Its undignified for the former world power to bend over backwards, ceding its own territory to appease some bully.
I wonder if this guy wants the Falkland island gone just because the Iron lady kept them British.

So, QE is worse than having a "Government" that has allowed debt to double over the last five years, is it? I wonder why they allowed that to happen. Perhaps it's because they're a load of bankers.
To address the initial point, which was taken from a notorious Tory supporting rag: it is an attempt to stir up the jingoistc, falsely patriotic nature of the uninformed to take their minds off the other points in Mr. Corbyn's "manifesto". It saves their addressing his suggestions for improving social justice.

But they can only do so because of an opportunity the man himself provides. From what I heard I like Corbyn more then I don't but suggesting to give the islands to Argentinia does seem like a piece of bad foreign policy. Perhaps people oppose it for the wrong reasons but that doesn't mean there's not plenty to oppose in this plan.

Under what ruling should there be a joint sovereignty?

Okay kiddies, play nicely. Some of us are old enough to remember Foot and Thatcher, and the fun then. But Corbyn is much more agreeable and presentable than Michale Foot was - and much as i think the woman was an absolute disaster for Great Britain north of Watford, Thatcher earned my grudging respect, and Cameron hasn't.
