OK, here we go again . . .

Right, as I've said SOo many times before.

Give every Falkland Islander a million quid and a Spanish dictionary. Then listen to the deafening silence.

We'd save a fortune, improve relations, stop stretching our resources beyond breaking point and so on.

. . . then someone mentioned oil.

If the USA are not going to support us (and it looks like they won't), Sandy Woodward has got it right, we're stuffed.

Save a few billion and perhaps Lyneham could stay open (if they haven't sold the land for development yet).
