    “ only £5000! So embarrassing that it should never have been published.”

    Pytangua -
    If you consider the size of the Falkland Islands population, this is the equivalent of, for instance, Argentina donating 65 million pounds, or the USA donating around 500 million.

    1) *Shameless cheapest possible propaganda and brainwash stunt to make them Kelpers feel good...:
    - If you consider the size of the Malvinas/Falklands population..., £500 is the equivalent of, for instance, Argentina donating 6,5 million pounds, or the USA donating around 50 million.
    *(They didn't have the Chuzpah...:-)

    2) *Not worth mentioning propaganda and brainwash to make them Kelpers feel good...:
    - If you consider the size of the Malvinas/Falklandspopulation, £5,000 is the equivalent of, for instance, Argentina donating 65 million pounds, or the USA donating around 500 million.
    * (Their actual publicized “donation”...)
