Falkland Islanders must be addressed ”as Argentines or foreigners living in (mainland) Argentina”
The Falkland Islands and Falkland Islanders must be addressed as if they were Argentines or foreigners living in mainland Argentina, which means a more “normal relation” with the Islands including extending healthcare services, education and even greater air connectivity, according to the latest column from Martin Dinatale, editor in chief of La Nacion who in a previous piece revealed the “humanitarian approach” the government of Mauricio Macri has in mind on the Falklands/Malvinas dispute.

May 26th, 2016 - 10:35 am - Link - Report abuse 0There are lots of strange, odd and downright weird statements in the above but
“what is out of the question are airlinks from Brazil or Uruguay, because this is exclusive responsibility of Argentina”.
makes no sense at all. If a Uruguayan or Brazilian (or Belorussian for that matter) airline decides to establish a route to the FI what's it got to do with Argentina?
I'd love to know what a 'sanitary emergency' is - does it mean that Argentina is going to send an army of plumbers just in case a drain gets blocked. Perhaps I'm being unkind and something is being lost in translation.
@2 Spot on - they just don't get it.
I can see the Falklands not having an air link with Uruguay. Uruguay no longer has an airline of its own, does it? But then, perhaps Brazil would like to set up a link, stopping in Uruguay. And what would argieland do about it? Go up and shoot the aircraft down? With what? We haven't seen how Temer will operate yet.

I have no wish to have any links with a country that lets its people come here and annoy Falkland islanders by draping their flag all over war memorials etc. Closer links would only allow more of that kind of idiot into the Islands.

Last week|:
Draped an Arg Flag with slogan over a Memorial to the civilian crew of the SS Atlantic Conveyor - who lost their lives in i982.
Stopped their hire vehicles- wound down the windows- and shouted verbal nationalistic abuse at 2 not so young Falklands ladies out peacefully walking on a Sunday -causing them considerable personal upset and shock.
So Macri and his dumbarsed Foreign Minister need to learn to think again.
And issue some public apoligies to us for a start.
And before anyone points it out- we have been told by our English Attorney General that we would be breaking EU Human Rights Laws if we refused to hire vehicles to visiting Argentines! Same if they wander about the place in their old military uniforms apparently - some of us are wondering which side of the South Atlantic this person actually prefers.

The reality is that Argentina is just trying to cosy up with UK to buy influence & borrow money to prop up their wrecked economy whilst simoultaneously treating the Falklanders like lepers. When will they realise Argentina offers absolutely nothing to either the UK or the Falklands that we cannot get elsewhere.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! I needed a good belly laugh after a hard day.

What a great quote to sum up their inept government...
“Finally, the story in the Buenos Aires Herald, “Gov't presents new map after UN approved expansion of maritime space limits”, makes it absolutely clear that COPLA and the Argentine Foreign Ministry were presenting a mistaken account of the Commission’s recommendation. The Herald included the following map beside its story, without any hint that the shelf around the islands and in Antarctica had not been endorsed”
Have a good weekend everyone and especially you Malvanistas, happy reading....
Briton 23 - pretty sure it was in writing last year to one company. He frequently refers to the Human Rights and Freedom of Speech that visitors are entitled to.
May 27th, 2016 - 09:54 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Thus the minority(as most are normal respectful) of trouble seeking Argentine visitors are free to wave Argentine flags in our faces,fly them over and leave them on top of dedicated British memorials to British dead, scrawl graffiti in war cemetery visitor books , shout “Malvinas Argentinas” in our faces - and we have to just take it - as they have their Human Rights and Freedoms.
Each and every time Islanders have felt stressed-insulted-hassled- upset-etc - and have made a statement to the Police - the Attorney General has caused the charges to be dropped.
Consequently many here now feel - waste of time going to the Police even though that is what the Att General tells us to do! Probably some of our Police are getting a bit fed up also with taking statements where they feel there is a case - and then having it all thrown back at them.
You can even come to the Islands and TWICE attempt to smuggle ammunition found on a battlefield back onto the plane when you leave - and not be arrested nor even told you will not be allowed back into the Islands!
Luckily our airport security spotted it each time on the scanner so bullets were removed - but those concerned do not even get a formal Police caution or warning - just “there,s a naughty boy - now have a good flight!”
Try that at Heathrow or JFK and see where you end up!!

” Argentina’s statistics agency, the INDEC, will next month publish revised gross domestic product data as a part of an overhaul of official figures produced under the reign of Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, the former president, which are widely perceived as cooked.
“We are less rich than the former administration tried to show,” says Ariel Coremberg, director of the project, known as Arklems+Land, and an adviser to the new government of president Mauricio Macri. “Since 2007, official economic statistics in Argentina, particularly on consumer inflation and GDP, have been subject to political manipulation.”
“ This would be enough to send the country spiralling from 56th in the global rankings to 78th, placing it below the countries mentioned above as well as the likes of Suriname, St Lucia and Grenada and the global average GDP per head of $10,739.”

