Squid ( Illex Falklandus ) are doing very nicely thank you, that is because they have not been overfished.

@1. It's much simpler than that. In argie waters, fishermen throw out nets and haul the squid aboard. In Falklands waters, fishermen display waterproof notices explaining how much more fulfilling squid life can be. Every squid is special. Therefore squid avoid argieland. Like everyone else.

We must not forget that TMBOA, in order to 'do-down' the 'squatters' encouraged the pathetic argie fleet to take all the fish and squid they could.

Stupid cow as usual overlooked the effect on her own people, or did she not GAF?

I think we all know the answer to that one.
