NutLoose, on a 92% turnout of registered voters, with 98.8% of those voting to remain British, does not mean that "98.8% Falkland Islanders vote to stay British".
... oh golly gosh! That means a mere 90.896% actually voted to stay.

For comparison, what proportion of our electorate voted for any of our politicians!
