Visiting members of the Falklands All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) reminded Falkland Islanders that they had huge champions in the UK Government and Royal Family during a recent press conference. However Tory James Sunderland MP admitted that “the level of knowledge amongst most MPs about the Overseas Territories is quite limited,” but this does nothing to affect the support for the Islands.
Baroness Gloria Hooper, Honorary President of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Latin America and a member of the House of Lords, visited Argentina from 8-12 December. The main purpose of the visit was to lead the UK delegation attending Alberto Fernández’s inauguration ceremony.
