But you are not comparing like with like keesje, when you make comparisons with the Dutch Antilles.

In the Falklands, the actual numbers are so small. Total population is less than 3 000, compared with 300 000+ for Dutch Antilles, and the electorate there is only about 1 500.

Moreover, about half the population - and so presumably half the electorate - live in one "city" (well, it's got a cathedral!): Xxxx Stanley.

Nothing dodgy at all mate .......
