      Unless you actually served during Operation Corporate, your points raised are irrelevant. Please, don't forget to puff that chest out when you see images of Royalty hey. Then take your Red Pill to understand, that there are over 8,000 Veterans that served this so called Royal Family, aka Benefits Balcony' that are living on our Streets. So remember your Patriotism wont you. Sorry for the reality check, but there it is for you, in all it's Splendour. " I am convinced that nearly all wars are caused so that someone will profit and those who profited and those who are profiting now are the International Financiers, the Jews. Gather together the fifty most wealthy Jewish Financiers, the Men who create wars for their own profits, control them and you will put an end to it all" Henry Ford.

      @@uppercut2246 I agree Maggie did this soley to save polical career as her ratings up to the outbreak of the conflict were in steep decline. The Argentian dictatrors position was aslo extremely precarious. So they both chose the Falklands as a diversion. Most poeple in the UK at the time had no idea were the islands even were The royal navy was also facing substantial cuts post cold war it was the Falklands campaign that effectively saved the RN and the marines. It was a conflict that could have been sorted out with diplomacy but neither leaders wanted to negociate peace.

      you are talking shite on so many levels. Maggie forced the conflict on Argentina. She stopped all diplomatic dialogue knowing full well this would infuriate Galtieri's Junta. Plus she told the sub to sink the Belgrano, this was to make damned sure the conflict went ahead.... Plus the Paras killed a lot of POW's at Mount Longdon.

    Plymouth has always been a Royal Naval Service Town, and a town with input into the Faklands war.I'm glad the Lord Mayor achieved his goal in conducting this parade. I did all my merchant marine training in Plymouth, and my ancestors were part of the town too. The city was flattened by the luftwaffe during WW2 . The Navy boys looked great on parade, and never forget that " OGGIE OGGIE OGGIE" was the original cheer of the Devonport Dockyards at Plymouth; Cor bugger Janners.

    Historical facts; The Falklands were originally a pirates repair for French and British pirates for attacking Spanish galleons, (who at that time didn't know the Falklands existed) going back to Spain. The French pirates were the first there and later British pirates, the French pirates were mainly Breton who spoke a Brythonic language, the British were largely Cornish, Devonian and Welsh who spoke a very similar language (South West Devonians spoke Cornish and English in the 17th century), in fact the Cornish language was a patois of Welsh and Breton, so they got on very well. The Falklands at first were called Les Malouines after the inhabitants of St Malo in Brittany, France. and the Spanish translated Les Malouines into Los Malvinos (which means Les Malouines) on their charts. In France the Falklands are still called Les Malouines. Malouines is the name given to the habitants of St Malo, from where the pirates came from, they named the Falklands after themselves really. So, the Falklands are not or never have been Argentinian, in fact, France can claim the Falklands but legally it won't as the Falklands were claimed by French Pirates and then shared it with British pirates. The Royal Navy cleared out the pirates and colonised it as an outpost in the Anglo-Spanish wars.

Compare this with the US victory parade for Gulf war 1 (a complete cakewalk), the American troops were loaded onto the back of trucks given a flag each and chanted USA! USA! .........

    Sorry, I was a little unclear. What I meant was that we should wait for a few years until it is as unpopular Europewide, as will almost certainly be the case. Then we can pull it apart simply by holding a referendum. Don't get me wrong, I hate the EU too and what it is doing to all the member states. Certainly in the UK the people have woken up to it and it would be nice to get out now, but I think financially it would be slightly cheaper to wait, say until 2016 or 2017.
