Arias also mentioned that there is a project to build a specific neighborhood with housing for Malvinas Veterans, their families and descendants, “an objective we have talked extensively about, and as the mayor announced we will be addressing financing with the federal government; it is a pledge we are determined to make it a reality”, said Arias.

So, the people pursing this “noble” cause are not noble, but rather a bunch of delusional, lying, thieving rats.
No wonder the Falkland Islanders don't want to be associated with these ignoble lunatics.
So, we have a federal, provincial and now city Malvinas Islands Secretariat.
Mar 22nd, 2022 - 03:49 pm +4This is rapidly becoming a national industry, never mind cause.
An industry which no doubt costs a lot but produces nothing and indeed has no discernible effect whatsoever, on anything.
Well, if it makes them feel better then I suppose its money well spent.
Awww, this is wonderful! I do wish people like Bill Carmona, Alicia Castro, Danny Filmus, Gus Mellela and now this guy would get their fingers out and pay us a visit! They continually bang on about us but they never visit or canvass our opinion. They don't even reply to emails or on Twitter. They say they're our “governors” etc, but they don't actually do anything more than blow hot air out of their asses and create “initiatives”. Even if they just went to the ICJ it would be something of value.
