Just an email away !!!
At a cost of almost a thousand lives...
For a territory that thatcher was negotiating to hand back to Argentina...
So what's the difference between what she did in negotiating, and what you claim Labour might do according to you?
Do you have any proof that Labour is doing what you claim?
Or is it as is more likely simply a clueless attempt to smear the current government
Thing is, this country ain't what it used to be. Our military is EXTREMELY underpowered in all areas.....

Wars involve killing
this is untrue
google Chagos Islands and also read up on the deal you've talked about and the conditions.So what's the difference between what she did in negotiating, and what you claim Labour might do according to you?

So what bit of fog is now going to descend to cover up your lies?
But hey you carry on in your usual vein if it amuses you...
It certainly amuses those who wish to learn from history watch you tangle yourself up yet again

You cannot provide any evidence that the government was intending to give the islands away without the consent of the people living there. It’s that simple.So what bit of fog is now going to descend to cover up your lies?

I bet the junta are already planning how to spend the several billion of UK taxpayers' hard earned they'll be given as well as the islands.
There must be enough one legged Argentinians hobbling around to remind them why it would be a bad idea.
I've seen a few Argentine documentaries on TV, they look upon the war as a dark time in their history, I can't see that they would want to repeat the exercise.

As did France, so?
No, they supplied weapons before the war started, but blocked all supplies after the invasion, in support of the British government.
