  • Malvinense 1833

    The Malvinas were never British, according to their own legislation a territory becomes British when it joins the crown.
    The Malvinas were incorporated into the British crown on June 23, 1843, more than 10 years after the usurpation. Queen Victoria signs a Letter Patent incorporating the islands and empowers the colony to elect its Legislative Council. A month later the Executive was formed, headed by William Henry Moore.
    That same year, Richard Moody is also appointed as governor.
    The 1850 treaty put an end to a new British invasion of the Río de la Plata, it is absurd that Argentina's resignation to the islands requires the approval of the Uruguayan President.
    Pascoe's lying saga continues...

    Cut the BS troll, that is all you ever do is repeat the same nonsense over and over, everything you have ever claimed has been debunked time and time again, If you really believe the rubbish you come out with, then collect all your evidence jump on the next plane and present it to the ICJ, otherwise quit whining , because it achieves NOTHING, just constantly repeating yourself like a trained parrot is childish to say the least and very very, tedious,

    Supreme work that confines the Malvinas myth and its indoctrinated following to the scrapheap.

    Great work. Well done Graham!

    Malv
    ‘1840: The British approve the formation of a colony on the islands.’

    Before which it was British Crown Territory, which the Spanish had to accept as seen in the Anglo Spanish agreement of 1771.

    ‘At the start of the volume, Argentina had just signed the Convention of Peace in 1850 and accepted British ownership of the Islands.’

    Maybe you should read the book and see what supporting evidence there is, like the 1850 agreement itself.

    Instead of just repeating the same old propaganda which has been rebutted here many times already.

    If this ever gets to a court, it will be the evidence that counts, not the unsubstantiated propaganda.

    Has anyone noticed that in a lot of 1833 posts that some of his wording is very very similar to that of another Argentine poster who is trolling daily,, every now and again his guard slips,

    Marv, a Crown possession from 1765. A colony is something else.
