What a cunning plan! nicking the Falklands One Piece At A Time
Mar 02nd, 2016 - 07:16 am - Link - Report abuse 0One day I devised myself a plan
That should be the envy of most any man
I'd sneak it out of there in a lunchbox in my hand
Now, I never considered myself a thief
Kelpers wouldn't miss just one little piece
Especially if I strung it out over several years
I got it one piece at a time
And it didn't cost me a dime
Sorry to the late Johnny Cash
I hope the pebbles had A gift from the Falklands written on them.
Mar 02nd, 2016 - 07:34 am - Link - Report abuse 0Closest they'll get to it I suppose.
Mar 02nd, 2016 - 08:22 am - Link - Report abuse 0It od course would not have occurred to dumbo Bertone nor the old dithery vaticans that a basic EU Phystosanitary Biosecurity Law has been broken by the importation of soil from a country outside the EU without certification etc!
Mar 02nd, 2016 - 09:27 am - Link - Report abuse 0Pathetic is indeed the word!
Little by little Argentina is getting the FALKLANDS back, but I fear it will take millions of years before ALL the landmass is in Argentina. LOL
Mar 02nd, 2016 - 09:54 am - Link - Report abuse 0Do hope that El Papa knows about that usurpation and all of those UN resolutions. Of course he does.

The malvinas in argentina is the same as fox hunting in the UK majority of people dont really care or think its important one way or the other.

Mar 02nd, 2016 - 12:16 pm - Link - Report abuse 0So you know sweet FA about the English country people as well as 'foxhunting' then?
So this business of the argentines being a pack of thieves from first to last is true? Stealing turf and pebbles as well as the little tablets in the public toilets they think are throat lozenges. Someone in Stanley is probably missing some spoons as well.
Mar 02nd, 2016 - 01:25 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Falklands soil and pebbles
Mar 02nd, 2016 - 02:06 pm - Link - Report abuse 0What a bloody insult,
how much more crawling can one do to a corrupt regime,
what do these twats think he is going to do with these pebbles and soil,
and how did these thieves get this soil and pebbles,
why is not the Falkland's government issuing a warrant for their arrest,
and demanding the thieving pope return the stolen goods,
is it not a criminal offence to receive stolen goods,
an arrest warrant should be issued again the pope,
but will anyone , anywhere do anything,
I think not,
still, it was worth the moan.
This is the answer to the dispute then-negotiations can begin on how much soil the Islanders can send to Argentina to shut them up over the claim.
Mar 02nd, 2016 - 02:35 pm - Link - Report abuse 0A Holy Cause?

Mar 02nd, 2016 - 09:39 pm - Link - Report abuse 0much like Argentina should be concentrating or making argentina a good place to live rather than trying to enforce its will on islands that don't belong to it and never will.
I always find it amazing that Argentineans that post here seem to look upon the UK's constitutional monarchy with derision, and yet seem intent on sticking their tongues as far up the bottom as possible of that absolute monarch, the pope.
Mar 02nd, 2016 - 11:33 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Their fawning over him is so sickening that I'm surprised they have not tried to gift him child pornography.

Mar 02nd, 2016 - 11:52 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Oh aint that THE truth! :-)
Falklands soil and pebbles - that means theft of Falkland Islands governmental property.
Mar 03rd, 2016 - 02:10 am - Link - Report abuse 0Issue an international arrest warrant on the Argentine governor as a thief and on the pope as a fence.
@ 10 Marti Llazo: Someone in Stanley is probably missing some spoons as well.

@22 - and they ought to count their fingers if they shook hands with an arg governor.

Soil and pebbles from the Falkland Islands....
Mar 03rd, 2016 - 06:50 am - Link - Report abuse 0I wonder how the Pope felt about receiving stolen property?
God these Malvinas Muppets are so pathetic!
Its pretty sad that they have to steal from a Country that is not theirs to give to the Pope....still as many have said before on above comments, the Pope is most likely used to receiving stolen goods..........

Has the argentine government lodged a claim on this soil and pebbles that is now in Italy, as argentine soil,
Mar 03rd, 2016 - 08:27 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Perhaps someone should send the Pope some Argentinean sh*t to go with their false claims.

1. Argentines are Italians who speak Spanish [sort of] and think of themselves as French. (attributed to Octavio Paz)
2. Argentines are Italians who speak Spanish [sort of] , expect North American salaries and want to live like Englishmen; like to give speeches like French communists but vote like the Sengalese; blather like leftists but live like the bourgeoisie; praise Canadian entrepreneurship but organise like drunken Bolivians; admire the orderliness of the Swiss but work like a Chinese fire-drill. ....

Mar 04th, 2016 - 12:04 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Really !
Nutters have been saying that for the last 5 years or so.
Yet it is over 33 years since Argentina briefly controlled the Falkland Islands, against the will of the people living their peacefully.
At what point will you realise the Falklands are not yours, never have been and never will be.
That´s so clever !!!
Mar 04th, 2016 - 12:40 pm - Link - Report abuse 0My dad traveled to Europe in the late 70s, spent some weeks in London, and brought back an British-made umbrella that he purchased, which has remained under our undisputed custody since then.
By following malvinist´s logic ... I am entitled to a part of London !!!!
Get ready, UK, I a taking this to court :o)
The stolen rocks will be returned to the Falklands within 25 years.

Mar 04th, 2016 - 07:52 pm - Link - Report abuse 0he only knows a few words,
and neither is true.
I wouldn't be surprised if the pebbles and soil aren't really from the islands but are actually from Tierra del Fuego itself. How would the Pope know the difference?
Mar 05th, 2016 - 04:02 am - Link - Report abuse 0It is unlikely that either Bertone or any Argentine is aware that the Falklands are a mini tectonic plate that broke away from an area near Port Elizabeth in South Africa and geologically have nothing to do with Patagonia.
Mar 05th, 2016 - 04:37 am - Link - Report abuse 0Argentina territorial expansion knows no bounds.
Mar 05th, 2016 - 10:57 am - Link - Report abuse 0Actually those items didn't come from the Falklands at all but instead from the sewer outfall near Puerto Madryn, and they are not pebbles.
Mar 05th, 2016 - 01:14 pm - Link - Report abuse 0It seems the RCCunts just cannot tell the truth, even when they KNEW what was going on:

I think it is time for the whole sorry lot of The Holy Fathers of this despicable so called Christian Faith to be castrated: they have proven they cannot control their urges.

The withdrawal symptoms from CFK must test his 'faith' quite badly now.
