I have spent a total of 31 months on the islands, including a 23 month accompanied tour with the family. We still have many good friends there. Stuff the oil, it is about British people who wish to remain so and are more patriotic than the Pearly King.
I would far rather we put all necessary resources into protecting them than propping up that corrupt b*stard in Kabul.
However, the islanders are predominantly white, loyal to the Crown and hard working. Everything Labour and 'Dave' hate.
Look on the bright side though, if they do find oil the Americans will invade.......
