  2. @El Mazorquero The only opinion that matters is that of the people who live on the Falklands. Once Argentina stop using the dispute as a political ploy for the whipping up nationalism in Argentina, then maybe your country can move on?

  3. It proves Argentina can't win any.

  4. Indeed, I read that the Argentine pilots dropped bombs on shipping at such a low height they did not have time to arm.

  5. The Cents is for the USA audience it was aimed at.

  6.  @christophercook723  It makes perfect sense . The film was made for the USA audience to be shown there re: life in Britain.

  7. Not with the HMS Queen Elizabeth and HMS Prince of Wales in service they won't.

  8.  @ivangruer5326  Why are you going on about something from 200 YEARS AGO It is irrelevant, it is what the islanders NOW want to do that matters.

  9.  @ivangruer5326  What you think is irrelevant, it is was the islanders want that matters. You sound like a dictator and obviously not interested in democracy.

  10. Conscripts don't fight well!

  11. If you think Argentina was weak at that time, then you seriously need history lessons.

  12.  @derekjohnston1183  I have, you made it quite clear what you thought of the current "entitled" generation and their aspirations to have more than bread and water for dinner while the upper class continue to eat steak.

  13. @Lana Tan Argentina makes claims over Antarctica, oooooohps sorry not meant to say that.

  14. Lewis, the British had no choice but to ration, it had to keep inflation down due to massive debt. It is nothing to do with "socialism".

  15. The Pucara was a very capable and dangerous ground support aircraft. You clearly know nothing about it and how much of a concern it was to British forces.

  16. It's for a USA audience.

  17. There should be an equivalent to Godwin's law for people like you.

  18.  @jeanmatthews3899  They were included in rationing but had the money to buy coupons and rations from the poor so were not affected by it. As usual the poor were the ones that suffered.

  19.  @howegav  Yeah me too, I haven't been since the American hanger was built! It's a bit of a trek from where I live though.

  20.  @М62  Whatever system of government is in place in whatever country, the one thing I am sure we can agree on is that they don't care about the people and will invent a crisis to divert attention from their failings. The UK is no different. The Falklands conflict resulted in an unpopular Prime Minister being re-elected.

  21. @john margetts The Islanders determine who they wish to be governed by. You do agree that it should be a democratic process, yes?

  22.  @ivangruer5326  What?

  23.  @Citadin  China has no appetite to get involved when Britain is a trading partner!

  24.  @Citadin  China has ZERO intention of having a conflict with the UK.

  25.  @Citadin  It will be an economic "war", that is all it will be.

  26. Yeh in them days working classes knew their place. How dare people want something more, you know, like the classes of society not affected by rationing.

  27.  @mattmcguire1577  Let the eat cake

  28. The Falkland's belong to the people living there who have made it clear through a democratic vote that they do not wish to be governed by Argentina. You do believe in the democratic right to determine who governs you, yes?
