Bad precedent for the Falkland Islands... Chagos and then Gibraltar, would force the Falklands issue to be addressed more seriously, and that would be extremely unfair, since the argentine moot argument it's a mere chauvinist temper tantrum, fueled by generation after generation of propaganda conditioning by failed governments.

Love that since you realise your position is untenable, you just refuse to address it so it doesn't evince how untenable your other positions are.

Must give props to English honesty though, most people would be savvy enough to come up with some sophism to cover this reprehensible chain of thought. But it's so ingrained in your minds that you have some divine right to your unlawful colonial holdings you just won't even bother.

PD: get the fuck out of Ireland and allow their Scots their referendum.

A reminder the british government explored handing the Falklands over to Argentina before the war. Fisheries and oil, have changed the view but in times last it was not inconceivable to transfer authority.

To be fair, the situation of the Falklands is very different to Gibraltar.

The Falklands were never Argentinian. The "native" inhabitants are the ones currently living there.
