The people of the Falklands voted 98.8% to remain British!
Will Argentina get the message and finally accept that The Falklands will never be theirs? I do not think so I think they will continue like Spain do on their claim to Gibraltar! Both the Falklands and Gibraltar suffer the same problem a bigger country in the 21st Century bullying them so that they change their nationality and give up their home!

Listen to the Falkland Islanders: Drop Your Claim!’ says Chief Minister
Following a referendum in which the people of the Falkland Islands voted overwhelmingly to remain British, Gibraltar’s Chief Minister, Fabian Picardo has shown his, and Gibraltar’s, unqualified support for the people of the Falkland Islands.
‘It is clear to the whole world that the people of the Falklands have made a powerful and robust statement,’ said Mr Picardo. ‘The outcome of this referendum is proof, if any were needed, of the unanimous desire of this Overseas Territory to remain British.
‘The Falklands Islanders have spoken loud and clear – and they are the only ones whose opinion matters. The United Nations guarantees that the people of self-governing territories have an ‘Inalienable Right to Self-Determination’ and, for that reason, the world must listen to the people of the Falklands in their fight against Argentina’s nationalism and sabre-rattling.
‘The Argentinian Government must now realise – whatever it may say in public to save
face – that the Falklands will stay British for so long as its people desire. Argentina must
therefore now drop its claim to the Islands!