May 28th, 2016 - 10:41 am - Link - Report abuse 0Whoever claimed that the FIG were in breach of someone's imagined Human Rights should have asked a simple question:
“Are the vehicle hire companies owned and operated by the FIG?”
If the answer is yes and the argie holds a European license for the class of vehicle they wish to hire then there might just be a glimmer of a chance for a claim to be made. Applicants not possessing an EU License can be refused on safety grounds.
If however the said companies are NOT owned by the FIG but operate under normal commercial law and arrangements under the Companies Act(s) then no breach has been endured (by the said argie).
Companies so formed are free to exclude anyone they like, especially if they consider a breech of the FIG law is likely such as the inability to pass a FIG driving test.
I tell you now that the argies we see here on the holiday coast of Uruguay are even worse than the locals. Yes, they can blast along the straight but watch them try to negotiate curves or heaven forbid bends and it is pitiful to behold.
Presumably these cretins hold an argie license, but who knows? More importantly if the FIG do not recognize 'parity' with their own standards (they have not been recognized in a legal manner) then they SHOULD be refused otherwise the Islanders are put under increased risk of harm.

May 28th, 2016 - 11:43 am - Link - Report abuse 0If the Argentines are not EU citizens can your attorney general find something to stop the hiring of vehicles? And are the EU going to really complain if a hire company say 'We refused to hire out because the prospective clients were abusive, had the wrong driving license etc'
How do the Argies prove they weren't abusive?
Your attorney general needs to grow a pair and remember who he works for and use all Falkland/EU law available, accordingly.

The Falkland Islanders are very resourceful people who I am sure are quite capable of sorting this out. I am not qualified or sufficiently knowledgeable to tell them precisely how. I understand that crime on the Islands is very low and therefore it follows that associated costs would also be low. The need for incarceration capability is only likely to grow as Tourism increases and if you can build more hotels why not a prison assuming that one does not already exist.

You should perhaps Google what it costs the UK to keep a prisoner for a week...
Then perhaps divide that cost by a 60 odd million population...
Or divide it by a population of a couple of thousand...
Then...the logic of my post becomes.....
“Self evident”....
In reality, the crime rate in the Islands is near zero - most people don't bother to lock their houses, and many even leave their keys in the car. Occasionally there's someone who's drunk a bit too much and gets to spend the night in Stanley's jail. The police do not carry weapons.

Jun 01st, 2016 - 02:14 am - Link - Report abuse 0There is no logic in your posts, Voz, only blather and boludeces.
The Islands are British and are going to remain that way. Just get over it.

But speaking of crime, this little graphic tells the story on “frequency of assaults in your neighbourhood.” I think we can see where we have a clear winner.

Jun 01st, 2016 - 11:15 am - Link - Report abuse 0Any idea why Haiti is so low in the chart? I always got the impression it was kind of a hellhole.
As someone who was here in 1982 I find the continuing diatribe from Argentina disappointing and tiring in the extreme. They are still the masters of tactical stupidity! Long may we have nothing to do with them.

Of course. Because even people of average intelligence can read that the chart deals with “the Americas” and reasonable folk don't include the UK with “the Americas.”
Similarly reasonable folk can look at the chart to see that the highest incidence of reports of such crime is rather unsurprisingly found for..... Argentistan!! And the topic at hand is the criminal misbehaviour of the argentos, bringing their inveterate criminal tendencies when visiting the Falkland Islands, in contrast to the very low rates of even petty crime otherwise seen in the Islands. Even the chilenos tend to behave when in the Islands.
And Voice has splendidly offered us yet another opportunity to reflect upon why one does not invite argentos to places where responsible, respectful, law-abiding, civil behaviour is desirable. Why any nation would permit visits by argentos, let alone immigration, is beyond all comprehension.
I have the solution, punish the visiting Argentines committing crimes by sending tbem to Dunoon! Just think of it..

Factually inaccurate. For the past week we have had beautiful sunny and warm weather. I was at Benmore gardens last Sunday and can confirm this. Whereas the bulk of England has been somewhat damp.
The other points you make are your opinion and not facts. They may or may not be true.
If the Argentines offer the Falklanders healthcare services, then run for your lives. Hospitals in Argentina are staffed by good, to some extent excellent, doctors, but the dirt, the lack of means to repair equipment, the lack of money that forces them to wash and re-use bandages, etc., etc. makes it crucial to have a great health to survive hospitalization in Argentina.
Jun 01st, 2016 - 10:01 pm - Link - Report abuse 0What do I know about the subject?
My daughter is a doctor, who worked in Argentine public hospitals for nearly 3 years. What she observed was shocking, worse than what you in general would expect from a third world country.

You tell me @72...and I quote...“But speaking of crime, this little graphic tells the story on “frequency of assaults in your neighbourhood.”
@72...I say MY neighbourhood isn't mentioned...
and you reply @76..”Of course. Because even people of average intelligence can read that the chart deals with “the Americas” and reasonable folk don't include the UK with “the Americas.”
....WTF are you on...whatever is is...come off it....
Explain how a chart of the Americas tells a story of frequency of assaults in my neighbourhood.”
jeez....
