    It appears that UN Decolonization Committee C24 by including The Falklands under their purview is an excess of jurisdiction and thus ultra vires. Since the their referendum has clearly for filled the requirements of “UN Charter for decolonization Chapter XI, Declaration Regarding Non-Self-Governing Territories, Article 76,b. ..to promote the political, economic, social, and educational advancement of the inhabitants of the trust territories, and their progressive development towards self-government or independence as may be appropriate to the particular circumstances of each territory and its peoples and the freely expressed wishes of the peoples concerned.”
    “Remaining non-self-governing territories must have full freedom of choice, Ban says.” http://www.un.org/apps/news/story.asp?NewsID=34740#.Vs8VRenW_eG
    So get the hell out of the way and stop perpetuating this deliberate fraud, as its done deal.
