Stuff - ok, I stand corrected on the vote. However I should be very much surprised if having seen Corbyn's dismal performance as leader since taking over, a large numbers of those members who voted for him will be regretting their actions and seeking to do something about it as soon as they can.

At the time of the war it amazed me that those on the left were willing to see The Falklands fall into the hands of what was at the time an extreme right wing dictatorship rather than support the war for its liberation. Argentina is currently a democratic republic with a left-leaning president, but the country can hardly be called stable, given the economic problems throughout the region, so does Corbyn really want to risk giving it a say in the running of The Falklands when Argentina could quite conceivably revert to some extreme form of government should one of its periodic economic collapses reoccur?
