know YOU, isolda, a lot better than yourself.
    and i can assure that you are obsessed with me.
    even more, that you love me big time.
    which is understandable.

    now, shut it.

    “Premier Oil, with strong involvement in the development of the Falkland Islands' oil and gas industry is among the winners in the first round of Mexico’s oil and gas privatization.”

    But what about all that fuss about when an Argentine magistrate issued assets seizure orders against oil companies operating in the Falklands?

    Like everything that comes out of Argentina, much ado about nothing.

    “they will be working as 3rd class employees of sierra oil in...mexico.

    That's good to hear that you won't be wasting your time.

    Is the threat by that idiot Argentine magistrate against Premier Oil in the Falklands not going to be inacted then?

    I am disappointed. I can't wait for your countrymen to send their rust buckets to the oil rigs and get to see the bottom of the South Atlantic after they get their asses kicked by the gringos.

    I can't wait to see you sail to the Falklands, get impounded in Stanley Harbour, and await the arrival of Mr Singer to impound your ships.

    Sending the Liberturd are you? At least being a sailing ship that would fit in with the other shipwrecks in Stanley harbour.

    “as a psychonaut of the unconscious”

    You don't even know your own subconscious, never mind anybody else's as your brain has been fried by that CT scanner.

    Give yourself a break amigo, don't go under the scanner today, save what little you have left.

    And it isn't turning you into Joe 90, amigo.

    “now, shut it.”

    How stupid is that going to sound when Isolde posts again, proving your 'demands' like Argentina's, are as effective as a weak fart in a hurricane?

    Poor little Paulie.
    He just cannot understand basic facts - never mind if it is 2%-20%-50% - or whatever% - the BASIC FACT is that first Brazil and now Mexico have “broken ranks” with the fantasy that Argentina believes in.
    Who will be next?

    We could request an 'upgrade' for you...

    You have a choice of Sr. Nostrils, too OCD to leave the house, or the drooling half-wit Marcos, barely self-aware, misses everything, understands nothing, and amuses himself by blowing snot bubbles out his nose.

    I suppose anything is an improvement over Polly Cee-Drone...

    @24 Troy,
    “snot bubbles”- l laughed at that one.
    The kids loved it too-filthy little microbes.
    Anything to do with noses or farts have kids full attentions.
    Think was an untrustworthy, lying slime-bag, but at least he wasn't childish like paulcedron.
    His new avatar, Voice, can be sometimes childish, but nowhere near as stupid as pc.

    @18 Hello Paul, you OK?

    Quick! Someone call International Rescue!

    Paul appears to be stuck in his CT scanner. There's been no self egotistical or abusive replies for ages.
