Let 'em have it, I say.

Why the brits feel they can own a piece of land on the other side of the globe is beyond me, really. It's closest to Argentina, and as such it's appropriate for the islands to belong to Argentina.

But I guess the Brits need something to remind themselves of a time when other nations actually cared about them....

Because we can.

Dear oh deary me. Following your logic, Alaska should be Canadian, the Channel Islands should be French, oh and Norway should be Swedish.

Yes, and what would be the problem with that?

Because we can.

Gordon Brown should troll some forums for his e-penis enlargment instead....

Q.E.D.

On a personal level I don't really care, but the people of Alaska, the Channel Islands and even some in Norway might. On a side note, I think they should make you Norwegian envoy to Northern Ireland. I'd love to see the faces of the NI assembly when you address them: "Ladies and Gentlemen, yesterday I took out my ruler and found that NI was right next to the republic of Ireland, but my ruler was not even long enough to reach Wales! Stop the violence!"
