I see a fantastic business opportunity for some entrepreneur in the FALKLANDS to sell safety equipment to the boat owners that fall short of the safety requirements.

The UK will hand back the Illex squid in 25 years... (they might be a bit whiffy by then though!)

2HJC - You are out of date! The Ilex do not belong to the UK - never have.

The Fisheries Zone and resources belong to the Falkland Islands and the people who live here.
